From the moment I landed in Milan, the Italian breeze welcomed me as I rolled down my window on the way to my hotel. Instantly, I noticed the air of authenticity and self-expression that permeates the streets through style. I wondered if my heightened senses were due to my excitement for the upcoming fashion event, or if it was the inherent refined edge and sophistication of Italian fashion that we all admire.
As a curve model, actress, and fashion editor, I have the opportunity to travel the globe, attending some of the most amazing events hosted by fashion brands. For a woman whose ethos is expressed through what she wears, feeling inspired by the people and surroundings around you fosters a deeper sense of self and style. Being inspired to reinvent and embrace yourself through fashion daily shouldn’t come with limitations. Yet, even in 2024, being a curve woman still involves navigating a landscape that often lacks inclusivity.
