Introducing Fluff Couture

As a plus-size woman, I am beyond excited about the new curvy brands that are not afraid to create sexy, body contouring pieces. Fluff Couture is one of those collections that has classy dresses for full-figured women that hug and compliment our natural lines.

Snapped: FFFW

If you got to attend Full Figured Fashion Week, I am so jealous! The 7th Annual Full Figured Fashion Week (FFFWeek®) recently wrapped up and it was a showcase of the latest in plus size fashion. It took place from June 14th through June 20th in NYC. The festivities included a Hawaiian luau, Curves at Sea White Cruise, featuring an Ashley Stewart runway show, musical performances by Queen of Gospel Energy Dawn Tallman, Impact Magazine's "Cocktails and Conversations with Gwen DeVoe", and the Celebrate My Size Expo, presented by FFFWeek® and PLUS.

We know that the red carpet can be a hit or miss for celebs, but this especially seems to be the case for plus-size actresses. More often than not, stylists and designers seem to be setting them up for the Okie Doke, pushing them down the carpet in VERY ill-fitting pieces than leaves everyone, from fashion critiques to viewers at home, scratching their heads, wondering what possess them to make such a HUGE fashion mistake!

This was not the case for the ladies above. No, these curvy divas worked the carpet like it was going out of style! Let's hope that this great year for plus-size women on the carpet sets the tone for years to come!
