There could be a possible collaboration between Adele and Burberry designer Christopher Bailey for a plus size line inspired by the "Rolling in the Deep" songstress. Adele who has always had an interest in fashion and this possible partnership would "...reflect her position as an ambassador for stylish, curvy women," reports the Daily Mail. 

Burberry invited her to come to the studio with her stylist  and together they worked on creating dresses for the awards season with her. Adele was captivating on the red carpet of the Grammys and BRIT Awards earlier this year and the alliance could spark a new relationship between the singer and the fashion company.

In London the androgynous always wins out and fashion are center around the skinny girl, but this weekend, London Fashion Week celebrated the full figured woman and all her curves. Thirteen designers attended the fashion weekend, but the number was dwarfed by the almost 80 labels showing across town at the official London Fashion Week, where skinny girls still reign supreme.

The London organizers got their inspiration from New York's Plus Size Fashion week, which is in it's fifth year and hope to duplicate New York's success. "At the end, I hope there won't be two segregated shows. But for now, we want to give curvy women an option," said Rianne Ward, one of the organisers of the event and the creator of online magazine Evolve.

I say let's all applauded those who want to continue to stride towards better fashion options for the curvy by showing our full support.

One of our style icons Queen Latifah, has launched her very own clothing line through HSN. The collection is called none other than "The Queen Collection" and it consists of everything from denim, leggings, and hanbags to hair clips. The line debuted  on August 27th.

Queen Latifah says, that her reasons for starting the line, “It is a word we need to bury at this point ... I wanted to make something size two and up,” she said. “The truth is, we all would like to wear the same clothes. We all want to wear beautiful, fly clothes no matter what size you are, and so for me it was important to match with a company that understood and respected that ideal.” She also says, “I felt like larger girls were not respected, even though we are huge consumers,” Queen Latifah said. “I felt the marketplace didn’t respect us in the way it should. I was not going to step out with a clothing line that didn’t respect a fuller-figured woman or a curvaceous woman, and really all women.”

The Queen collection will be priced under $100 for apparel and $170-$300 for leather outerwear and handbags.

QVC is retailing their plus size fashion collection (K-Dash), in addition,  to the Florida and California boutiques, they have added a third DASH in New York, and Sears has signed on with the sisters (Kollection) line.

The sisters launched their own plus size brand, K-Dash. This line is specificly for curvy women – with the sisters curvy figures being the perfect showcase for this fashion line. The line was launched in conjunction with QVC on New York’s Fashion’s Night Out, September 10, 2012. Their line has some interesting offers. K-DASH by Kardashian includes belts, handbags, trendy leggings and tunics coupled with fitted jackets and faux-fur trimmed vests.The price for the clothing is in a moderate range from $25 to $250, don't forget to check out their piece that are on sale. The only issue that I see is that when the items are sold out on QVC, it may take some time to restock the items if at all. Khloe shares some of her favorites items from the line on her celebuzz.com website: http://khloekardashian.celebuzz.com/

To find the sisters plus size fashions, your choices are to either visit QVC for the K-Dash collection, one of the three DASH boutiques, eBay, or shop Sears online and sort through the Kollection line.
