Catering to the nearly 60 percent of women in America who wear size 12 or above, Sonsi's new brand offerings greatly expand the retailer's selection of dresses, separates, party attire and accessories, and brings both high-fashion and vintage-inspired styles to its customers for the very first time.

"We know that our customers like to mix and match from a variety of designers and retailers, so we're always on the lookout for brands that offer our customers fashionable styles that suit their unique body shapes and lifestyle needs. With Re/Dress, Eliza Parker, Ulla Popken and Queen Grace, we've added an incredible range of style options, from vintage-inspired to European classic to contemporary chic."
The new arrivals include:
- Ulla Popken® – Especially for women sizes 12W+ who value beauty and self-expression, Ulla Popken is a top choice for exclusively-designed apparel that is unique, colorful, and feminine and that empowers them to look beautiful, feel beautiful and be confident.
- Eliza Parker -- Offering a collection of stylish career wear, separates, cocktail dresses and fun accessories for on-the-go curvy women sizes 10 to 28, Eliza Parker's founder and designer, Jessica Tenaglia, is known for her artful use of fabric draping in rich jewel tones to flatter curvy figures, acknowledging that not all plus size women's bodies are the same. Tenaglia believes the basis of great fashion is excellent fit with flattering silhouettes.
- Re/Dress -- From its roots as a much-loved Brooklyn-born, vintage boutique for women sizes 14 and up, Re/Dress is a cult favorite among full figured women seeking founder Deb Malkin's unique, vintage-inspired, fashion-forward point of view. With an ever-changing inventory of fresh, retro-chic designs carefully curated by Malkin, Re/Dress' well-edited, vintage-inspired private label collection exudes the brand's hallmark retro feel. Re/Dress also offers a big fashion bang for the buck, with most items -- skirts, dresses, cardigans and harem pants — affordably priced under $60.
- Queen Grace™ – Launched by stylist Marina Zelner, Queen Grace offers high-fashion style exclusively for the contemporary full figured woman.
