Plus Size Style Advice with Katie Winnen

Jennifer Mackey Mary
About this episode

"Style is for everybody and every body" is one of the core values here at Everyday Style. However, we know that, in a society that often dictates beauty standards based on size and shape, we can all feel left out of the conversation at times.

In this conversation with stylist Katie Winnin, we talked about the challenges faced by plus size women in the fashion industry. Katie shared how her personal journey as a plus size woman influenced her career as a stylist dedicated to empowering the plus size community.

Katie highlighted the common mistakes plus size women can make when it comes to style, and emphasized the need to explore personal style rather than blindly following trends. She also addressed the misconception that cute clothes are not available for plus size women, challenging the idea that certain body sizes are not deserving of fashionable clothing.

We delved into the reasons why plus size women may hesitate to invest in their personal style, including waiting to achieve a certain body size. Katie emphasized the importance of self-acceptance and breaking free from societal norms that dictate what is considered fashionable for different body sizes.

Even if you aren't plus size, this conversation is a reminder that style is not limited by size or shape, and everyone deserves to feel confident and beautiful in the clothes they wear.

In This Episode:

  • Katie's personal journey in the fashion industry
  • The challenges plus size women can face in finding clothing that fits well and represents their own style due to limited options in stores.
  • The importance of representation in the fashion industry.
  • Common style mistakes that plus size women can make, including mirroring someone else's style too closely and only dressing for trends.
