Did you know that at the beginning of every season, we hold a fashion show with all the new products? Our Design and Merchandising teams show off the results of their hard work and our Customer Service Team members as well as the Web Team examine the clothing in detail. We touch the fabric, examine the seams and details, admire the designs and prepare to answer your questions. MiB customers have discriminating taste and expect the best plus size fashion has to offer! And we expect nothing less of ourselves.

Love Your Body with MiB!
October 20, 2010
What's New at MiB!
Sally E. Smith is a passionate supporter and advocate "As plus-size women, it can be a challenge for us to love and appreciate our bodies. After all, we’re constantly bombarded with media and advertising messages that clearly communicate that we don’t measure up to societal standards of beauty. We may be told by those who are supposed to love us unconditionally that we would be more lovable if our bodies were smaller. We are subjected to indignities small and large as we move about in the world."
Love Your Body - Today and Everyday!
for plus-size women. She has been the editor-in-chief for BBW Magazine and was
the executive director of NAAFA for 11 years. She is also a long-time MIB
customer and we are very excited to feature a series of her articles written
from the perspective of a plus size woman.

Why buy MiB?
We are the world's best designers of plus size and super plus size fashion! That's it. That's all we do. And we guarantee your satisfaction, 100%.
Other companies stop at size 22. Maybe, just maybe, they go up to a size 24 but for us, size 22 is where we get started! We know plus size fashion and super plus size bodies. We don't take a size 6 and just make it bigger. Plus size and super plus size bodies have different dimensions and curves and MiB has been perfecting our patterns and designs for over 26 years. We pride ourselves on our quality clothes. We seek out the highest quality fabrics, we work with socially-responsible vendors and our designs? You can't get them anywhere else.
Next time, I'll tell you about our Quality Control process. It's brutal. Our eagle-eyed QC team can spot not just the smallest flaw - they see the potential flaw in a garment. Really. I'll fill you in next time. And our new Returns Policy! Check it out - 100% Satisfaction. It's that simple.

Skirts!
Let's talk about skirts. I've talked to some of you who were looking for skirts and now I want to hear from the rest of you: What style of skirt works for your curves? I love skirts that I can wear over tights or leggings in the winter or with sandals and bare legs in the summer. I like all different lengths but most of my favorites are knee-length, A-line skirts.
Let us know what style of skirt works for you! We're always updating our plus size designs and put many of our customer suggestions into production.

Cry 'Til You Laugh!
This Just In - New Video "Have a Bawl" by Kim Brittingham
Well, she's done it again! One of our most talented & loyal customers, Kim Brittingham, just launched her latest "Kim Weighs In" video, "Have a Bawl", on YouTube.
Once more Kim is wearing some of our MiB Styles during the video.
This latest video is an hilarious take on the importance of crying. Kim is both humous and convincing as she outlines and demonstrates why crying is so important for both our physical and mental health.
Kim's new video certainly won't make you cry...except for laughing yourself to tears, but her message is a good one and we agree.
Check out how fab Kim looks in our Embroidered Tunic and Milano Tunic!

Please excuse us now...we have to go and have a "good cry"!

Spring Styles are Sizzling Hot
That's right...Spring has sprung at MiB!
We've just launched our new Spring 2010 Collection on our site and already some outstanding styles are selling fast.
Our Jazzy Tee, for example, or our "runners up" for Top Spring Sellers, the Aztec Shirt and the Artist Tunic. All of these winning styles have the same things in common...they are unique, make you feel good when you wear them and will get you loads of compliments, whether you're at the office or your favorite cafe.
Sizzling Jazzy Tee
The Jazzy Tee (pictured at right)

The Jazzy Tee features: bold black and white ovals with bursts of lime, short sleeves, v-neckline, 96% Cotton with 4% Spandex for a comfy fit. Machine wash, dry flat or tumble dry Low. 33" long in size H. Imported.

Sizzling Aztec Shirt
The Aztec Shirt (pictured at left)
is another Spring Best Seller that gives you the flexibility and pizazz you'll need for a great Spring Wardrobe! If you liked our Tempest Oversize Shirt, you'll love the boldness of our plus size Aztec Shirt. Bold swaths of color leap out from a field of black with the same design and silhouette as our ever-popular Short Sleeve Oversize Shirt. It features: short sleeves, button front, collar, shirring on front near shoulders, 100% Crinkle Rayon. Hand wash. 34" long in size H. Imported.
Just like our Jazzy Tee, the new Aztec Shirt pairs perfectly with any of our black pants or skirts...a great new wardrobe basic for Spring 2010!
Sizzling Artist Tunic
Forget boring! The new Artist Tunic (pictured at right)
lets the world know you have your own unique style. Over the years, we've found that our artful designs sell best, and the Artist Tunic is no exception to this rule!
This hot, new hand-painted, plus size Artist Tunic is wearable art that will transport you to a world where creative genius meets ultimate comfort. Pairs perfectly with black MiB Leggings and black Venus Pants. The Artist Tunic features: hand-painted print, oversize fit for all day comfort, short kimono style sleeves, rounded neckline, 100% Rayon. Hand wash. 36" long in size H. Imported.
Be sure to add this versatile piece while your size is still available!
Best Prices on Favorites - Fall & Winter Clearance Bargains!
We recently marked-down many of our cutest Fall and Winter Styles. Now is the perfect time to pick up some great bargains that are on Clearance while they are still in-season, cold as it has been. No need to wait until Summer to get your favorites for next Fall and Winter!
Here are just a few of the MiB Styles that are included in our Clearance Sale. Now that they've been marked-down sizes are selling out fast.
The Twill Swing Coat
Customers raved about this great all-season Twill Swing Coat (pictured at left)
this year and for good reason. It's a great layering piece and the colors go with everything.
Read what one of our customers said about her new Twill Swing Coat:
"After looking at this coat online for many weeks and reading reviews I called MIB and talked with one of the staff about fabric, cut etc., and decided to take a chance and ordered it . I am SO GLAD I did. The fabric weight and feel is wonderful! I love that it has no lining which prevents bulkiness in the sleeves and and overall. I can move my arms freely with no pulling or bunching. I ordered it in my correct size J and the fit and length are great. After having many coats, jackets that zipped up the front ( only to have the zipper fail eventually at the feed ) it is nice to have coat with buttons which are much easier to repair/replace. In the online pic the collar looks huge and overlaps the models shoulders which was one of my concerns, however it is not as big as shown and is actually quite flattering and different but does not get in your way. The silhouette is only slightly fuller than I'd like towards the bottom third of the coat but actually allows for more comfort and maneuverability. Oxford color is lovely and it's machine washable to boot. I am very, very pleased!!" --Charlotte E.
Textured Pullover Sweater
Cozy up in our popular Textured Pullover Sweater (pictured at right).
Sweaters are a lasting wardrobe investment and this classic pullover with designer touches will become a perennial Fall & Winter favorite in your closet.
Here's what one of our MiB customers said about her new Textured Pullover Sweater:
"Very warm but not hot, sleeves are long enough to be turned up. I haven't had a sweater I liked in a Long LONG time. AND GREAT PRICE. Oh looks great too, I'm a G." --Janet
Throw it on, layer it, wear it under your favorite coat and you're ready to go shopping, take your dog for a walk, go to the park or go for a pleasant weekend bike ride with friends.
