The large woman shown here is not the type of women who face problems with dressing pretty. Usually when you gain weight, you get pot belly, arm fat e.t.c, and loses the curves. Im a short person who was slim. Now I've gained weight, and even though I'm not overweight, I don't look pretty in many of my previous dresses due to tummy, and apple shape

Can we stop rating these women, saying one looks better than the other in these pictures. The whole point of them doing this is to show that every body is beautiful, not that one looks better in a dress than the other.

Curvy lady looks better in nearly all the pictures

I’ve said this before, but I remember seeing some fashion magazines from the thirties and forties that my mother had saved (I’m 62, and she had me when she was 40). Every one of the would show clothing on a skinny model-sized woman AND both fuller and a plus-sized women too. It was to show you how the clothes looked on bodies with hips, breasts, and asses, instead of just on skinny models. I asked my mother about that, and she said it was common practice back then. Makes perfect sense. I am not skinny model sized. I can’t tell you how many times I have been disappointed in how certain clothes looked on me. I had no clue how they would look, because the only reference I had was of a skinny model wearing them. Why in earth the fashion industry would purposely alienate such a large portion of the population is beyond me. Why can’t they cater to us ALL instead? They would see their profits skyrocket, believe me, plus they wouldn’t have to suck up to rich anssholes all the time.

I think both of these girls are beautiful, I think everyone can be beautiful in their own ways, but I feel like a lot of these outfits were tailored more towards curvy women which is why the slimmer girl is getting all this backlash about how she looks in these outfits, not that either of them should be getting backlash for having fun ofc, just my guess because it's hard to find clothes that "look right" on all bodies, although I think you shoukd just wear whatever makes you happy 😁!

The two girls are gorgeous, but most of the dresses are horrible

Surely this should be "Style, not shape"? Because as long as you're healthy, which is to say not obese, starving yourself or putting stupid chemicals in your bodies/having suregery to look like some zelebrity, then so what?

I've never quite understood the whole size not style thing-and it's everywhere these days. It's not an either or sort of deal, it's in fact both. Not only does size matter-yes it does when we're talking clothes-but also the style you choose. Some styles just work better on different body types-which INCLUDES size! That's not to say heavier, or thinner body types can't wear nice, pretty, handsome, whatever, styles, it just means the style needs to fit your body type. Just because it's in your size (ANY size), doesn't mean it'll look good. Most of these that look good on the curvier woman would NOT look good on a woman with more body fat. If you've got that tummy, thigh, butt, pudge, those waist, thigh and butt hugging styles won't fit in your size and if you go up, you risk it being too big and looking like a parachute instead. Size AND style, not one or the other.

I don't get this. All shows to me is that some of the clothes look better on one of them than the other.

Size and shape are important
