Around Town: From MAGICLV to The NYDJ Spring Preview

Posted by: Marie Denee March 13, 2012

In February, I was invited to MAGICLV to check out and cover the fashions coming to us for fall. While there, I made my way to the NYDJ booth and was pleasantly and excitedly surprised. See, I learned that Not Your Daughter’s Jeans was expanding their plus size range to include the fabulous bold hues, fashion cuts and prints we are seeing everywhere for spring into fall!! I even included NYDJ in my latest trend report of Bold Colored Denim!

Colored Cords, waxed denim, snakeskin prints… all in plus sizes!

While there, I met their PR who invited me to the Spring Preview to get up close and personal with their line and I happily accepted!

Last week, I headed out to LA to the Sunset Towers to the suite that NYDJ decked out with denim and edible delights! Catching up with Tulin from Plus Model Magazine, Romy of Romy Raves, Jennifer Chan, and LA Fashion Snob was a lovely delight as well!

Once there, we met the head designer (who once upon a time worked for Lane Bryant) who spoke to the shape, trends, and the NYDJ Customer! She knew that the plus size woman wanted fashion AND fit at a great price.

Showing us the latest cuts and fits for spring, the try on session commenced. I fell in love with the Tori Sailor Jean and the cream snakeskin print denim! Interestingly enough, I could play in a few sizes because of the stretch and the shape of the denim. Being a size 16/18-ish, I can waiver between their straight sized 16 and 18 and into the 16W- depending on the cut!

Here is how the Tori Sailor Jeans looked on me:

And the Snakeskin Patterned Jeans:

I cannot wait for all of the New Arrivals to hit the NYDJ Plus Size Section on their site! Not only can you cop them online at NYDJ.com, but you can also check them out at Nordstrom (who buys the most fashion from them!)
