The first new release for 2025 is available to order now. Don't forget that orders are open for one week only. From February 20th to 27th. Made to order and available in sizes 6 to 30.
Curvature is a planet pleasing alternative to the fast fashion juggernauts hell bent on polluting the planet and underpaying workers. By using a made-to-order business model, it ensures low waste, thoughtful production, and a 30-business-day turnaround, because, unlike fast fashion, I actually take the time to do things properly (wild, I know).
Here’s the deal: Once a month, I open orders for just 7 days. After that, I only order the fabric needed (there’s no mountains of unsold stock here) then it’s printed, shipped, and ready for the real work to begin. Every piece is cut by hand (including your customisations), then sewn by local professional makers who actually get paid fairly (again, radical concept). Finally, it’s packed up and sent to its forever home.
Between releases, the website might look a little…bare. That’s just the nature of slow fashion, but every now and then, I manage a restock if there’s leftover fabric. Want to stay in the loop? Follow along on socials. I mostly hang out on Instagram and post daily stories, behind-the-scenes chaos, and random thoughts that have absolutely nothing to do with fashion. Or subscribe to emails for new release updates and the occasional “I’m feeling generous” discount code.
One striking example of how the male gaze continues to influence fashion is the recent trend toward beige and neutral-coloured clothing. While minimalist and neutral tones can be chic, the overwhelming popularity of these muted palettes raises questions about whether we are being encouraged to dull ourselves down, to blend in rather than stand out. In a society where women are often taught to take up less space—physically, verbally, and even sartorially—this trend mirrors a larger cultural push for women to tone down our presence. The emphasis on beige, a colour that quite literally fades into the background, subtly reinforces the idea that we should be palatable, inoffensive, and less visible. It stands in stark contrast to the bold colours and patterns that can celebrate individuality, strength, and personal expression.
Recently, Australian fashion brand Witchery faced backlash for its new direction, which included removing size 20 and promoting a controversial 'heroin chic/white supremist' aesthetic. Public outrage spanned TV, podcasts, social media, and newspapers, highlighting the power of collective voices in demanding inclusivity.
Personally, I found it incredible because I don’t remember a time when women have used their power to call out lack of size inclusion and diversity in such a public way. Viva la revolution.
The reluctance of many of us plus-size women to invest in our wardrobes often stems from deeper issues of self-worth and the pervasive influence of diet culture. Despite the current cost-of-living crisis, this mentality has persisted over the years. The constant comparison to unrealistic beauty standards leads to feelings of inadequacy, making fashion investments seem pointless and I have some thoughts about it.
My New Years resolutions were always based around my body and that my body needed to change. Drastically.
Five years ago, I was so highly influenced by diet culture. I thought that being thin was the only way to be seen as attractive. To be deemed as worthy and to be perceived as successful. But something has happened to me in the last five years. It’s been a slow, but steady change that has utterly disrupted these once held beliefs.
