There’s no denying that September New York Fashion Week is my favorite. Not only because fall in NYC is so much nicer than blizzardy February, and not just because it’s fun to look forward to the bright & bold spring styles that grace the runway, but because NYFW becomes inundated with fatshionistas, thanks to Curvy Con. 

Three years ago when Curvy Con moved their dates to align with NYFW I was thrilled; after years of paltry showings of plus sizes on the runway and in the seats, there were more curvy fashionistas taking up space every September. 

While running between fashion shows and Curvy Con panels I stopped to snap every stylish babe I could spot. Keep scrolling to see some of our favorites and tell us in the comments which look is your favorite!
