Ever since this writer shifted, rather quickly, to two sizes larger than what she had been wearing all her life, finding her style and the right fit has become difficult. As body inclusivity movements gained attention, it became clear that the issue was not with an unfamiliar body or the clothes that did not feel right for it, but with the accepted norm of what kind of body can wear which style. Another problem was the understanding of how to style for a size that was different from the ones a fashion label would usually don their clothes on. The world needs stylists and fashion enthusiasts who are vocal about body inclusivity in terms of size, shape and gender to lend us help on how we can confidently rock any look we wish to. As unattainable fashion and beauty standards are being pushed back and many are vocal about love and respect for every size and shape, we’re using clothes to make a statement — the choice has to be with the wearer. Today being World Bikini Day, stylist and content creator, Christina Lobo takes us through various types of bikinis and swimwear outfits to help you find your own style and size.
