Plus size man, the story

Taglie forti uomo, la Storia

Plus size men's history dates back several centuries, when plus size people had to find ways to tailor clothes to their needs. In the past, clothes were often made-to-measure, so larger-bodied people had to find tailors who could make clothes to fit their measurements.

However, with the advent of mass production of clothing in the 19th century, the availability of clothing in common sizes made it easier for people of all sizes to find ready-to-wear clothing. However, most manufacturers focused on standard sizes, and larger people often had to seek out specialty shops or tailors who could tailor clothes to size.

In the 1960s and 1970s, hippie culture led to an increase in demand for looser, more comfortable clothing, which led to an increased focus on plus-size fashion. In the 1980s, the first plus-size specialty clothing stores were established, pioneering the creation of tailored, fashion-forward clothing for people of all sizes.

In the 1990s, clothing manufacturers began offering a greater variety of sizes and styles, including those for plus sizes. Since then, men's plus size fashion has continued to develop, with a huge range of styles and options available for every person of every shape and size.
