What We’re Tracking
Designer Landscape
Independent designers are driving the most interesting innovation in plus size fashion right now and they’re largely doing it without the resources of major retailers. We track who’s building, what they’re making, and which labels are worth watching.
Retail Expansion
More brands are adding extended sizes. Fewer are doing it well. We track which retailers are genuinely expanding their plus size offerings and which ones are treating it as a checkbox rather than a commitment.
Size Inclusion
“Size inclusive” has become one of the most overused phrases in fashion marketing. We cut through the language and look at what brands are actually offering and where the gaps still are.
Market Trends
From price point shifts to category growth, we track what’s changing across the plus size fashion market and what it means for shoppers and the industry alike.
