In the 90s and early 2000s, the world of fashion and pop culture was dominated by super-skinny models and celebrities. We idolized the thigh gaps and flat tummies, believing that was the ideal to which we should aspire. Fast forward to today, and it seemed like we had shifted our gaze to admire the voluptuous curves of Kardashian-style bodies. But hold onto your heels, because the times are changing again.

1. Katie Sutrino recreated a casual Hailey Beiber look in bright pink and said that initially she hated this look and it didn’t look like something she would ever wear, which was kind of the point, to expand her horizons. But after styling it for herself and snapping the photo she decided that she quite liked it and would wear it again.
2. Katie also recreated Kaia Gerber’s look and said that it was the perfect look for fall because it combines good ventilation at the top and the plaid bottoms are very cute for autumn.
3. Gabriella Athena Halikas recreated a grocery store look by Julia Fox. Gabriella said that while this was the most scandalous outfit she’d ever worn to a grocery store she felt liberated. She says that she’s tired of this idea that only skinny girls are allowed to wear more revealing outfits and as soon as a curvy woman does it’s immediately deemed to be «too revealing» or «inappropriate». It even goes back to her middle and high school years when she used to wear the same outfit as her skinnier friends, but only she would get dress coded because her pencil skirt just “wasn’t appropriate” (since she was just thicker) – and her tank top was “too revealing” just cause she had bigger boobs.
