Face to Face News! Girls, Hold onto Your Girdles!
The first city for the Manolo Big Girls Face to Face will be announced tomorrow!
If you want to cast a vote for your city, be sure to comment. If a city gets enough votes, we’ll try to work it in to this or subsequent tours.


I’m from St. Louis–it would be wonderful to see y’all here, or somewhere in reasonable driving distance (Chicago, KC)
Re-commenting for New York, yo.
New York!
Chicago!
It would be great to see you in NH – although about the only draw is Primary Season… not exactly fashion related. We have 3 “major” cities here – Manchester, Nashua, and the capitol Concord, all within about 30 minutes of each other.
Washington, DC!
I vote for somewhere in the Cleveland area!
Please come to fabulous Seattle! Although you may want to wait until springtime…
Sarasota or Tampa, FL.
I am in Central New Jersey, so I vote for either NYC or Philly. Or both!
I’m with Lesley – NY, PHL, or both!
Ooh, ooh! Houston! Pretty-pretty please?
I’d settle for Austin in a pinch, but you should definitely come and check out Houston’s famous hospitality and our warm winter weather. :)
Seattle! I’d even drive down to Portland for a weekend event. (Though, as Lucky said above, you might want to wait until spring…)
You should so come to St. Louis.
Washington, DC!
NYC, please!!
Portland! :)
Philly- Pretty please-
Philly!
Washington D.C. or Baltimore!
Minneapolis/St Paul! But I’d fit in a visit to another midwestern city if you did…
Count me in on the Minneapolis/St. Paul side of things!! Minnesota might be cold and snowy here in the winter, but it’s a pretty place to be!! And you can’t tell me that there aren’t a plethora of Fabulous Big Girls around here!
Washington, DC!
Another vote for NYC!
Denver. Come on! It’s a hub!
Washington DC!
San Francisco!
I put in a fifth for washington and reemphasize how superfantastic it would be for the big girls to make a grand entrance at the french embassy christmas ball. Or someone else’s ball. Someone is always throwing a party on embassy row, and it makes a sufficient additional excuse for us to get pretty.
Seattle, baby! I will even make you shiny things!
Another vote for Washington, DC!
I’d settle for NYC or Philly, if you really can’t make it to NJ. How You Doin’?
Washington DC
Please come to Boston for the wintertime… (sing with me!)
Chicago, for sure!!
Vancouver, BC, please! It’s fairly warm here but you’ll need to bring your wellies!
Chicago! We need that dose of big girl style in the Big Windy!
Chicago!!!
LA! There’s so much good plus sized shopping here and the weather’s pretty darn good too!
Am I the only Memphis reader?? Memphis! Elvis! BBQ! Beale St!
If not that, then Milwaukee or someplace close, like Chicago. (My boyfriend is in MKE and I am there a lot.)
It’s beautiful in Phoenix this time of year!
I’m another vote for our nation’s capital! Bring some fabulousness to Washington DC!
I already voted for Austin. Does this count as two? Ha!
DC or Baltimore…yay!
If we’re playing the song game…”In your mind you’re goin to Carolinaaaa”! Am I the only shoe loving fashionista in the South???? Ladies please write in and be heard!!!
Portland, please!
Denver!
New York!
Charleston, SC. You’ll love it there. You’ll want to stay. Everyone does.
Greenville, South Carolina, please (yah, not likely but we have a great Talbot’s Womans Petites!!)
Hi, Phyllis (waving madly!). Charleston, SC would work for me, too!
