11 Honoré Launched Its Own Plus-Size Line
The collection, which ranges from around $100 to $600, comes in three drops: The first, out today, is a play on dressy casuals (think: a shirt dress with pockets, a stretchy slip dress), the second will feature stylish sweatshirts, sweatpants, and T-shirts, while the third will nod to workwear with blazers and trousers. “Through these three drops, they literally will hit every piece of your lifestyle, whether it’s to work with your blazer and your trouser, or you want to switch it up and add jeans to go out on the weekend, if you want a date night look, if you’re lounging in the house...” Danielle Williams Eke, the brand’s design director, told Refinery29 on the phone last week. “It’s a lifestyle brand in that it can hit every piece of your life.”
When designing the line, according to Williams Eke, the fit was of the utmost importance. “I’ve been in the plus-size industry for a long time, and I tried on just about probably every plus-size brand out there,” she said. “One of the things that’s the hardest is the fit.” With this in mind, 11 Honoré tackled the issue head-on by using a plus-size fit model. “A lot of brands still fit on dress forms or they’re only fitting on a smaller-size fit model and just grading up, so we wanted to make sure that we fit on a true size 18 fit model because you really get to see how the clothes feel and how the fabric moves or doesn’t stretch enough,” Williams Eke said.
The second part of the process was grading for other sizes, to make sure the style looks the same on size 12 as it would on size 26 — something that many still get wrong by simply sizing up. “How we addressed this was grabbing a group of women in our office ranging from size 12 to 26, and we tried clothes on them in their sizes. This allowed us to tweak our grade rule. It’s a tedious step but, for us, it was absolutely necessary to make sure that we gave consistency through fit regardless of what size you were,” she says. “Within the industry, it’s kind of glamorized that all plus-size women are just an hourglass, very voluptuous shape, and that’s just really not the case. There are so many different plus-size body shapes out there, and so we wanted to make sure our clothes fit different shapes.”
The brand also took fabric into account, making sure that each one had a stretch to it, including linen which rarely comes with a stretch in straight sizes but especially not in plus sizes. “One of my pet peeves are plus-size brands who use only fabric with no stretch or rigid fabrics in plus-size clothing. All of our fabrics have at least some stretch,” says Williams Eke. “This really lends itself to getting the perfect fit.”
The collection features a neutral palette of white, cream, black, and a mushroom brown; for the “pop,” the brand selected a stunning mirage blue. As for the silhouettes, Williams Eke says the team wanted them to be timeless, with pieces that could easily be mixed and matched with, yes, each other but also with items that are already in their customers’ closets. For inspiration, they looked at Donna Karan’s Seven Easy Pieces.
“She created this capsule wardrobe of items that you can mix and match… whether for work or play, and that’s where we really found inspiration and wanted to apply to our collection,” she says. “We kind of built our assortment off of that.” In addition to the linen shirt dress, that can be worn as a dress and a duster, the first drop includes a belted jacket, that can be worn as a top or a throw jacket; high-waisted satin trousers that can be styled with sneakers or heels; and satin separates that can also be worn as a matching set.
With the price falling just under the contemporary point of other brands the retailer carries, according to Williams Eke, the line “is refreshing for our returning customer but also opens the door to new customers coming in.” In addition to expanding its customer base, she hopes the line will fill a void in the plus-size fashion by offering clothing that’s not super basic but that’s also timeless and well-made.
“I do often feel like the fashion industry looks at plus-size as an aesthetic, as opposed to a market within the industry that could have multiple aesthetics and multiple customers. And I think in the same way that there’s a range of brands for straight-sizes, there should be a range of brands and offerings for plus size, and I think that includes high-end and contemporary fashion,” she says. “The more the industry can look at us as not just one thing and one woman and as many women — because let’s be honest the population of plus-size women in America is large — the more we can tap into that, and the better the industry will be.”

