The Story Behind The Regal Recall – Plus Size Purple Jacket
They say purple is the color of royalty. But for years, I couldn’t find a single leather jacket in this shade that was made for someone like me.
I remember standing in a boutique in Manhattan, where racks were lined with slim-fit leather blazers in deep violets and plums and asking,
“Do you carry this in plus sizes?”
The salesgirl barely looked up. “No demand,” she said.
But I was the demand. I am the demand.
That evening, I went home and opened my old sketchbook.
And I asked myself: What would I have worn if I had been seen as regal all along?
Why I Designed This Plus Size Purple Jacket
This wasn’t about trends.
It was about recalling the part of me I’d buried under years of stretchy compromises.
The professional, bold, intentional woman who deserved sharp tailoring, rich color, and confidence without apology.
So I chose a purple that wasn’t too sweet but strong, mature, and luxe. And I built the silhouette around the real architecture of a plus-size body:
-
Broader shoulders
-
Softer curves
-
A longer line that flatters from every angle
-
And no pulling at the buttons. Ever.
Why the name?
Because The Regal Recall isn’t just a name.
It’s a message:
That power, beauty, and presence were never out of reach, they were just waiting for the right fit.
This is for the plus-size woman who’s finally ready to take up space in the boardroom, the brunch table, or the boulevard,
Not with apology.
But with memory. With style.
With her crown back on.
