5 Latin American-owned plus-size fashion brands ♥️
Shopping when you’re a fat person is not easy, let me tell you. Ask anyone who’s slightly larger than a size Large, and the answer will be pretty much the same: I can never find clothes that fit me properly and look nice at the same time. Fat folks have been excluded from the shopping and fashion experience for a long time now, and even though we do have some plus-size options available in the market, they’re mostly US and UK-centric and not readily available everywhere.
Two years later, her love of blogs started. She started following fashion blogs, taking inspiration from them, and applying that to her everyday wardrobe. It wasn’t long before she started getting comments that alluded to her amazing style: “You don’t dress like a fat person! You look great!”. She soon realized that what they meant was she dressed normally instead of dressing in all-black in an attempt to hide her body .
Eventually being a fat fashion blogger was not enough to create the kind of change Laura wanted in the Colombian fashion industry. After a particularly rough period in her life, she came up with the idea of creating the first-ever plus-size exclusive pop-up shop, GORDA Salón de Moda Plus Size, comprised entirely of locally made Colombian fashion brands.
She’s not wrong; the fashion industry as a whole is tremendously fatphobic, even with size inclusion and fat activism being such hot topics. As a fat woman, I’m used to getting dirty or funny looks from sales associates pretty much everywhere I shop—even if I’m not shopping for myself. I’m made to feel like I don’t belong there.
