But what exactly is Plus-Size fashion? 

It is all about embracing your curves with trendy, flattering clothes that exude confidence and style. A fashion which celebrates every body, offering chic options that make you look and feel fabulous because for us Plus-size is more than just a label, it’s a celebration of diversity and individuality in the world of fashion. The term isn’t about fitting into a mold but about breaking boundaries and defying stereotypes and showcasing the beauty of all body shapes and sizes.
According to the size chart a plus-size individual ranges from 1XL-10XL and our brand, The Pink Moon serves this category with utmost perfection.

HISTORY-
Before getting into the current situation of the plus-size fashion industry it’s important to delve into the history of it, so shall we?
Well, until the 1800s all the clothes were made to order. Technological advancements made it so much easier to produce garments in bulk. This led to a reduction of the range of the sizes which were sold and people started having issues with choosing the right size of clothing. In 1904, the first-ever exclusive plus-size store by Lena Bryant was opened. Also, a very interesting fact for you guys is that it was Lena Bryant who coined the term “Plus-Size”. In India, it was in the late 2000s when the term size inclusivity was accepted and understood by larger groups.


What is the difference between a plus-size exclusive brand and an all-size inclusive brand?

1) Tailored expertise- Exclusive plus-size brands such as The Pink Moon specialize solely in catering to larger sizes,ensuring meticulous attention to detail and perfect fit for those curves. In contrast, all-size inclusive brands lack such kind of attention and knowledge needed to provide the best designs for plus-size individuals.

2) Focused Selection- Exclusive plus-size brands curate collections specifically designed to enhance and celebrate curves whereas few all-size inclusive brands design garments keeping smaller sizes in mind and just expand the size to include plus size customers. 

3) Empowering representation- By exclusively serving the plus-size community, The Pink Moon brand serves as a beacon of empowerment and representation, promoting body positivity and self-confidence.
