Body Positivity

Let’s talk about body-positivity.

With the body positivity movement gaining momentum, there is a growing need for more body-positive fashion content, and I believe that fashion should be for EVERY BODY, regardless of their size or shape.

So, I'd like to share outfit ideas and styling tips for a range of body types, as well as spotlighting brands that cater to a diverse range of sizes.

Firstly, let's talk about the importance of body-positive fashion. Body positivity is all about accepting and loving your body, no matter what size or shape it is. And fashion is a powerful tool that can help us express our unique style and feel good about ourselves. However, for too long, the fashion industry has catered only to a narrow range of sizes, leaving many people feeling excluded and invisible. That's why it's so important to support brands that offer a diverse range of sizes and celebrate all bodies.

Now, for the styling tips and outfit ideas! First of all, it's important to know your body shape and what styles flatter it. I’m not saying we all need to choose the fruit which represents us, I’m just saying, identity your assets and understand how to highlight them. For example if you want to create more curves and shape, you might want to opt for tops that draw attention to your neckline and cinch in at the waist. If you want to take the focus away from your hips, you might want to focus on highlighting your waist and wearing A-line skirts or dresses that skim over your hips.

When it comes to specific outfit ideas, there are so many options for all body types. For a casual day out, try pairing a flowy blouse with high-waisted jeans and ankle boots. For a more formal occasion, a wrap dress can be very flattering on a variety of bodies. And don't be afraid to play with bold colors and prints - fashion is all about having fun and expressing yourself.

As for brands that cater to a diverse range of sizes, there are so many great options out there. Some of my favorites include Universal Standard, Commonry, Country Road, Good American, and Witchery. These brands offer a wide range of sizes, as well as stylish and on-trend clothing that flatters a variety of body types.

Body-positive fashion is all about celebrating and embracing all body types. By supporting brands that offer a diverse range of sizes and experimenting with different styles that flatter your body shape, you can feel confident and stylish no matter what size you are.

So go forth and rock that outfit with pride, Brisbane fashionistas.
