M4F Moto clothing for curvy women

Asking for a friend.
Any recommendations for jacket and pants that fit curvy women?
So far, I've found that Olympia has Plus sizes ( i will refrain from commenting on how much I hate the ideals projected on women and their shape ), and Firstgear seem to be cut wider.

Thanks,

Gotta ask....what kind of curves? They are all curvy, for the most part. Height, weight, and the three measurements would be helpful.

I think Gear Chic still helps women select gear http://www.gearchic.com/

She was a BARFer when she lived in the Bay Area, and used to work at Scuderia West. She went to work for Revzilla a few years ago. Don't know if she's still there.

If there's another Aerostich Pop-Up event here that might be a good place to try gear. Roadcrafters fit just about everyone, off the shelf or custom.

I have someone in mind, but do not have measurements yet.
It was more of a generic question; I have the opposite problem, where i need tall versions of gear - Dainese has Tall in some of their versions and they fit me very well, but i have not found much that caters to women with a high ratio in waist to hip or breast measurements.

I just bought my wife a Klim Artemis jacket and Altitude pants after ordering A-Stars Stella Andes pants/jacket online and returning them because they won't fit. Klim gear is $$$ but it fits her and it's solid kit.

I'm 5'1", and I'm pretty sure that anyone who's ever met me in real life would say that I fit the euphemistic description of "curvy." Usually a jacket that fits over my boobs means the sleeves will be too long for my short arms. Not so with RevIt gear. They get it, and their gear fits me really well. They offer a "short" option for their pants, too, which fit my 26" inseam great. I'm a fan of Klim dirt gear, and I love the looks (and name!) of their Artemis line, but could not get any size jacket to fit me comfortably, and at their price point no way was I going to spend more money to get it tailored to fit properly. Good luck in your search!

I believe Joanne (gearchic) You still at RevZilla and last I understood her job was to manage women's motorcycle fashions for RevZilla. So she is clearly the expert in the field. And she's a little on the curvy side too. And she's an awesome person having met her a few times.

Second the Revit and the GearChic recommendations. Joanne is a national treasure and can make the most appropriate recommendations for most, if not all brands.

I just checked Rev'it; their website and revzilla, and didn't find any plus sizes listed - now i wonder if they stopped making different sizes.

I bought men's gear! Koi's GF tried on some gear I gave her and commented how comfortable it was in the boobular area.

I am so fluffy that the women's plus is not in my size, cuz fat fuck. :laughing I used and enjoyed men's Rev'it stuff in extended sizes for years. I forgot to add that Hit AIR pants (forgot their exact brand) also KICK booty. They crash well, way comfy, too.
