Forbes Riley to Debut Active Wear for Plus-Sized Women on HSN

Forbes Riley, an actress, TV personality and member of the National Fitness Hall of Fame, will premiere a new line of stylish, plus-size, fitness apparel for fuller-figured women on HSN.  The line is meant to address a chicken-and-egg-type dilemma some fuller-figured women feel about working out.  They want to get to the gym, ride a cycle or take aerobics, but they don’t want to wear the baggy sweatpants or drab, shapeless tops that — for too long — have seemingly been the only active wear choices for plus-size women.  Mindy Grossman, HSN’s ceo, describes the expected appeal of the new line this way, “Women all across the country of varying shapes and sizes can finally feel empowered and ready to embark on the challenge of getting themselves fit and healthy while looking slim and stylish, even before their first sit-up!”  “Love My Body” Active Wear by Forbes Riley Press Release Jul. 10, 2010
