9+ Celebs Who Had Designers Refuse To Dress Them Because Of Their Body Size

Celebrity Designers Refuse To Dress Them Because Of Their Body Size. First of all, It’s hard to believe that in 2019, fashion designers still consider anything bigger than a size two to be “plus-sized” and unworthy of wearing an original designer outfit.

All body types should be accepted and celebrated. That’s the bottom line. Instead of asking women to change who they are, I think it would be a lot easier if designers just started making their clothes in more sizes.

Here is the List of  Celebrity Designers Refuse To Dress Them Because Of Their Body Size :

Bebe Rexha

Bebe Rexha shaded designers for refusing to dress her for the 2019 Grammy’s. Luckily, designer Monsoori, came to their senses and Bebe showed up to the Grammy’s looking fabulous in a red gown.

Beyoncé

Before Beyoncé became Beyoncé, designers weren’t keen on making outfits for her and the rest of the Destiny’s Child group.

During her acceptance speech at the Fashion Icon Awards, she admitted that her mom used to make their costumes by hand because high-end designers “didn’t really want to dress four black, country, curvy girls.”

Ashley Graham

Ashley explained that most brands “flatly” refused to lend Ashley a dress because she wasn’t in the “sample range.”

But thankfully, Coach stepped up and delivered Ashley a stunning gown that fit her perfectly.

Hayden Panettiere

Tom Ford only agreed to dress one person for the 2014 Golden Globes, and it wasn’t Hayden.

But she didn’t let that stop her. Instead, she went out and purchased her own Tom Ford dress.

Bryce Dallas Howard

At the 2016 Golden Globes, when Bryce was asked by an interviewer what designer she was wearing, her response was priceless.

“I just picked it up at Neiman’s this week,” adding “I like having lots of options for a size 6, as opposed to maybe one option, so I always go to department stores.”

Melissa McCarthy

Melissa has spoken out several times about how difficult it is to find fashion-forward outfits that actually fit her body-type.

She eventually became so fed up, that she started up her own fashion line.

Leslie Jones

Back in 2016, Leslie tweeted out about her struggles, trying to find a dress for the premier of her movie Ghostbusters.

“It’s so funny how there are no designers wanting to help me with a premiere dress for movie. Hmmm that will change and I remember everything” she said.

“It makes you feel like you’re ‘less than’ when you only have four options and three of them are in black or blue. It’s really not fun,” Brooks said. “I don’t see why I can’t get to wear Tom Ford or why I can’t wear Gucci or whatever those big name brands are. I don’t understand why I can’t be your ‘It’ girl.”

Gabourey Sidibe

Gabourey has admitted in the past that finding clothing in her size has been difficult, she also sees the bright side of not wearing designer.

“I don’t really care because it gives me more freedom.” she told Haper’s Bazaar.

Christina Hendricks

“It is difficult come awards season, and I need to find a gown to walk down the red carpet in, and there are only size zeros and size twos available. Then it becomes downright annoying because all these designers are saying, ‘We love ‘Mad Men,’ we love Christina, but we won’t make her a dress,” Christina told Glamour. That’s why Celebrity designers refuse to dress them.

Dascha Polanco

“I had a situation with a high-end brand the other day where I had personally invested so much money purchasing their items, and I love what they do, so I had my publicist reach out to their PR team. Their response was, ‘Oh, you’re not the sizes we have, not right now, maybe in the future,’” Dascha told Vogue.

Khloe Kardashian

Khloe had a 40 pound weight-loss transformation over the last few years, but before that, Khloe struggled with her body image and it didn’t help that designers gave all their attention to her sisters and not her.

“There would always be this attention on Kourtney and Kim, but I was too much work for (stylists) or they had nothing in my size. I wasn’t even that crazy big!” Khloe said.
