Ashley Stewart: Launches Extended Sizes and Uses Bloggers as Models

Fun fact, my Aunt started in this industry by working for The Forgotten Woman many year ago and went onto owning a very successful upscale boutique called EnToTo Plus in Queens. I worked with her on occasion and she was a pioneer in the field. With that being said, I applaud Ashley Stewart for not only extending their sizing but for using real woman as models.

Ashley Stewart, the premier plus-size fashion brand, is excited to announce the launch of extended sizes (up to a size 32!) in their dress collection TODAY. Gone are the days of oversized muu-muu’s and all black, Ashley Stewart’s newest collection is anything but basic. Featuring printed shift dresses, bold maxi dresses, fitted wrap dresses, and denim and chambray jumpsuits, Ashley Stewart proves women of all sizes can embrace their curves.

Using real women to model their newest collection, Ashley Stewart wanted each woman to flaunt their signature style. Bloggers Alissa Wilson from Stylish Curves, Beck Delude from Manfattan, Tiffany from Lace N’ Leopard and Megahan O’Conner from Little Lime Dress each put their personal touch on Ashley Stewart’s spring 2016 collection.




Ashley Stewart, the premier plus size fashion brand, announces the launch of their spring dress collection in sizes 12-32. Already a brand known for embracing women’s curves, Ashley Stewart’s offering of their trend-right dresses in sizes 28, 30 and 32 allows a whole new customer to express herself through fashion and use the streets as her runway.

We listened. Our customers have been asking us for more sizes and we’ve answered with our most sought-after dress styles,” says Kristen Gaskins, President and CMO of Ashley Stewart. “The collection will include maxi dresses, jumpsuits, and ready-for-work styles, with plans to extend more categories in the future.

Ashley Stewart is launching their new collection and size expansion with real women. Partnering with Plus Model Magazine and bloggers Alissa Wilson from Stylish Curves, Beck Delude from Manfattan, Tiffany from Lace N’ Leopard and Megahan O’Conner from Little Lime Dress, each girl shows off their personal style while showcasing the new Ashley Stewart Spring Dress Collection. Denim dresses, patterned shifts, striped jumpsuits and the signature Butterfly Bra™ allow women to flaunt their curves.

I think it’s amazing that Ashley Stewart has extended their size range because this is something that is needed. When you look at the fashion industry, all of these brands stop at a size 14 and 16, which makes you feel like the world stops at a 14/16. Having extended sizes is letting women know that they too can be fashionable regardless of their size.” – Alissa Wilson of StylishCurves.com

Ashley Stewart extending their size range is very important for the brand as well as an important step in the fashion world. Allowing women who are 28 through 32 to dress for their shape and style is not only exciting but it is an uplifting movement that I am very happy to be part of.” - Meaghan O’Connor of LittleLimeDress.com

Available online at AshleyStewart.com, the new collection launches on March 1st. Given the buzz generated by Ashley Stewart’s industry-leading social media platforms and the national #LoveYourCurvesTour, which kicked off in Dallas over Presidents Day Weekend, the new sizes are expected to be very popular and sell out quickly.