Patagonia, REI, & More Are Boycotting Facebook
On Sunday night, eco-conscious brand Patagonia released a statement via Twitter announcing its plans to join the Stop Hate For Profit campaign, a growing advertiser boycott of Facebook. Concern over the social media giant started during the 2016 U.S. presidential election, with pressure mounting ever since. Now, the NAACP, Color of Change, Free Press, and a number of other civil rights groups are calling out the platform’s controversial policies surrounding hate speech and misinformation. On Wednesday, following a month of protests sparked by the death of George Floyd and other Black people at the hands of the police, the organizations urged advertisers to pull all sponsored posts from both Facebook and Instagram (which Facebook owns) during the month of July in order to show the company that its consistent inability to curb hateful content on both platforms will not be tolerated. The announcement was released via an ad in The Los Angeles Times.
Since, North Face, REI, Upwork, and, now, Patagonia, have agreed to join the boycott.
Patagonia is proud to join the Stop Hate for Profit campaign. We will pull all ads on Facebook and Instagram, effective immediately, through at least the end of July, pending meaningful action from the social media giant.
— Patagonia (@patagonia) June 21, 2020
In Patagonia’s statement, the company’s head of marketing Cory Bayers explains that the boycott will be effective immediately and, for now, will run through the end of July, with further measures being considered if Facebook doesn’t take “meaningful action.”
“For too long, Facebook has failed to take sufficient steps to stop the spread of hateful lies and dangerous propaganda on its platform,” Bayers writes. “From secure elections to a global pandemic to racial justice, the stakes are too high to sit back and let the company continue to be complicit in spreading disinformation and fomenting fear and hatred.”
According to Hypebeast, Vans and Timberland are next in line to join the Stop Hate For Profit campaign.
The topic of canceling Facebook has been up for debate for years now. In 2017, Facebook confirmed via a case study of the election that groups had used the platform to sway the outcome in favor of Donald Trump, according to a CNBC timeline. And then came the Cambridge Analytica scandal, when it was reported that the political consulting firm accessed data from 87 million Facebook profiles in order to manipulate voters into supporting Trump’s campaign. The FTC investigated and Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg testified (badly). Senator Elizabeth Warren called for the end of Facebook, and so on. Still, the company persevered. But now, we’re seeing firsthand just how powerful public opinion can be when committed to a common goal amidst the Black Lives Matter movement. This move by North Face, Patagonia, REI, and more prominent fashion companies could quite possibly force Zuckerberg to finally take action.

14 Black-Owned Swimsuit Brands To Shop This Summer
Burberry Announced An “Immersive Show Experience” For All In September
Burberry is going ahead with a runway show this September — though it won’t be like those of years past. The presentation of the Spring/Summer 2021 collection, which the brand describes as “an immersive show experience set in the British Outdoors,” is scheduled for September 17, a day before the start of the London Fashion Week. But it will only be attended by the models and the Burberry team, and otherwise streamed digitally “for all” who’d like to watch.
“As humans, we have always had a deep affinity to nature. We have had to respect and rely upon its power for our very existence, whilst marvelling and revelling in its extraordinary beauty,” Burberry’s chief creative officer Riccardo Tisci said in a press release of the outdoor event. “Especially recently, we have all yearned to reconnect again and for this show, I wanted to celebrate these feelings by bringing our community together in a creative experience that takes place within the beautiful, natural landscape of Britain.” Like the last two Burberry runway shows, the experience will be certified carbon neutral.
The British company is the first major brand to confirm a runway show for the Spring/Summer 2021 season. Since the pandemic began, many cities like Shanghai and Sydney have canceled their respective fashion weeks, while others like London turned its June showcase into a digital event. On the other side of this, fashion week mainstay brands, like Gucci and Michael Kors, have abandoned the fashion week calendar altogether this forthcoming season.
“I felt that through this concept, we could open new spaces to our community around the world and give everyone the opportunity to experience it together,” Tisci told WWD of the digital component. “As most people are unable to travel, it was important for me to create a space where anybody would be able to engage with, and immerse themselves in the show experience. I am so excited for everybody to be involved.”
The news is prompting the question if other brands will follow suit with a physical-digital format for the Spring/Summer 2021 fashion month. While the official plans for fashion week events in New York, London, Milan, and Paris have not yet been announced, it’s safe to assume that it will be an unconventional season, with many more digital events, as well as social distancing measures and precautions like masks for attendees — if there will be attendees at all.
