Universal Standard, a brand that specialises to clothes for sizes 10-28 has just launched the accessories line that curvy women have been waiting for: plus-size jewellery.
The idea behind the capsule collection is to offer larger ladies the opportunity to wear necklaces, bracelets, chokers and rings that are all designed to fit and flatter their figures.
Universal Standard’s co-founder Alexandra Waldman told Glamour that the reason she was prompted to create the line, was founded in her own experiences.
“I know from personal experience that finding beautiful modern pieces of jewellery that fit and look native to my body type is nearly impossible,” she said. “Even longer necklaces don’t fall in the right spot on the front of the body -everything tends to look clipped, cheap, or semi-disposable.
“I’m a grown woman – I don’t want to wear an adjustable ring that I have to squeeze together around my finger.”
The pieces in the collection are fairly minimalist, start from $40 (£31) and designed to look luxury.
Waldman told Glamour: “Jewellery is just the beginning. We want women above size 10 to feel like they have options, like things are getting better all the time. That’s our reason for being.”
Out of all the gorgeous pieces we are loving this jointed choker. It’s sadly sold out, but you can join the waiting list to snap it up as soon as it’s back in stock.
