| Tiffany McGuire, plus size fashion blogger |
I'm fascinated at times at our Monica and Rachel relationship. I do not have the passion for the fashion I "fall into" that she has. But I've definitely learned a lot about fashion and sewing from her. The physical vision boards from her Katharine Gibbs days have been replaced by virtual ones on Pinterest. And she's recently taken the plunge into blogging her trials and tribulations as a Glamazon and sewing her own clothes. And her clothes are wearing her (I learned that term from her too).

My name is Tiffany McGuire. I am a seamstress, if you wanna
call it that, and a selfish sewer, you can definitely call it that, and a
newfound fashion blogger for the plus-size diva – that would be me. I’m
still in my developmental stage, I’m still learning. I’m like the only person
who actually sews and runs a fashion blog for plus-size women- it’s a whole new
element. I think it will give me an edge up.
Do you have any idea
when you got into fashion? Was there a “moment” or an “era”?
Yup. I always said as soon as I start making any kind of
money, I was gonna change my look. So that has to be my earliest memory of it
cause god knows the first 3 years of high school were disastrous. They were
life-changers. And looking back I’m the extreme opposite of it—I mean my face
looks the same, I’m probably around the same size but no one recognizes me.
Ever. I’m that different.
Your look is that
different…
I wore granny square sweaters and mid-calf skirts, opaque
tights and old lady shoes. Come on. Totally
different.
