Need a little inspiration? We are kicking off Plus Size Bridal Week with a spotlight on YOU, the plus size brides who took our breath away and stunned on their big day!
The ONLY Plus Size Designer to Show DURING Milan Fashion Week: Elena Miro Fall 2011
Absent her regular showing at Milan Fashion Week, Elena Miro still delivered. The collection brought high fashion to the sophisticated, discerning, and fashion forward plus size woman. With a fall collection true to her core, Elena Miro showcased during Milan Fashion Week. The Elena Miro Fall 2011 Collection gives us all of the feels. For those of you who love a dark mood, you are in for a treat!
This season, however, Elena Miro changed things up a bit with their new social media presence. Presenting a live feed of the collection on Curved Italia with Elena Miro, they allowed YOU the chance to give feedback about the collection. Not only that, you could chat with other fashion fans, vote for each piece, and tweet your favorites!
If I were a high powered executive, a lady who lunches, or a blue blood socialite (read: UBER SOPHISTICATED and CLASSY) these would be some of my go to looks…
Our Favorites from the Elena Miro Fall 2011 Collection
For Fall, Elena Miro opened up with hues of blue, gray, and wine all accented with lace, fur, sequins, and sheer. Tailored suits, ladylike coats, mid calf skirts and high-waisted pants drew elements and inspirations of a lady-like era. As one of our leading designers who have crossed over into mainstream fashion, with exquisite execution and a distinct perspective, Elena Miro’s Fall 2011 Ready-to-wear designs inspire.
Elena Miro is only available in one place in the US! Where?
Lisa Todd! A boutique in Coral Gables and Boca Raton in Florida! This Boutique specializes in “Casual to Couture” from sizes 12- 24! They ship worldwide and offer personal shopping services! I am not sure if they STILL sell Elena Miro, but they are the only place I KNOW of that HAS carried her collection!

I am the Editor in Chic of The Curvy Fashionista. Often goofy. Forever emo. Always a Virgo. You can find me somewhere grooving to 90s R&B.
I may need to make a trip to Florida just to go to the shop (or at least a phone call to see.) I was sooo fortunate on my recent trip to Italy to go to Elena Miro and buy some amazing, versatile pieces. Amazing line with great quality, nowhere near as expensive as Marina Rinaldi. For me, the clothes fit better, too, as I’m not very tall and on the smaller side of plus. If anyone ever has the chance to try some of her clothes, you MUST!
Now all you make me want to do is raid your closet! LOL
Very classy pieces. I especially like the silver ones.
Lace is really the “in” thing for the season. I think its classic, elegant yet trendy appeal will never go out of style.
