150 / IN OUR SIZE: PHI FALL 2009

Lately I’ve gone on a bit of a faux fur shopping spree, adding three fur collars and another fur vest to my collection. However I found myself in a bit of a rut when it came to how to wear them. You can only wear a fur collar so many ways right? I started browsing nymag.com perusing through old collections for inspiration and Phi definitely popped out at me. Not only because it was all black but because I could immediately see myself recreating the looks for plus sizes. So I’ve taken 3 of my favorite looks from the collection and re-assembled them using only plus size clothing. I also threw a wildcard one in because I am determined to find a way to make a bodystocking look chic!
