Imagine always feeling invisible, yet being hyper-visible to the rest of the world because of your body’s size. Confusingly contradictory, right? This often stressful situation is what many plus-size people, especially women and femmes, must navigate day in and day out.

Too much, yet also always never enough.

What if you could reclaim that space? For some, fashion is a tool that allows them to do this.

For many, bold prints, vivid colors, and daring silhouettes allow them to take control. For others, they feel confident and secure in sleek minimalist designs, presenting a clean slate for the rest of the world, keeping their secrets close to them. Whatever your style preference is, fashion can play a key role in taking control and showing the world how (or who) you choose to be perceived.

There is no one way to do it. Some adopt a “signature style” and stay on brand with it to simplify their lives and closets. Others enjoy playing with different styles and identities every day or, for those who are less mercurial, switch it up with the changing seasons. There is no wrong way to exist in your body, but some ways can be more fun than others.

You needn’t be covered from head to toe in prints to make a statement — but it certainly can be a badass look if you want to give it a try!

Speak volumes without even opening your mouth. Check out these 11 plus-size Instagrammers as they make a statement through print.
