With regard to your segment about plussize (or body-positive) fashion: over here (in Europe) almost all plussize fashion for men is of the "basic" variety. So lots of plain colors, and within that a lot of grey, blue, black. And also a lot of the same plaid-ish and stripy prints. It is so frustrating: where is the color? where is a bold print? Plussize fashion for women has a lot more variety, so why am I mostly forced to wear "meh" clothing? (if the shipping costs from the US weren't so high - around 30-35 dollars - I would by more from the US clothing) Also: there are more and more men that fall into the plussize sizes, so there's money to be made here. Yet, most brands seem to be reluctant to provide for that. Or (even worse) seem to be emberassed to offer bigger sizes. I know a number of bigger brands that in their own online shop will stop at XL or 2XL, yet offer these sizes when sold through third-party online shops. Probably because they don't want to 'tarnish' their brand in their own store.
