Fatshionistas is a term use by fat fashionistas. The term is use by many fat fashion blogs such as Young Fat & Fabulous, Fat Girls like nice clothes too, Fatshionistas, The musing of a fatshionista, Le blog de Big Beauty.
"Fatshionistas are bending the rules of what is and isn’t “acceptable” for larger women to wear, dispensing with the notion that the only thing plus-size women care about is comfort and figure-flattering garb. These women are dressing to look good, yes, but they’re not content with their only choices being jersey wrap dresses or shapeless tunics. “My great hope is that big girls will rebel, and start buying the higher end products,” says Gammill. “The traditional plus-size retailers will have to up their game. As it is now, I love Lane Bryant right-fit jeans and their seamless underwear, but the quality of their actual clothing is embarrassing. I mean, I'd use them to wash my car, but only the station wagon; not the Cadillac.”"- Quote from The Daily Beast.
