Last week, we dropped the exciting news of our TCFStyle Brunch happening in October. Today, we are sharing the WHY. You see, there’s LA Fashion Month… and then there’s the seat that plus size fashion lovers actually want.

Let’s be real: year after year, Fashion Week sidelines plus size designers, models, and voices. We see the press releases, we read the glossy headlines about “inclusion,” but when it’s time to hit the runway? Curves are erased. Again.

So, instead of waiting for an invite to a table that was never set for us, we built our own.

And on Saturday, October 18th at the Epic Icon Center in Downtown Los Angeles, we’re inviting you to join us for Elomi Lingerie presents the TCFStyle Brunch: Our Table. Our Taste. Our Terms.

A Celebration of Fashion, Style & Community

This isn’t just a brunch. It’s a celebration of everything that makes plus size fashion powerful… the style, the creativity, the culture, the community.

From the moment you walk in, the experience is designed to feel like fashion week, but on our terms: a seated brunch styled with editorial flair, a marketplace filled with size-inclusive indie brands, and a room buzzing with the joy of people who get it.

Because fashion isn’t just about trends. It’s about the way we tell our stories, claim our space, and show up; boldly, unapologetically, and in full style.
