MARKET INSIGHTS
According to the National Health Survey data for 2019-2021, a significant portion of women in the country face challenges related to abdominal obesity. Overall, 40% of women are considered abdominally obese; this issue is more pronounced in certain age groups, with 49.3% of women aged 30-39 and 56.7% of women aged 40-49 crossing the cut-off mark for abdominal obesity. When measured using Body Mass Index (BMI), only 23% of women fall into the category of obesity. This discrepancy indicates that some women with a healthy BMI still suffer from abdominal obesity.
Regional differences also highlight the high prevalence of abdominal obesity. Southern states like Kerala (65.4%) and Tamil Nadu (57.9%) and northern states like Punjab (62.5%) and Delhi (59%) show particularly high rates. These statistics underscore a significant health issue that affects a large number of women across various regions. In response to the growing need for size-inclusive fashion, a new wave of women entrepreneurs in India is stepping up to improve the shopping experience for plus-size women.
Recognizing that ‘one size does not fit all,’ these entrepreneurs are making strides in creating fashion that accommodates a wider range of body types. This movement towards inclusivity is not only about providing more options but also about addressing the unique challenges and enhancing the confidence of plus-size women through better-fitting and stylish clothing options.
For example, in 2021, Jeevika Tyagi and Kanupriya Mundhra co-founded Aastey, a Mumbai-based direct-to-consumer startup pioneering sustainable fashion with a focus on size inclusivity. Aastey is India’s first D2C brand to master the production of recycled polyester apparel. This venture not only addresses the growing demand for women’s plus size clothing brands but also exemplifies the innovative spirit of rising women entrepreneurs in the Indian fashion industry.
