How can fashion adapt to different
body types?
Size-inclusive designs: Fashion brands can offer
a wide range of sizes to cater to different body
types. This includes extending size ranges to
include plus sizes and designing garments that
flatter various body shapes.
Diverse representation: The industry needs
to embrace diversity in advertising and
marketing campaigns. Showcasing models
with different body types helps consumers
see themselves represented in fashion and
promotes body positivity.
Adaptive clothing: Fashion can adapt to different
physical abilities and needs. Designing clothing
that considers mobility, ease of dressing, and
functionality for individuals with disabilities or
specific conditions can enhance inclusivity.
Education and awareness: Educating designers,
stylists and industry professionals about the
importance of catering to different body types
can lead to more inclusive and diverse
fashion offerings.

Be consistent. Establishing a skincare routine
tailored to your skin type and concerns is
crucial. This typically involves cleansing, toning,
moisturizing and applying sunscreen daily.
Additionally, incorporating treatments like
exfoliation and masks can help rejuvenate
the skin. A balanced diet, regular exercise
and sufficient sleep also contribute to healthylooking
skin.
What is the milestone you’re working
towards right now in your personal and
professional life?
When it comes to fashion, my personal and
professional goals are almost invariably intertwined.
First off, I am constantly working
towards expanding my industry knowledge by
staying updated with the latest fashion trends,
designers and industry news, which is crucial
for me as a fashionista. I believe reading fashion
magazines and blogs, and actively engaging with
the fashion community, help to broaden
my knowledge and perspective. I also always
believe in broadening my network, as it plays
a significant role in the fashion industry.
Connecting with like-minded individuals and
organizations like FAWCO, attending industry
events and building relationships with
professionals can open doors for collaborations,
opportunities and mentorship.

Collaboration with influencers and consumers:
Engaging with influencers and consumers who
represent a range of body types can provide
valuable insights and feedback, leading to more
inclusive designs.
If someone gave you $500, what would you do
with it?
Invest in a statement piece: I would search for a
high-quality, versatile fashion item to elevate my
wardrobe. It could be a designer handbag, a pair
of classic shoes or a timeless coat. Either that or
I would upgrade my wardrobe staples by
buying well-fitted jeans, versatile tops or a
tailored blazer.
What's your favorite beauty tip?
