Proof The Plus Size Women Will Spend Serious Money Part Deux

May 17, 2010

Almost 9 months ago I did a post about a stunning Lafayette 148 Coat that retailed for $1,148 and quickly sold out in Sizes 18-24.  The gist of the post was that it was a fallacy that plus size women would not spend money on high end clothing especially if the style in question was something very special.

I was reminded of that post today when I once again stumbled across this Tahari plus size leather jacket on the Saks website:

This leather jacket from Elie Tahari features a beautiful laser cut trim and retails for $1,298 -  already both Size 2x and 3x are sold out.  Are the powers that be in the fashion industry honestly surprised by this because I certainly am not.
