TCFStyle Expo Plus Size Fashion & Excitement for 2017
The CDC estimates that 67% of American women are plus-size — wearing a size 14 and up. And yet, these 100 million plus-size women in the US account for only 1% - 2% of the bodies represented in fashion advertising and mainstream media. The Curvy Fashionista and her TCFStyle Expo wants to change that.
TCFStyle Expo is a revolutionary plus size fashion conference and expo that will be in Atlanta July 28-29, sponsored by major brands like Ashley Stewart, Lane Bryant, Chevrolet and others. Fashion industry leaders will speak and lead workshops about how they want to BE the change they want to see in the industry for the women of all ages and sizes in attendance as they learn, shop, transform and embrace fashion.

Hey Gorgeous Inclusive Size Clothing
While the greater fashion industry has made strides to better represent and design for the over 20-billion-dollar plus-size market in the last few years, there still remains an overwhelming lack of attention (or ignorance) to what this customer not only wants, but needs. She certainly has more destinations to shop for stylish, trend-forward clothing, but seemingly has trouble assembling a well-rounded, all-occasions wardrobe. This unsung reality has proven to be a major sticky point for Hey Gorgeous! founder and proprietress, Aimee Cheshire, even as she surveys the plethora of extended sizing brands she on boards for her own site.
From inception, Hey Gorgeous! has heralded high touch and quality, inclusively-sized clothing from numerous brands including mainstream labels like Rachel Pally and BB Dakota, as well as up-and-coming indie designers like PLY and Shegul. The handpicked selection of day-to-night dresses, blouses+bottoms, accessories, and outerwear showcases tremendous versatility and cream-of-the-crop selection, but loyalist Hey Gorgeous! shoppers are eager for more casual choices to suit work and play settings simultaneously. With her customers’ musings top of mind, as well as her personal frustrations with the available options in the market, Cheshire chose tees to launch the company’s original clothing line.
“We are in a unique and leverageable position at Hey Gorgeous! We have worked with so many amazing, full-spectrum-sized brands that bring elevated fashion and fresh perspectives to the curvier community, but NONE make a classic tee,” said Aimee. “We are asking our customers to discover their individual style, to play with style possibilities, but the process becomes so much harder when they realize that a valuable staple of their wardrobe is missing.”
In the mainstream fashion world, it is easy to take such a simple piece of fashion for granted, with there so many options, cuts and colors to choose from. Though, for women sizes 10 and up, the shirts are usually over-designed: embroidered, sequined, or printed to the point of distraction, likening them to novelty fast fashion clothing to be worn once before dismissing. The pioneering suite of essential tees from Hey Gorgeous!, however, will transcend what is typical for plus-size offerings in the category and give customers a true foundational basic tee that they will reach for day after day, for seasons to come.
The suite of essential tees will be available for purchase starting on June 16th, exclusively at HeyGorgeous.com The Essential collection boasts v-necks and crewnecks in long and short sleeves and a simple range of colourways, including black, white and a “color of the season,” starting with a Champagne Pink. All styles feature flexible side splits that allow for easy tucking and create room for fuller hips. A slight a-line shape lets the tee drape over the figure without looking too fitted or oversized. The tees are made of a super-luxe rayon spandex blend allowing them to be silky soft yet breathable with the perfect amount of stretch and recovery and do not shrink, pill or require special laundering.Tee length is the perfect length to go below the hips, but above the upper thigh, for maximum flattery and versatility, making it easy to wear tucked in or left out. Most importantly, the fit is specialized for curvier figures and were designed on size 14 and 18 fit models. Easily layered, #TheEssentialTee is designed in sizes most American women wear to serve as the building blocks for their wardrobe.

Curvy Girl Lingerie Debuted TV Show Reel
“Everyone deserves to have all the pleasure their bodies are capable of,” said Chrystal. “Enjoy your body right now! Don’t put your life on hold waiting until you lose another 50 pounds. Go out, have fun, enjoy it!”
The show opens on a birthday celebration introducing the colorful cast of characters and weaves through their lives throughout the season, culminating in the annual Curvy Girl Lingerie Fashion Show. Episodes include a Curvy Girl pole dance class, game nights, boudoir photo shoots, dinner parties with Fat Activists and more.
There is no place in Plus Life for depressed characters who hate their bodies or their lives, are dieting, cleansing or try to squeeze themselves into Spanx. Rather, Plus Life is an unapologetic salute to people of size who are body confident and happy in their own skin. But that doesn’t mean there isn’t drama! In addition to showcasing plus-sized women in a positive light, Plus Life shows the negative affects of the haters that the cast of characters encounter daily.
“For whatever reason, some people really hate fat people,” explained Chrystal. “And the minute you're trying to be fat and happy? Oh, that makes them really mad. But I'm never going to stop helping women to feel sexy and beautiful. Why would I? Because someone else doesn't like it? They can kiss my fat ass. Contrary to popular belief, there is no skinny girl inside me dying to get out. This is me. This is all I got. Living for today, not for some version of me that does not exist.”
