Lovely Lines Boutique – Erica Wilson and Jessica Eudy
Charlotte, North Carolina
Lovely Lines Boutique started as a conversation about how there were tons of cute boutiques in Charlotte, but none where cofounders Erica and Jessica could find trendy clothes to fit their curves. Once they realized the scarceness of plus size inclusive boutiques, they started looking into what it would take to start their own. Less than 48 hrs later on August 18th, 2017 Lovely Lines Boutique was born!
They opened inside of a small gift shop later that fall and quickly outgrew their space. Taking a massive leap of faith, they opened their very first brick and mortar location in February 2018. Once word spread around the community of a plus size boutique, women began traveling from surrounding counties to shop. Their customer base grew into a tribe of women they refer to as “Lovelies”. Lovely Lines Lovelies are their biggest supporters and cheerleaders. They hyped the boutique up so much that they outgrew their location within the first year and in January 2019 moved to a larger space within a strip mall in Kannapolis, NC. Love Lines stresses to customers that their worth is not defined by their clothing size and that they are loved and appreciated!

Bold and Curvy – Andrea Sugg
Chicago, Illinois
As a plus sized woman, owner Andrea Sugg was continuously disappointed with the lack of available options in the area for sizes 14 and up. Too many times she had gone into a business needing an outfit for a specific occasion, only to be directed to a single rack in the back corner of the store. She would settle for something she didn’t like due to the lack of options, and end up never wearing the outfit again. She took her frustration and channeled it into opening up Bold and Curvy Boutique.
When you visit Bold and Curvy in LaSalle, you’ll feel comfortable and relaxed like you’re seeing an old friend you’ve known forever. They offer a variety of price points and styles for all budgets, and always work with customers to find items that fit their needs. They have grown a loyal following of Bold and Curvy customers who are known on a first name basis. The main goal of Bold and Curvy is to provide a safe space for plus sized women to feel comfortable shopping, while also empowering them to love their curves.
