NYFW Has A Size Inclusivity Problem. Berriez Founder Emma Zack Decided To Change That.

Happy Sammieween! Not to make it about me but October is here and I turn 30 on Halloween so… it actually is about me. We’ll dive into spooky season as the holiday approaches but for now, a brief fashion month recap:

Berriez stood out among what The Zoe Report dubbed the “body diversity backslide” that was NYFW. IYKYK, that isn’t anything out of the ordinary for the vintage and reworked, collaborative design shop “curated for curves.” Fat b*tches winning! Founder Emma Zack in her own words…

"If you're so scared of putting clothes on a fat model, why don't you invite them to your studio and do fittings on them and see how the clothes lay? I just want the same clothes. So if you just maybe have some respect and consideration for people above size 12, and maybe talk to them. There's this whole white supremacy, thin privilege. All of that wrapped into who's getting hired to walk these runways. Let's dismantle all of that. Stop making excuses and just do it."
