Rixo just presented its new collection at London Fashion Week – and it's full of clothes for every body, regardless of size.
about the state of size inclusivity – or lack thereof. Surveying the size ranges of every brand on the global fashion week schedule, the report found that 'of the 327 industry-approved designers on the calendar, 9% offer clothing in a size 20 or above.' In worse news, London was the worst city on the list. 'London represents the smallest size range overall, with just 1% of designers offering a size 20 or above and 27% reaching a 14,' read the report.
'When you extend your size range it’s not simply just adding a few centimetres on here and there, you really need to take the time to fit the pieces on a model and work out where you’re going to add in arm holes, seams, and zips etc. so that the fit is the same throughout the whole size range. Rixo is about making women feel amazing in their clothes and the fit is a huge factor in this.
LONDON, ENGLAND - FEBRUARY 20: Models pose at the Rixo presentation during London Fashion Week February 2023 on February 20, 2023 in London, England. A lot of these pieces, says Rix, are for life's 'big moments', when you want to wear something that feels truly special but which doesn't cost a small fortune. McCloskey explains her love of art deco was the starting point for the collection: 'My team and I did lots of research into traditional Egyptian techniques and ways we could recreate them in the Rixo way, resulting in prints in various colours that make up the collection.
