About this episode
Johanna and Malena have noticed a recent decline in body diversity, both on the runway and among celebrities (hello, Ozempic). Was body inclusivity just a passing trend? And how does this shift make us feel about our own bodies? Navigating society’s beauty standards is definitely complicated. And as sewing influencers, Malena and Johanna also want to present themselves, and in particular their creations, in the best light– quite literally. So being non-judgmental toward ourselves is often easier said than done. On the flip side, sewing can actually help ease some of these pressures and Malena shares her best fitting tips for all of us with three-dimensional bodies.
