About this Event

About 70% of US women wear plus sizes, yet many brands stop designing near a 34-inch waist. Mallorie Dunn, founder of SmartGlamour and Pratt Visiting Faculty, shares original body measurement research and shows how misfit drives overproduction, returns, and waste. Attendees leave with action steps for consumers, designers, and policymakers. In person. For the people making the clothes, and anyone who wears them. Expect frank discussion of body size and time for Q&A.
