NYC and Chicago Fats: Pay Attention

By | January 7, 2009

For the NYC fatshionistas: the hotly-anticipated answer-to-all-my-fat-vintage-seeking-prayers Re/Dress NYC has opened its doors at 109 Boerum Place in Brooklyn. Re/Dress is being hailed as a fat version Beacon’s Closet/Buffalo Exchange, and has already been honorably-mentioned on Racked’s list of top ten new stores of 2008. Incidentally, coats are 30% off this week. Expect a more thorough personal report from me after my planned pilgrimage down that way later this month.

For the Chicago fatshionistas: The Bridal Salon in the Macys on North State Street is having a Bara Luxe trunk show specifically for plus-sized brides. The trunk show will feature sample gowns in sizes 16W, 20W, 24W and 28W for trying-on, and any gowns ordered during the show will get a 10% discount. The company director as well as one of their designers will be on hand as well. The sale takes place January 23rd & 24th, from 10:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. on Friday, and 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. on Saturday, at The Bridal Salon of Macy’s, 111 North State Street, 4th Floor, Chicago, IL 22314. You can call 312-782-3545 for more info.
