IFWT_Lala_Anthony_Latina_Magazine

It’s not the first and surely, it won’t be the last. Lala Anthony covers the August 2014 issue of Latina Magazine looking like nothing but style and grace. The woman who wears many hats discusses her new fashion line, the perfect family night, and her readiness to have another child. Oh.

“If I did have another child, the reason would be that I wouldn’t want my son to be alone in the world as an only child. But we’ll see,” Lala said. Okay. Hit the jump for more.

On her perfect night with her family
My husband, my son and I have the best time when it’s just the three of us. It’s nice to all be together, put a movie on, lie in the bed and laugh. That’s my idea of a perfect, fun time.

On her new fashion line, 5th & Mercer
I know what works on Latinas, black women and curvy women. But it’s great that a website like ShopBop that isn’t used to having that kind of consumer—they’re used to stopping at a six or an eight—to push them to go up to a fourteen and understand our kind of woman.

On designing clothes that flatter Latinas
I always notice my quickest-selling sizes are the fourteens, the twelves and the tens. I just won a little disagreement to increase the sizes with the website ShopBop. They were only going from zero to eight and I’m like, ‘No, we come in all sizes, we have to increase the sizes.’ So now they go from zero to fourteen and I wish they would go even higher.
