Plus-size fashion models challenge beauty norms by embracing diverse body sizes and shapes. They redefine standards by promoting the idea that beauty exists beyond conventional ideals. These models advocate for inclusivity in the fashion industry by showcasing a variety of body types and encouraging a shift towards accepting and celebrating individual uniqueness.

The fact that you have decided to become a fashion model despite your body weight is a way you are challenging the beauty norms of the fashion industry.

Overrated things we might stop caring about since 2025 (post 3) 3. Keeping up with the Sharmas Today we have got internet under our fingertips. This helps us to find our lost bosom friends from childhood. But, on another hand, we know everything about a person we wouldn't have known in real life and that was also not needed आज इंटरनेट हमारी उंगलियों के नीचे है। यह हमें बचपन के अपने खोए हुए घनिष्ठ मित्र मिल जाते हैं। लेकिन, दूसरी ओर, हम उस व्यक्ति के बारे में सब कुछ जानते हैं जिसे हम वास्तविक जीवन में नहीं जानते होंगे और इसकी आवश्यकता भी नहीं थी These days when we open our social media accounts to see everyone's life update. And these updates are usually the good ones, about their achievements and how many years of anniversary they are celebrating of their relationship. But, the truth is nobody is having a lovey-dovey life. They do have their fair share of lemons. But, that is not something that gets updated on social media. आजकल हम सोशल मीडिया अकाउंट खोलते हैं हर किसी की लाइफ अपडेट देखने के लिए। और ये अपडेट आमतौर पर अच्छे होते हैं, उनकी उपलब्धियों के बारे में और वे अपने रिश्ते की कितनी सालगिरह मना रहे हैं। लेकिन, सच तो यह है कि किसी की भी जिंदगी प्यारी-प्यारी नहीं है। उनके पास नींबू का उचित हिस्सा है। लेकिन, यह ऐसी चीज़ नहीं है जो सोशल मीडिया पर अपडेट हो जाती है। And this makes us feel bad and mad to self. और यह हमें स्वयं के प्रति बुरा और क्रोधित महसूस कराता है। Not using any social media at all might not be a sound option for a lot us but, we can take few measures. किसी भी सोशल मीडिया का उपयोग न करना हमारे लिए एक अच्छा विकल्प नहीं हो सकता है, लेकिन हम कुछ उपाय कर सकते हैं। So, how are you planing to stop comparing yourself by looking Sharma Ji's beti's facebook and instagram profile? 😉 तो, आप शर्मा जी की बेटी की फेसबुक और इंस्टाग्राम प्रोफ़ाइल देखकर अपनी तुलना करना कैसे बंद करने की योजना बना रहे हैं? 😉 #NewYear2025 #NewBeginning #freshstart

Okay, this might sound crazy, but I find myself way more attracted to characters in books and movies or even celebrities than real people I meet. Is that normal? What does that even mean?
Hi, There is nothing wrong about it.
Hey! Hope you are well. Yes it’s completely normal. Generally we are attracted to the idea of celebrities and characters in books being “perfect”. And since this perfection does not exist in real life, we automatically aren’t attracted enough to real people. Let me know if you want to discuss this further, we can certainly connect! -Sampada, Psychotherapist and Intimacy coach

Heya everyone This is my first time using the app.Kindly ignore any mistakes. I am kind of chubby or you can say overweight 24 years old girl.Initially I didn't have any insecurities.But since a year or two when I moved to Delhi.I constantly try to fit in among people.But it feels like I'm losing a part of me.🥲
hey Anonymous. one needs to be physically fit, not to please anyone but for urself. Being overweight should not be the reason for your insecurities . You need to accept yourself first only then others will accept you if you feel you are loosing urself trying to fit in... ask yourself what is it that you are doing that's creating discomfort within you ... identify and work on it.. good luck 👍
Hello Thank you for sharing and you don't have to be sorry for anything. This is a safe and non- judgemtal space for you. I can understand moving to a new city comes with lot of adjustment issues and it's hard.

Body positivity is an empowering movement advocating for the acceptance of all bodies, regardless of societal or media ideals. This concept is particularly important for women, who often face intense pressure to conform to specific beauty standards. Women's body positivity is about embracing and celebrating the diversity of female bodies in all their different sizes, shapes, colors, and ages. It is about recognizing that all bodies are beautiful and worthy, and rejecting the idea that a woman's value is tied to her appearance. This movement aims to help women cultivate a positive relationship with their bodies, encouraging self-love, self-acceptance, and self-care. It promotes the idea that everyone deserves to feel comfortable and confident in their own skin, and that respect and inclusivity should be the norm. Body positivity inspires women to focus on their capabilities, strengths, and character, rather than their appearance. It sends a powerful message that beauty is not a one-size-fits-all concept, and encourages society to redefine its perception of what it means to be beautiful. In essence, women's body positivity is a celebration of women in their most authentic form, advocating for self-love, acceptance, and a healthier perspective on the female body.more

KOTA DORIA community profile picture
👗 Fashion

Kota Doria, also known as Kota Dori or Kota Masuria, is a distinctive handwoven fabric that originates from Kota in Rajasthan, India. It's renowned for its fine texture, sheer quality, and delicate weave. The fabric is traditionally made using a blend of cotton and silk threads, resulting in a lightweight, translucent cloth that's highly breathable and comfortable, especially in hot climates. Kota Doria textiles are characterized by their distinctive square-check patterns, known as "khat" or "khej" in Hindi. These checks are a defining feature of the fabric and are created through a unique weaving technique. The history of Kota Doria dates back to the 17th century when it was patronized by the royal families of Rajasthan. Over time, it has gained popularity not only in India but also internationally, appreciated for its elegant appearance and versatility. Kota Doria fabric is often used to create sarees, dupattas (scarves), salwar suits, and other traditional Indian garments, showcasing its sheer beauty and timeless appeal.more
