We felt the 67% of American women who wear size 14 deserved to have fashionable activewear that was made exclusively for them.   {Jodi} Having been a part of the garment business for 25+ years and working with others to grow their business, I wanted to always be a part of an organization that I saw hatch and grow. Meeting my partner Stacey enable me to take this leap and explore entrepreneurship.
