In the decade since I joined the industry, I've moved from being sample sized to verging on plus size; most small-smalls brands stop at just under my size. So I was very pleased to see a new brand pop up a while back; Raven Dreams, made in the UK plus size lingerie and loungewear, all hand-made with passion by Abigail.
This year her collection is sheer black mesh, lace and Swarovski crystal roses, all shot on Loula, who is not only a plus model but tattooed and bright-red-haired to boot.
