Before starting the Wool& 100 Day Dress challenge, Liesje Sandler felt limited in her clothing options as a plus size woman. Though she had always loved fashion, she felt that fashion didn’t love her back. Fast forward to 100 days later, Liesje went from a wardrobe she described as “sad” to finding joy and confidence in her clothes - and having fun getting dressed.
In this episode we talk all about Liesje’s journey and, ultimately, the transformative power of experimentation, being creative and getting uncomfortable. We explore how she became inspired by a diverse community challenging the traditional media ideals of what a body should look like. And we discuss choosing sustainable clothing over fast fashion, how having a few *right* pieces in your wardrobe can make up for having lots of *wrong* pieces and dressing with bright, bold statement colors.
Plus, hear Liesje’s top tip if you’re looking to try the 100 Day Dress Challenge for yourself.
