The fashion industry is moving forward with a blast and now people are coming to terms with that every size, color and height are beautiful. There has been a recent hike in designers who are using plus-size models for their shoots. There are brands who have come up especially for plus size people.
It was difficult for plus-sized people to find their perfect fit because there were just not enough options. Be in traditional wear, occasional wear or even sportswear. Worry not, now Nike is producing plus size sportswear and also is the first one to produce plus-size mannequins.
Nike said in a press release that:
” To celebrate the diversity and inclusivity of sport, space will not just celebrate local elite and grassroots athletes through visual content, but also show Nike plus size and para-sport mannequins for the first time on a retail space”
Nike has introduced plus-size mannequins in its London flagship store https://t.co/a58jbIy1f0 pic.twitter.com/TYHzwrLjPC

People showered love on Twitter after they saw it.
It's more important to be healthy than it is to be skinny. Anything that promotes a healthy lifestyle is a plus in my book. Positive body image is important to mental health. Big is beautiful too.

I’ll never understand the people who hate on this and say it promotes obesity. Do you want fat people to have workout clothing or would you prefer them to stay fat and just wear big shirts and sweats?

This is great. Plus size people want and need comfortable stuff to workout in.
