Plan ahead by purchasing next year’s plus size clothes at the end of the season, because retail seasons usually end about 6 - 8 weeks before the calendar season.

Often, waiting until the end of the season will allow you to find amazing clearance deals, with savings of up to 90%.

When you are plus size, it can be hard to find jeans that are both stylish and comfortable. Most jeans are either too tight in the leg area or cut into the waist and tummy area. The right pair of jeans can make your legs look longer and your hips look smaller, IF you know how to find the pair that fits your particular body type.

Since many plus size jeans are now made from a type of material that stretches, or gives a bit, the first thing to consider when buying a pair of jeans is their stretch. This fabric, made from a combination of cotton, polyester, and spandex, stretches only when and where you need it, providing ultimate comfort while improving your figure. The longer you wear stretch jeans throughout the day, the more they will stretch and keep you comfortable.

During those sunnier months, the last thing a woman wants to do is to worry about what bathing suit to wear.After all, why should it be that just the skinny girls have all the fun on the beach?Regular sized women have just as much right to look good but at the same time don't want to force themselves into a swimsuit that it is too small.  It is no wonder that women think that it can be difficult to buy plus size swimwear that looks good.

Timing is key and you shouldn't wait until the very last minute before you go shopping for your swimsuit.Shops can only stock a limited supply of swimsuits for the plus-sized woman and you wont be the only one who will want to make that purchase.Try to shop in the middle of the week when you will be able to take your time and avoid the crowds.

Swimsuit fit is very important as you don't want a swimsuit that is too tight.  When trying on a potential swimsuit make sure you test it out by doing a few twists, bends and stretches to see how if it feels comfortable and stays in place.

Your bathing suit should have plenty of control and support so it is important that you choose a suit that offers both tummy control and a supportive underwire for your breasts.Swimsuits with more spandex and lycra tend to offer better support and flexibility.

Recently our team at SWAK Designs had an opportunity to take part in an amazing historical event. Our owner Brad Capo sent Rhasaan Perry (VP of Sales/Merchandising) and myself to New York City to participate in the first ever Full Figured Fashion Week produced by Gwen DeVoe CEO of DeVoe Signature Events (DSE) on Thursday June 25 until Saturday June 27, 2009. This event showcased the latest in plus size fashion as well as brought the plus size community together in hope to change the way retailers think of plus size consumers and plus size fashion in the industry today. For those of you who keep up with us and read our weekly articles and blog, you know that we had announced this exciting event and its schedule a few weeks ago urging anyone who is into plus size fashion and the latest trends to attend. So, hopefully you did not miss out on the festivities and were able to attend. If not, you are in luck because I have the details of how it all went down.

The FFFWeek events started on Thursday June 25th with an amazing shopping soiree at Re/Dress boutique in Brooklyn. This event was to welcome all of the out of town guests while they enjoyed premium shopping. Together with Pockets and Purses with a Purposes Tracey V. Bell (Chairman and President, PPWAP) and Kim Coles (Global Spokesperson, PPWAP) customers shopped vintage plus size clothing and were given the opportunity to donate their lightly used purses and wallets for the foundation which later will be bundled with personal care products and counseling services for women/children in Domestic Violence Shelters.

Later that evening they had a designers showcase and networking event with a plus size fashion show which took place at Club Blvd. The fashion show featured fabulous new designs by Ashley Stewart and en.v. New York by designer Just Raymona. Unfortunately, due to our work schedule here at SWAK Designs our team had to miss out on Thursday’s events but by all the pictures out there, the event looks to have been a success for all involved.

The following day we spent the morning fitting some of our beautiful plus size models that were going to be wearing our fashions in the finale runway show. After that we made our debut at the FFFWeek Buyers Market. This sales event was put together to help connect the attending plus size fashion buyers and boutique owners with participating FFFWeek designers and suppliers. This was a great business networking opportunity for us as an on-line retailer and wholesaler. It helped open some new doors and create some great opportunities for us as well as meet some amazing buyers and boutique owners in the plus size industry.
