Marie Denee is a digital marketing strategist, media aficionado, and plus size fashion pioneer. Known as the “walking wiki of plus-size fashion,” Marie has spent over two decades empowering women to celebrate their curves while reshaping the paradigm of fashion norms.
In 2008, she launched The Curvy Fashionista, a leading plus-size digital media platform, in response to systemic issues within plus-size fashion, including poor merchandising, back-of-store placement, and a lack of size-inclusive design expertise. As Editor-in-Chief, Marie and her team curate plus size wardrobe and style options from top fashion brands, deliver inclusive news content, and host community-centered events virtually and in person.
Sigh… I see all sorts of beautiful things on the runways and then when it comes to plus-sized offerings, all we get are black and white basics. How many black skirts and pants does one woman need? Why does every designer peg us into this category and deny us the feminine pastels, the beautiful gauzy prints, or even some edgy steel gray and silver? These are soooo hard to find and when I do see them, I’m paying full price because they sell out too quickly!
