25.01.2022 Garden Party Is being released this Thursday night at 7pm (SA time) I fell in love with this print from @brookgossen as soon as I saw it, and knew it would look ah-mazing on a frock. Im beyond happy with how it turned out- I freaking love it!! What do you think?
25.01.2022 Once a week, I attend a sewing group. Its an amazingly nurturing community of women. . The group is mainly made up of women older than me, all of whom have big families including lots of grandchildren who they often talk so proudly about. . Sometimes, not a lot of sewing gets done because theres too much to talk about. But we are always working at our own pace, making something for ourselves or discussing what we will be making next for ourselves.... . Its always at this point, that the body hatred starts being verbalised. It is such a heartbreaking conversation to witness. These amazing women who have lived such full lives and have been blessed by their bodies ability to birth beautiful children, travel, create memories, forge careers and rule as the matriarchs in their family. Yet the focus is on how much they hate their body and physical appearance. . I know as women, we get conditioned to think and feel like this. But I also know that I dont want to look back at my life with regret because I was worried about the opinion of others. . Its a mammoth task to de program yourself from this way of thinking. But for the sake of my own well being and in turn for my daughters well being, Im absolutely doing my best to cancel this destructive and toxic way of thinking and being. See more

24.01.2022 Hands down, The Wizard of Oz is in my top 5 of all-time favourite movies. . . I am adamant that as a very little girl, this is where the seeds of feminism were planted for me. I mean, its no cowinkydink that the only people in this film that hold any real power are all female and that all the men in the film are lacking in some area. .... . The Wizard with no power, The Tin Man with no heart, The Lion without courage and The Scarecrow with no brain. . . So naturally, I need to pay homage to this masterpiece and so this Thursday is the release of the Wizard of Oz blue gingham frock, 7pm SA time. . . And remember my sentimental friend, a heart is not judged by how much you love, but by how much you are loved by others The Wizard See more

21.01.2022 Societys rules for plus size women: .Dont wear bright colours .Dont wear big prints .Dont wear tight clothing... .Dont show off your body .Dont bring attention to yourself .Wear dark colours .Wear more flattering things .Wear more slimming things .Wear oversized clothes .Know that youre less fuckable .Know that youll be made fun of .Know that you dont deserve nice clothes .Shrink yourself .Apologise for your body .Be ashamed of your body .Hate your body .Always aim to lose weight .Always be on a diet .Always know that you will be of less worth .Be jolly .Smile I can not stress this enough and I can not be anymore clearer: Fuck every single thing on this list And furthermore: Fuck off to all attitudes, brands and businesses who perpetuate this bullshit towards us.
20.01.2022 Something New! . A few new things are being released this coming Thursday. . Let’s start with this new print from @gabriella.domin.design called ‘Morning Walk.’ This total dream of jewel coloured goodness will be available in a frock but also in Curvature’s first top! ... . It’s taken a while to release this and all your input was paramount in making something you wanted. . There were at least 7 toiles made and lots of ripping up of draft patterns and starting again. In the end, It made sense to use the same bodice as the frocks for this top. That way there was familiarity with the size and fit. . As always, the sleeves are customisable with the added option of a frill . There’s much more detail in today’s stories about front frill lengths and measurements which I’ll save in my highlights under ‘tops.’ . These tops are also available in the pink and red stripe and will be available this coming Thursday at 7pm (SA time) See more

18.01.2022 Better days are coming . Its hard to not focus on the shit show that this year has been. I usually gravitate towards the negative side of things taking a more pessimistic approach . But, Im really making an effort to focus on the positive. It wont be shit forever, I feel it, I know it. Better days are definitely ahead.
18.01.2022 Have you noticed all the rhetoric getting around at the moment about Covid kilos? .

You know what the biggest achievement is during a global pandemic? Staying alive. . Thats right. StayingTheFuckAlive . These are extremely hard times; not only emotionally and financially, but lets be real, its also a matter of life and death for all of us. . So please be kind to yourself.

13.01.2022 New dress, who dis? Could not be happier with the process around my new dress from Curvature! Lisa is wonderful. Sent me a toile so that I could work out my sizing and any needed customisations to make sure I was going to be happy in my dress (and any future purchases!). I love the fabrics she works with and love that I now have a beautiful dress that fits how I want, in bright cute colours! @naterin . . . Its been a month since the Sizing Kits became available. At first,... I wasnt really sure how it would go, and whether you folks would like the idea. All I knew was the fact, that it is an absolute pain in the arse shopping online as a plus size woman and that I wanted to try and make it easier anyway I could. . . Its an understatement to say, but the response has been completely overwhelming! I wanted to share with you Nats (aka @naterin ) experience who also DMd to say that on the day she first wore her In Bloom frock... lots of compliments today. And I felt so confident! . . And this my friends, is what its all about!! See more

10.01.2022 Pink Gingham Release Thursday night 7pm (SA time) . How come so much plus size fashion is floral? Dont get me wrong, Im a lover of floral prints. . To. A. Point. ... . Im not a fan of the assumption that plus size women only want floral and/or dark coloured prints though. . And why is there not more plus size options of reimagined classic prints like gingham, stripes, or even houndstooth for example? Oh thats right, because theyre not slimming enough **eyes rolling as back as far as humanly possible** . Could. Not. Be. More. Frustrating. . . . . . . #curvatureclothing #newreleases #gingham #ginghamdress #pinkgingham #ihavethisthingwithpink #ihavethisthingwithcolor #dopaminedressing #plussizefashion #plussize #makemysize #plussizeboutique #plussizeoutfit #plussizestore #plussizeclothing #curvyau #curvystyle #curvyconfidence #curvyrevolution #curvynstyle #psootd #size14 #size16style #size18 #size20 #size22 #size24 #size26 #size28 See more

03.01.2022 It happens here and its been happening here for a very, very long time: Police brutality towards Aboriginal people and other people of colour. The ongoing systemic failures of governments and policy makers has not made us the lucky country we may think this is. Educate yourself, ask questions, find out the truth. Its our responsibility to do this. To be an ally. Because the most important thing is that black lives matter. . #blackouttuesday #wakeupwhiteaustralia ... #alwayswasalwayswillbe See more
