Let's get our treasure trove of local (and very hip) designers to start building lines to include plus-size women? It constantly amazes me that there are no plus-models at Voltage. It's not like the Cities have any great lack of beautiful plus-size women. How about we do it one step better?

Trying to navigate from place to place if you don't live there is a nightmare, and nerve-wracking to boot (and I've heard this from people I know that live there). However, I might be tempted to face all of that if there were more stores carrying a wider range of plus clothing designs. I think this is an idea that needs to be considered, and we also need more stores carrying more designs for larger men. They are pretty limited on where they can shop and what they can buy also (equal opportunity, I'm all for it).
