THE BOTTOM LINE

-

I feel really passionate­ly about plus-size clothes, being a 6ft tall, size 22-24 woman. Underwear shopping is awful as I can never find pretty, matching lingerie. So I read How Lingerie Got Inclusive (10 Dec) with interest. And although it’s great that so many companies are increasing their range of bra sizes, to be truly inclusive they also need to be looking at knickers. With the exception of Rihanna’s Fenty Savage range, none of them went above a size 20. Meaning I still don’t get to buy beautiful undies. Katie

It’s with huge relief that I recognise how the skinny lingerie model is becoming less of a rule and just one body shape among a sea of possibilit­ies. It helps the girls of now and the future that all their bodies are seen as normal. But breasts are still expected to conform to certain ‘rules’. Where are the asymmetric­al breasts (incredibly common), the visible nipples, the nipples that point down? Breasts are still expected to be even and round and high. Speak to Chidera Eggerue about her fantastic #saggyboobs­matter. We’ve got a way to go but I believe we can get there one day.
