A lot of boutiques advertise that they carry contemporary clothing. What exactly is contemporary clothing and can plus size women wear contemporary clothing? There are several different kinds of classifications to describe clothing styles.
Traditional, Conventional, and Contemporary are the most recognized categories. Traditional clothing styles change very little from season to season. Conventional styles cater to middle America, with branded merchandise offered at moderate prices. The Contemporary clothing boutique recieves all of the latest trends in fashion. Usually the styles are in the contemporary boutique a season or two earlier than what one would find in a department store. The mix of contemporary merchandise is updated and the fashion looks are influenced by the latest trends. In our boutique and on-line store at www.blackcatplus.com, we are considered a contemporary store.
Generally, in a contemporary store, the depth of merchandise is limited and the merchandise turnover is quicker because there are not many sizes in each style. The prices vary from moderate to upper. Note that there is a difference between trendy and contemporary.
Trendy pieces usually only last for a season or two at most. Contemporary refers to the fashion category rather than an article of clothing. YES!! Absolutely plus size women should take advantage of the contemporary clothing choices to show off their best features. It is a great time to wear color and take advantage of the updated clothing choices! We do not have to JUST wear pants with elastic waistbands if we do not want to or JUST wear all black clothing because we think it makes us look slimmer if we do not want to--there are more clothing choices now than ever before which can be just as flattering to the plus size woman! If you are on the more conservative side or are not sure, mix and match a piece or two into your wardrobe! How about all of the Mod prints and patterns??--take a look at Black Cat Plus's mod print tops and dresses--we love our Black Cat Plus hatch pattern dress, and we see that you all have liked them as well and we have re-ordered more! http://stores.blackcatplus.com/Detail.bok?no=148
