Offering the voluptuous South African woman a glam fashion experience from size 14 up, the brand has carved a niche in the local market by offering curvy women the latest styles and trends in cuts that are flattering on the fuller figure.
"We've been overwhelmed by the positive reactions from South African shoppers to our ranges since opening in Sandton City," says Richard Mudie, country GM of the Specialty Fashion Group. "The local market had been waiting for a brand such as this to arrive and fill a much-needed gap in the local fashion industry. We've got a plan to open stores nationally and the new store in Pretoria, plus the third store we will be launching in Rosebank in July, is part of our journey to bring glamorous plus-size couture to the entire country."
The new Menlyn store has a high street 'New York' loft experience with digital footage showing the latest figure flattering trends. The secret behind range lies in the quality materials, flattering cuts and dazzling designs that make women feel fabulous. Whether it's the 'Booty' cut jean (designed specifically for the local market) that first pulls women in or its range of exquisite lingerie (available in sizes not usually catered for in South Africa), the brand offers fuller figured women an original shopping experience.
New collections include Chicago, Enchante, Forbidden, Royal Winter and Imperial Palace, boasting winter styles that are perfectly on trend, with the Aztec prints seen on the runways and bold colours (royal blue, red and gold) currently taking the fashion world by storm. There is a range that caters for every occasion - from everyday street and fashion wear to work wear, evening dresses and striking accessories.
