I think an important part of the body positive journey is wearing clothes that make you feel fabulous – at least, it has been a very important part of my journey.

It is a style that I feel fantastic in, and thankfully there are a number of companies out there at the moment that are providing retro reproductions (designs inspired by true vintage but in modern fabrics and colours) in plus sizes.
