ideas and designs, and went relatively smoothly for us back of stage! We were at capacity of 400 for the runway show on the Saturday night and the Market hit over 500 guests over 4 hours so that was amazing too. There were new people attending, people who’d only heard about last years show too late, or were new to body acceptance itself, who came along and found a new community. There were new designers with us, there were first time models joining some of the ladies from last year. We had a great representation in the traditional media circles, which we didn’t have last year, who really promoted the idea that we were proud of our bodies and our work, instead of trying to sneak in a terrible pun headline or treating us like sideshow exhibits. We definitely felt the love this year!
It seemed like an amazing turn out...where there any red carpet surprises? Having Tess Holliday as our special guest was amazing! It really brought an international eye to our show, to give us some firsthand feedback on how we compare to the well lauded US market in terms of variety and showmanship, as well as bringing supporters from all over the world to check out the designers involved. It broadened the horizons of our event, for sure.
event, but plans are always in the works! We’re hoping to bring smaller but just as amazing events to Melbourne and other cities Australia-wide in the near future, before starting the 9 month project work that it takes to put on the Curvy Couture weekend!
It was amazing seeing this journey with you! Skorch loves Australia and the Roadshow! And we love you! Thank you for interviewing us!
What can we expect to see in the future for the Curvy Couture Roadshow? Curvy Couture Inc. is definitely committed to creating exciting events to promote inclusivity and diversity in fashion. We are taking a well-deserved rest from the excitement and exertions of the March
