Fat, Queer, and Bridal AF - It's Alysia Cole Styling!

The Feminist Wedding Podcast

Alysia Cole is a hero of bridal fashion and body love, and if you don’t follow her already, then get prepared to fall deep into the TikTok vortex because once you see her and hear her speak - about bridal fashion, about couture, about human rights, about body love and acceptance… you will not want to turn away.

I sat down with her to talk about…

• How she developed her expertise, and how she turns it into wedding content that is both hilarious and educational

• The traditionally narrow view of weddings (who they are for, what you can wear, how it should look) versus the more expansive view that welcomes a variety of wedding styles, of marriers, of budgets, etc.

• Finding plus size at every price point, and the benefits and challenges that go along with each budget

• The pressure of wedding dress shopping and diet culture in the wedding industry

• Queer wedding fashion!

It’s such a good episode. Go give it a listen! And then come follow us on Instagram.

Find Alysia Cole Styling on Instagram, on TikTok, and on her website.

At the end of the episode, Alysia mentioned her new offer, a styling consultation call, which you can check out here.
