It seems to be a larger-than-life dilemma that many women in the U.S. have a difficult time finding something to wear. Why? For some reason, most of our clothing is targeted toward women with less-than curvy and thin figures. The majority of Americans are overweight, and many of those overweight Americans are women who would like to look nice leaving the house. Most of the styles available for plus-size women are boxy, long and "covering", come in a small selection of colors and make it even more obvious that those clothing are being worn because the wearer is overweight. Stores like Lane Bryant make it easier for big ladies (plus size 14 to 28) to find nice clothing that is affordably priced and properly made.
It is important to be healthy, but you shouldn't have to exercise just so you can fit into decent clothing!
