Noted for her ability to find contemporary, high fashioned, impeccably fitting fashions
for the Curvy.Confident.Chic. plus size fashionistas, through the blog, The Curvy Fashionista, Marie Denee, is a trailblazer and fashion enthusiast for plus size women.
While many retailers are downsizing or removing their plus sized departments, other retailers are discontinuing anything above the size 14. The remaining centralized designers give few if any fashion forward options for their confident, classy, and curvy woman. This leaves the plus size woman lost to retail purgatory. All the while many young, curvy women say they are belittled in stores, relegated to buying online — or ignored.
With this lack of a fashion forward, classy, high-quality, retail boutiques for the average curvaceous woman, Marie Denee recognizes and proposes to assist the need for this consumer.
Marie Denee is an upscale contemporary online boutique that offers today’s fashion forward, curvy, confident, and chic plus size woman, a haven where she can confidently shop the latest designer fashions in her size, without sacrificing her desires for premium, fashion forward, and impeccably fit options.
Carefully edited and sourced from all over the globe by designers who see fashion beyond a size 12, Marie Denee will feature lifestyle apparel and accessories from designers like Gayla Bentley, Kingley & Posh, Embody Denim by Natalie Wakeling, Melissa Masse, David Kahn Jeanswear, BGU and Amanda Uprichard, Oola Lingerie, Marie Melodie and many more.
With a preview set for late August 2009, Marie Denee will launch September 2009. Disgusted with the limited choices in high fashion, Marie Denee stands to deliver women with similar fashionable frustrations an outlet and forum to satisfy the desires of other Curvy.Confident.Chic plus size fashionistas and those who aspire to be.
Marie Denee’s philosophy is “Never let your Curves define your Style – Let your Style define your Curves.â€
