Did Skinny Ever Really Go Out Of Fashion...

MAMAMIA PODCASTS
About this episode

Where have all the plus-sized models gone? We discuss the lack of non-straight-sized models used on runways this year. 

This week we’re joined by a special guest co-host, activist, and founder of ‘Ecclestone The Label',  Katie Parrott.

PLUS: AI-generated models; are they good for inclusivity or are they just another way brands have found to get out of using diverse bodies?

BOUJIE

Katie: Commonry Lemon Trench Coat

Laura: Curve Project Drew Blazer

BUDGET

Katie: Best And Less Women's Fleece Shacket

Laura: You And All Fashion
