Seeing what Ms. Rebelatto had done, watching all that lovely, lovely money going into her coffers, and the other companies thinking, "Well shoot! If we had known those 'chunky' women had money, we'd have produced suitable apparel!" But they didn't because they didn't want their brand sullied by marketing to women they deemed unacceptable. Bummer for them.
