What's a NAAFA Conference Without Fashion?

FOSTER CITY, Calif. - March 12, 2019 - PRLog -- One of the highlights of every NAAFA conference is the fabulous vendor fashion show featuring designer created plus size fashion and this conference is no exception. The NAAFA Board of Directors is excited to announce that NYC based Fashion Blogger and Writer Marcy Cruz will the Celebrity Emcee for the fashion show at the 2019 NAAFA 50^th Anniversary Conference. If you haven't already made plans to do so, join us June 14-16, 2019 at Sam's Town Hotel & Gambling Hall in Las Vegas, NV as we honor our past and create our future.

An 18-year veteran within the plus size fashion industry, Marcy Cruz is on a mission to empower everyone to love the skin they're in. Whether she's sharing her message that fashion is a form of self-care via her blog Fearlessly Just Me (https://www.fearlesslyjustme.net/) or assisting brands in achieving the right fit as an extended sizes fit model signed to State Management, Marcy uses her platform to promote body positivity and equality through her own experiences.

Cruz is one of the co-founders of the Latina Curve Collective (https://www.instagram.com/latinacurvecollective/), an organization that celebrates fellow curvy Latinas doing amazing things in their everyday lives as well as bringing more awareness to the worldwide Latina community and spreading the message of empowerment and positivity.

NAAFA Community Outreach Director and resident Fatshionista, Tigress Osborn, will be coordinating our Saturday evening Fashion Show featuring our conference vendors' fashions! NAAFA has always asked conference attendees to volunteer as models in our fashion show. If you are registered and interested in modeling in the show, make sure to come to the model meeting breakout on Friday.

Joining our incredible line-up of workshop presenters is Plus Size Fashion Model and Influencer Saucye West. In her workshop entitled Living #fatandfree, Saucye's goal is for people to see all the amazing things about themselves. She wants people to know the beauty in freedom and to shed some of the layers that society has placed on us to weigh us down and make us feel like we are not enough. Join Saucye to see what fat freedom is and that it is obtainable. Plan to also experience Saucye's fabulousness during Saturday night's fashion show. Don't miss it!
