River Island has recently released their new plus size line, and I have to say I am OBSESSED! River Island is a store I encountered while living in London and loved their clothing, but unfortunately couldn't fit into their smaller sizes. River Island announced back in December of 2015 that they would be releasing a plus size range and it is finally here!

Not only do you have the well-known brand name to these new clothes, but the plus size range is just as fashionable as the straight sized range. The same styles followed through, which is always great for plus size ranges. Although the line is a little pricey, the pieces are all fashionable and great quality. The sizes are from UK 18-24, which is a US 14-20.

RI provides an interivew with plus size model Candice Huffine (one of the models on the website) who states: "I'm a massive RI fan! I always race to store when I get to the UK. The fact that you're extending your size range and staying true to what we know and love the brand for, is perfection. It's clear from the designs that they have been made to suit a curvy woman's body." I couldn't agree more with Candice and I can't wait to try on some of the pieces and see how well they do fit a curvier body.
