Fashion Fest 2012: My Day as a Plussize Model

Fashion Fest 2012: My Day as a Plussize Model

Even though I have a plussize fashion blog and take a million pictures of myself, I’ve never considered myself a plussize model. But I was thrilled when a local fashion show producer asked if I was interested in participating in this year’s Mo Rockin’ Fashion Fest in Wicker Park! And…how awesome is it that they wanted plussize models in the fashion show to begin with??? When I found out that I would be walking in clothes from vive la femme…I was completely sold. 🙂 So…I made my debut on the catwalk!!

I appeared in the afternoon show representing vive la femme and wore the fantastic Kiyonna Whimsy Wrap Dress. I paired it with my own hot red heels, and an amazing red parasol from Elevensees. Even though it was a swelteringly hot day…it was a blast. I’m so glad I got to participate and spend the day as a model. 🙂

It was SO HOT…My hair had to be redone!
 
The gorgous Shannon…the other plussize model on the runway. 🙂

I had a blast!! It was great representing the curvy ladies on the catwalk! And the icing on the cake was that I got to do it in a Kiyonna dress on behalf of vive la femme. 🙂
