Fashion positivity is about embracing and celebrating, self-love and confidence in what you wear. Fashion should be a way to express your unique style and personality, but due to body negativity caused by family, peer group, media or social pressure, it has affected so many lives and brands causing increase in mental condition rate and decrease in demands of certain outfits.
Victoria is a slim, tall lady who is always criticize about her body. Some said” her legs are long , she is so fragile” rumors said her genotype was SS and that’s what makes her that way. Victoria suffered from emotional and mental damage Including eating disorder, getting her to the other side(plus-sized). Little did she know that she was still going to be critized “why is she so fat” I bet she stinks” with that body she should definitely hit the gym. At that point her thoughts became suicidal, going through the internet for unknown reasons she stumbled upon a blog speaking on self-development and confidence. She was able to come to a decision that she wouldn’t care about what people say, and think positively. She became a plus-sized model and earned confidence.
It is inspiring to see some brands using their platform to promote fashion positivity and self-acceptance in the fashion industry. An example is Aerie brand, they are known for their unretouched photos and inclusive representation of all body types in their lingerie campaigns.
A fashion advice I would share is embrace your unique style and what makes you comfortable. Fashion is creating your own style so don’t worry about following trends or pleasing others.
Be your trend!!.
