The average U.S. Woman weighs 162.9lbs, wears a size 14, & has been ignored by the fashion industry for years. Apparently the thought is that if you're a size 6 & above you don't care about silly fashion trends & prefer to wear solid lime green tees with colorful martini-print capris. In reality, 'plus-size' women beg to differ (duh). In response to what experts are calling the 'greatest opportunity for growth in retail today', afforable retail giant Forever 21 will be launching a plus-size line called Faith 21 this May. Don't expect a Chanel tweed jacket in a large anytime soon, but at least it's a start!Sources: [theCutblog] [LATimes Image]
