plus size lingerie I need HELP with party ideas I need feedback on my ideas?

Question

Hi
I was having trouble finding sexy lingerie for myself in the larger sizes. When I spoke to friends they too had the same problem So I went looking. I contacted a manufacturer of plus size lingerie. I told my friends I found sexy lingerie in sizes16 to 28 they asked me to order some for them I ordered 20 items and sold it all in the same day. Now I’ve got people asking me if I would do lingerie parties I keep putting them of as I’m not sure how to go about it

I don’t want to get in to the sell this much and you get this or the get 2 party bookings and you get so much of your next order or order this now and you get it in 4 weeks type of thing
This is what I had in mind
I would love some feedback on what you think

The hostess gets to pick something for FREE any piece of lingerie
No ordering If you like something and you want buy it there and then Ok or I’ll do a lay-by
No pressure selling just get a few friends together have a few drinks have a few laughs try on some lingerie

Answer 1

I would say Victoria Secret on the clearance but it is kinda made for smaller girls check out Lane Bryant online and see what they got...might have just what you are looking for.....hope it is of some help!!

Answer 2

I think you have a great idea, Why not have a website so that people can order on line if they like? Also a brochure for mail by request. Are you interested in having others in areas do a showing for you, I imagine you could arrange how it would benefit you as well as they could make some extra income as well. There are many females out there that would love to buy your lingerie, you just need to find a convenient way to get it to them. I would love to hear more about your business, as I am interested because some of us just are busty and instead of full figure we need items that will accommodate those of us that are blessed with doubled D's and up. it is so much of a pain, to get a item that is too large in the waist and just right in the bust. So do tell us how we can see your items. Any way God bless you in your new venture and I am believing you will be very successful.

Sounds like a good idea.

I suggest talking to a lawyer to establish a business name & make sure you are protected from liability suits. (It's amazing what people can file & create a hassle for you.)

Also, have a back up plan for excess inventory or styles that don't sell as well as you expect. (ex. sales or e-Bay)

Here's the link to a publisher of legal books for lay people: http://www.nolopress.com/

Good luck!

Answer 4

I would go to something like that, but only if it was all plus-sized friends. I know that sounds mean, but I would be totally uncomfortable if it was my skinnier friends, too.
That is such a cool idea, really.
