thank you so much for including the Reformation piece in this vlog! it really is so insane and hurtful the way that plus sized people are an afterthought at best and villainized at worst. you aren’t alone in this experience!!!!!

As a larger bodied person I am so sorry you experienced that struggle at reformation - really feels like the rug was pulled out from under you ESPECIALLY with that text. BUT one thing - as much as I hate this moment for you - I so appreciate that you didn't scrap it completely. That feeling you had is so shitty and I'm so sorry but I SO appreciate your honesty because it makes so many of us feel seen, and not alone or alien/wrong because we have a larger body. Clothes fit our bodies, our bodies don't have to just fit clothes and I love you for your bravery to share your experience! Sending you love, and for all of us lets hope we see some mega change about clothing size availability.

I’m so glad you left in the Reformation segment. It happens to me far more often than I’d like to admit. I just went to American Eagle and Aerie today because I saw cute clothes in my size online. I was so disappointed and embarrassed to find out that they didn’t carry any plus sizes in store. There were a few XL items but nothing any bigger. Sucks so much having to stick to accessories only to browse in stores.
@ZombiesEatRaiyne2 жыл бұрын
This!!! Aerie has really been pissing me off with their quiet move of plus sizing back to online only. And they definitely shrank their sizing, too. I ordered an XL bralette, and I already had the same one in the same size in a different color, and it didn’t fit. Sent it back, got another XL. Nada. Got an XXL, and it barely fits. Something doesn’t add up.

I felt this. I’m an XL (16) but often don’t fit the “nicer trendy” brands XL. I am someone who prefers to shop in person and I often feel so defeated after shopping around. So many stores claim to be size inclusive but in reality they either have nothing in their brick and mortar or sell a plus size line that looks like crap. It sucks.

The other annoying thing about Ref clothes is that they run small OR are wildly inconsistent. So in addition to not offering extended sizes, you never really know how things are going to fit. One time, rather memorably, I had five different items of clothing in the fitting room and all five of them were different sizes, I literally had a 2, 4, 8, M, and L while the M and the 8 are technically close in size it just floored me that the size grading varied SO widely from one style to the next. How was I, at the time about a size 4/6/Small, fitting into things marked 2 AND 8. It is insane to me that they won't offer a more robust extended size range.

I’m so sorry about your fitting room experience. As some one who has always been on the plus size range, it took me ages to ever feel comfortable shopping with anyone other than myself. Even if stores stocked plus size items, they are in a different section. Usually uglier, and more expensive. Luckily that is changing a little but fitting room trauma is real.

I went into a store to verify this and made the clerk look at her own size chart and tell me she didn't carry anything in my size and then I went and spent my money elsewhere.
