SVOBODA`s Flattering Fits for Plus-Size Women

SVOBODA`s new Spring `06 Collection is debuting at the MAGIC marketplace in Las Vegas. With a stylish choice for plus-size women, SVOBODA`s new line expands upon the trendy, already-popular Specialty Tee, Knit and Denim Collections. Although these were introduced earlier this year, the new collection will be available immediately for pre-orders by industry buyers. Online ordering and shipment will be available as early as November 2005.

`I believe the plus-size fashion industry is finally coming into its own,` stated SVOBODA founder and designer, Jessica Svoboda. `I founded SVOBODA to bring fashion and style to an often-neglected market. I want to empower full-figured, confident women like myself with flattering styles that fit their body shape, and bold colors and complimentary cuts that eliminate the typical drab, wall-flower plus-size styles.`

Featuring energetic shades ranging from `That 70`s Color` yellow to a tropical lagoon-inspired `Blue Wonder`, samples of the Spring `06 Collection will be on display today through September 1st, 2005 in Booth CL18512 at MAGIC. The Italian-inspired collection brings the plus-size market breathable, sexy tops with feminine detailing and flattering wraps, form-flattering trouser jeans in both full and cropped lengths, and a new selection of form-treated denim with hand-embroidered detailing and specialty washes.

In late 2005, SVOBODA will be announcing the launch of two additional fashion lines dedicated to women size 14 - 28, both a white-label, lower price-point line and a high-end luxury lingerie line are slated for release in mid to late 2006. Current denim, specialty tee and fall knit pieces are available in five states and two countries, sold in the U.S. at select plus-size boutiques and department stores nationwide. SVOBODA styles can also be found online at and other chic, full-figured fashion sites.
