One of world’s most established and popular design brands, Marc Jacobs, is all set to become the first major fashion house that will manufacture an apparel line for women, bigger than size 14.
Although, the fashion label is yet to make an official announcement pertaining the same, Robert Duffy, President of the label wrote on a networking portal, that the idea of manufacturing a plus-size range was in the company’s future plans’ pipeline. But the same will not be available in the stores till atleast next year.
Duffy further wrote that, they were in talks and were also in the very early stage of talking to a partner about the plus sizes.
As of today, labels such as Victoria Beckham, Chloé and Erdem do not manufacture any line larger than size 14. Most designers feel that it is difficult to manufacture apparels for larger women.
