I was surfing the internet and randomly stumbled on to a website called Gwynnie Bee. It perplexes my mind that fat chicks have gotten so obese. That even big and tall stores can't cater for them. They instead pay 79 dollars a month to rent clothing that would be in a discount bin at walmart. I wouldn't be surprised if the company does a half-assed job at cleaning. Here is an image link if you don't want to have this in your web history. This is what America has become. A nation that has fat clothing rental sites like netflix.

Won't work. You can't send sail-sized materials through conventional post methods.

Looks like the drapery section of JC Penny was cut into clothing.

It's actually not a terrible business idea, minus the exclusively fat part. I think I saw something like this for men once, but I can't remember then name of it.

I'd imagine dresses will get damaged soon due to excessive sweating and the races dive perfumes to cover up said sweat

Discriminatory and racist against thin women, especially white Eastern European women who happen to be thin.

If a similar service was opened for only thin women, praising their thinness, the howls would start within a couple days. The CEO would have to issue an apology and announce that a shipment of moo-moos is on the way.

The exclusively fat part is what makes it a great business idea. With thin girls, the clothes actually have to fit them well: it's a lot more difficult to rent stuff off the internet without trying it on, meaning the company will lose more money in shipping. Landwhales have more soft, wubby leeway.

Already happened to an extent with Abercrombie.

Abercrombie & Fitch, which doesn't make its womenswear above large, or pants above a size ten, has been accused of purposefully excluding plus-sized customers.
Robin Lewis, co-author of The New Rules of Retail, told Business Insider the retailer's CEO, Mike Jeffries, 'doesn't want larger people shopping in his store, he wants thin and beautiful people.
'He doesn't want his core customers to see people who aren't as hot as them wearing his clothing,' Mr Lewis added. 'People who wear his clothing should feel like they're one of the "cool kids."'

Mr Jeffries told Salon in a 2006 interview: 'That’s why we hire good-looking people in our stores. Because good-looking people attract other good-looking people, and we want to market to cool, good-looking people. We don’t market to anyone other than that.

I'm not aware of him apologizing either. I applaud him for it. Only clothing CEO I know of who basically has the attitude of, "if you want to be fat, fine, but you don't belong in my store wearing my clothes. Take you fat asses elsewhere".

He's not saying it because he's red pill and thumbing his nose at the liberals. He's doing it because he's trying to protect his brand and his consumer demographic. It's kind of like how Gucci, Versace, or Armani could go the j.c. penny route but they prefer to keep things exclusive. The price and exclusivity of locations automatically weed out the "undesirables" for their stores. The better you protect the brand's reputation the longer it can charge a premium. In the case of Abercrombie they deal with a lot more people so they have to keep their brand from dropping to rock bottom..kind of like what happened to Tommy Hilfiger shit.

Let me fix that:

It actually is a great business idea, because of the fat part.

Obese women have a hard time finding clothes that fit their gigantic, non-standard bodies.

A size 3 woman is size 3. What size is a 200 kilo woman?

Plus, they are incredibly lazy and for them, a trip to JC Penny is like hiking up the Himalayas: something that will exhaust all their energy and willpower.

Plus, you have cornered the largest, fastest growing market in north america.

This already exists for thin women. It's called RentTheRunway.

It's one of the few examples of a business that was both started by women and doesn't suck.

Very true. As a non fatty buying clothes of the internet can be very hit or miss depending on sizing, same goes for girls. But when you are a big ole tatter tot all you need is something that drapes over you like a smock and you are in pretty good shape.(figuratively speaking) It's not a bad business idea, and it is a growing market so I wouldn't be surprised to see them make some money.
