There is nothing like feeling stunning and fashion show-ready in beautiful glam and an outfit that not only looks good, but also fits!. My glam team (Natalie Dresheron makeup andFrankie Calireon hair) crushed this look and got me ready for the Tommy Hilfiger brunch on Sunday, Sept 10."

For this look, the Tommy team not only had my sizes, but took two of their skirts I liked, deconstructed them, and made me this custom skirt. Not only that but they also created a matching denim jacket."

15of 16A Dramatic Hair MomentSansho Scott/BFA.com"I make sure to only go to fashion shows that either showcase mid/plus models in the show and for designers who will go one step further to dress a plus-size girl like me. One of the most important parts of my Staud look was the accessories! I decided to pair this dress with blue shoes and a sleek black bag to complement the colors in the dress, also from Staud. I also love a long braid moment thanks to my hairstylist Calire."
