"I wanted to serve the reader who was above a size 12 but felt like I'd done all I could do as an editor through creating content and I wanted to do something more."Author:Austen TosonePublish date:Sep 4, 2019Lauren Chan, founder and CEO of newly launched Henning, dropped several truth bombs about the accessibility of fashion for women above a size 12 throughout our interview, but one stuck out above all others: "I was working in fashion, but I couldn't get dressed.
"The best way to make size expansion a continued effort is to include women or customers above a size 12 in the process," Chan says. "I can't tell you the amount of times I've put a garment on with a brand with extended sizes where there are glaring issues with it and anyone who has been a plus-size person would have been able to tell that brand about it and correct it as soon as the design phase. It's as simple as that.
"I think that it's the way it's always been done and it takes someone motivated from a personal and emotional place to take it upon themselves to fix this," Chan says. "There are not a lot of mainstream plus-size brands being run by plus-size women. It's a huge financial undertaking, there's a steep learning curve and the way that clothes are made doesn't favor larger sizes.
