Lane Bryant Teams Up With College Students On a New Plus-Size Collection

Plus-size apparel retailer, Lane Bryant, is moving in a chic, game-changing direction. That’s because the company just announced they’ll be collaborating with fashion students at the Otis College of Art and Design in Los Angeles, CA to create a collection of plus-size work apparel. 

“This collaboration is an important step in our continuing mission to change the conversation regarding plus-size fashion,” the company’s president and CEO, Linda Heasley, said in a statement. “Working with the future of fashion is incredibly inspiring, and I can’t wait for our customers to see what these talented individuals designed.”

Last year, Lane Bryant worked with 12 students from the school to collaborate on work-appropriate attire. According to Apparel News, consultants worked with the students, starting from checking out their initial designs to getting said designs onto the runway.

The brand new collection is now on sale, with pieces ranging from $54.95 to $119.95. You can shop the new designs on the Lane Bryant website and at the Del Amo Fashion Center in Los Angeles and the 34th Street store in Manhattan, NY.
