by Stephen Garner

Leading big and tall men’s fashion brand MVP Collections announced a new player in the game. Baseball legend, and two-time MVP and MLB Hall of Famer, Frank Thomas, known as “The Big Hurt,” is an official partner in the business, alongside co-founders and managing partners, Mo Vaughn and Diane Cutuli Bennett.

Since the launch of MVP Collections in August 2016, the brand has found success within the men’s fashion industry, expanding its product offerings, sizing and styles. In tandem with the announcement, the brand will also launch a collection inspired by Thomas’ favorite styles.

The collection inspired by Thomas will include four capsules each one with a distinctive style and vision – “El Dorado” (which includes gold detailing and embroideries), “Seductive Nights” (jewel-colored python animal prints and velveteen vintage washed denim), “La Barocco” (inspired by Baroque prints and majestic themes), and “Neon Lights” (sports leisurewear in techno satin fabrics with neon stripes). With products made in the USA, the collections feature a full range of stylish athleisure, premium denim, tees, polos, jackets, and dress shirts, in an array of luxe fabrics, prints, textures, and colors. The collection offers sizing from 2XL to 6XL, XLT-4XLT, and sizing from 40-58, offered in 32”, 34” and 36” inseams.

“The journey from being friends to becoming business partners with Mo has been a tremendous experience, and I’m honored to be a partner and MVP,” sid Thomas. “Like Mo, I’m a big guy who’s always looking for stylish clothing options, so it’s been exciting to see my collections with MVP come to life. I love a great polo and jeans, but then I also love to wear trendy prints and bright colors, and these collections bring a little of everything from my personal style into them.”

“We are so excited to welcome Frank into the MVP family, as he truly is our guy and inspires us with his personal style,” added Vaughn. “We have spent the last three years building MVP Collections, and have seen a huge demand for fashionable and trendy items within the big and tall market. We want to be the premier destination for stylish big and tall clothing, and remind our customer that style has no size.”
