WELCOME!!

So great to see you!! Lately as you may know, Entitled has undergone some pretty massive upheavals. It's been more like demolishing, gutting, excavating and rebuilding, and here we are. We have arrived at the most exciting place yet taking in the very vast view!! Now first and foremost, please don't despair - this is not another soft sell blog. I am not here to sell you product and spruik about how wondrous we are are why you need to spend your hard earned cash here! This blog is multipurpose - it is a place and a forum where hopefully, we can find a point of connection to you, and you to us. That perhaps here we can become something more then a website trying to get your business. Any of you who have had personal experience with Entitled pre-online days understand that the crux of the business has always been our personal interactions and "fashion interventions" with our wonderful women who want something more then the "blah, blah coverup-and-be-quiet-fashion" previously delivered to us by the plus size industry. SO as your head designer, I am here to assist you, in just a small way, with your fashion dilemmas as well as help you navigate the rocky a treachourous waters of being woman of fashion fabulousness!
We are going to be looking at how to wear "What not to wear" - and trrrust me, despite what Trinny and Suzannah say, all of the rules CAN be broken and when you can pull it off, you are in a new style stratosphere and you will be know to have - yes- your very own signature. Not important to some, but I am a firm believer that just as we all have our own voice, smile, song or attitude, our fashion signature is something which should be explored, developed and discovered.
For me on my own personal journey, as I started to wade through the complex and sometimes treacherous path to self acceptance, my fashion signature became stronger and more defined in direct proportion to the flexing of my "I-like-what-I-see-of-me" muscle. That muscle has gained strength over time, and now as it is worn in my signature fashion choices, it looks ok :) SO here I am. Soon we will have a situation where you can e-mail me ANY of your fashion questions and/or dilemmas and I will endeavour to answer them to the best of my ability. What to wear to a barefoot cocktail wedding (yes it has happened), how do I looks sensual without exposing my arms (yes that's another biggie), can I ever wear jeans - whatever your dilemma is! It means that you will pretty much have access to your own personal stylist. AND it won't all be about directing you to Entitled pieces - it will be answering any questions and helping you solve any fashion dilemmas or tricky spots you may have. BUT more of that next time.
In the meantime Bellas, thankyou for the read! It was but a small introduction into what is coming and I do hope that you will journey with me on your own journey of fabulousness!
Much love
Your Designer of Fabulousness (Y-DoF - hmmm maybe not the acronym.. ;)

oh designer goddess.

Thankyou thankyou thankyou, many of us women often fall outside what most plus size companies offer. Yes i sooooo hate elastic and when i do have to wear it in a garment i dont feel sexy at all.
Im impressed with this range, it is sexy,stylish and definately individual yet my personal style can still shine through.

I love it!!
thanks sarah

Ms Designer of Fabulousness,

Do you make jeans for the classic apple shape? I have such a horrible time trying to find jeans that fit me. I find they are not wide enough in the waist (unless they have elastic- UUGGGHHH!!) So I have to go up ateast 2 sizes to make them fit around the waist, then they are baggy in the bum,legs way too long, and wide enough in the legs to park a A380 boeing plane in them! So other than the 200 sit-ups a day to try and shift this obscene gift from the Michelan Man from my waist, do you have any miraculous pairs of jeans that will fit me? I also have the same problem with belts, they make them in China to fit Chinese people (no offence meant, I would love to be that petite). I wish that the mainstream designers would actually go out and get the average Aussie girl and measure her up, I'm sure they'd be surprised. I am glad I stumbled across your store, and I will be buying from you....I just have to get rid of some debit from my credit card first....atlast some clothes with style. I normally shop at Autograph...and occasionally they have some good pieces, but grab them quick....they don't last long. Then hope to god that the next outing/function you go to that half of your friends aren't wearing the same thing. Now I won't have that problem. I'm sorry...but I'm going to be selfish....I'm not passing your website on to my friends, i'm keeping you for myself!!!!
Thanks Sam
