Are you looking for an elevated contemporary brand that channels the bohemian aesthetic you have been searching for? As some brands have retracted their approach into plus, forward thinking and innovative brands lean in, to understand and give us what we need. Such is the case with the launch of Joie extended sizes.

We appreciate when various contemporary, mainstream brands extend into plus sizes. Not just a size 18 or 20 and calling it “inclusive,” but those brands that follow traditional sizing, including sizes up to at least a size 3X. At Joie, you can expect bohemian styled plus size options from a size 14 up through a size 28, or a size 0x up through a size 4X.

“More Sizes, Same Joie”

If you are not familiar with the brand, Joie / juh-wa / means Joy in French. You will find this brand in all the top department stores,

Plus size fashion has come a long way, but even with the firsts that we have experienced and celebrated, there is still so much more room to grow! Stitch Fix is on a mission to help add to the newness.

Now listen: We don’t recommend you splurge on too many gifts — unless you got it like that, then don’t mind us. In
