I also like to wash my jeans inside out and never ever put them in the dryer, and I get the waist/seat tailored (a relatively easy and cheap alteration) if needed.&nbsp;<div><br /></div><div>And: this is NOT a nitpick to you, but rather to the author.&nbsp;</div><div><br /></div><div>I can tell that the author has never shopped for plus size vintage or raw denim based on the first 3 points, especially that first sentence, which is not at all accurate for those outside the size range found in vintage markets.&nbsp;</div><div><br /></div><div>“Start&nbsp;with vintage:&nbsp;Whether you are a denim aficionado or a student on a budget, you can find jeans to suit your budget and your style if you shop secondhand.</p> <p><div>“Raw is best:&nbsp;Raw denim hasn’t been washed and treated multiple times. This is what denim used to look like before we started to sandblast, bleach and rip it to make it look old. Buy a pair of unwashed jeans and let them age with you.</p> <p>“Avoid stretch:&nbsp;Let leggings be leggings and jeans be jeans. One hundred per cent means the denim in your jeans can eventually be recycled.”</div></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-bi-weekly-links-here-82#post-2098394 Tue, 11 Feb 2020 05:44:47 +0000 Kari 2098394@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Loving this plus sized NYFW collection (finally!) by Rene Tyler, especially that floaty black/white gown, and this swingy sparkly gown.&nbsp;</p> <p>”Plus size designer Rene Tyler was the only designer who featured a full fledged plus size collection. In addition, all her models were plus size.”</p> <p>”You would have thought I was a parent at a school play screaming for their kid when one plus size model after the other strutted down the runway. These models weren’t your typical size 10/12 plus size models. They were larger models and worked those pieces with pride.”</p> <p>Rene Tyler’s pieces go from size 12 to 6X. Absolutely awesome.&nbsp;<div><br /></div><div><a rel="nofollow" href="https://stylishcurves.com/this-plus-size-designer-stole-the-show-at-new-york-fashion-week/">https://stylishcurves.com/this.....hion-week/</a><br /></div><div><br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-bi-weekly-links-here-82#post-2098364 Tue, 11 Feb 2020 03:15:27 +0000 Jaime 2098364@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I found this story illuminating about how far we all still have to go, although I have never watched the show.<br /><div><a rel="nofollow" href="https://themuse.jezebel.com/next-in-fashions-eliminated-designers-on-the-fight-for-1841393792">https://themuse.jezebel.com/ne.....1841393792</a><br /></div><div></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-bi-weekly-links-here-82#post-2098334 Tue, 11 Feb 2020 00:09:49 +0000 Anonymous 2098334@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This may go better with fashion news, but there's a new size and color inclusive underwear/shapewear brand at Nordstroms called skims.
