This Has Got to Go!Peg Lutz is the CEO, Founder and Lead Designer of Peggy Lutz Plus. She is renown for her long-term, seminal activism in the plus-size fashion industry and continues to create outstanding fashions that inspire not only a loyal clientele, but hardcore fans as well. About a year ago, a studio representative contacted me to inquire about clothes for Kathy Bates to wear in a movie she was then filming with Jack Nicholson. The movie was called "About Schmidt" and my contact described Ms. Bates' character as a former hippie, an artistic, creative, middle-aged woman, living in the Midwest but not really fitting in there.

This is not unique to our time; the phenomenon has puzzled philosophers throughout the ages, from before Socrates to beyond Freud— who wrote, "What do women want?" To his dying day, Freud was never able to find the answer to the question. Likewise, artists throughout the world and time have painted and sculpted the womanly form in every conceivable style, manner and method. [ more ]
