'The plus-size section is always the smallest in the store. It feels like we don't matter.'

"I get so frustrated at how many brands decide to make their plus-size options far less trendy and fashionable than their straight sizes. There’s just as many plus-size women as there are straight-size, so it makes no sense to ostracize that many people when it comes to fashion trends."
