One of my favorite plus size clothing designers is Yuliya Raquel for Igigi. The company initially started as a cocktail and special occasion dress maker for plus size women — in fact they were known for some of the best styles, but over the last few years they have expanded into exceptional separates that can be coordinated over many pieces and seasons.
You will notice that Igigi has a higher price point but with the added dollar comes a made in the USA promise and a workmanship and fabric quality that is really second to none. Igigi clothing is investment clothing and it is definitely worth it.
One of my favorite pieces this fall is the Emme Wool Wrap in Black ($95). It can be worn as outerwear on a fresh day or as a layering piece. It looks wonderful with their Vintage Skirt in Gray ($65) or even leggings.
In their separates you will find fine suiting. One of my favorites is the three piece Harlow suit (the skirt is $65, the pants are $90, and the jacket is $155) which makes a great addition to any winter wardrobe. The charcoal herringbone tweed is a stylish and polished look whether the pieces are worn together or with other items from your closet.
Igigi currently dresses women size 12 to 32. Be sure to check out these pieces and their Hollywood inspired pieces at Igigi and of course, their cocktail and party dresses!
