We Asked Curve Model Bianca Krigovsky What Her Favourite Brands To Shop Are

CURVES, NO COMPROMISE

By Cali Westmoreland | 26th February 2026

We all know the unspoken truth: not every brand is built with everybody in mind. For all the talk of inclusivity, extended sizing too often feels like an afterthought – a token rail tucked away at the back of the store, a limited drop online, a silhouette that hasn’t quite been reimagined for curves. The fashion industry is fluent in the language of diversity in theory, but in practice? It still has catching up to do.

And if anyone truly knows which brands are walking the walk, it’s the women navigating it every day. The ones who’ve learned which cuts actually contour, which fabrics hold and sculpt, which designers understand proportion beyond a standard sample size. So, we went straight to a source we trust.

Known as your curvy Polly Pocket and a go-to fashion authority, Bianca Krigovsky steps onto the scene as a modern embodiment of femininity, where curves are celebrated, style is intentional, and confidence is worn loudly. And because gatekeeping never helped anyone, we’re diving into Bianca’s insider edit: the brands she swears by, the fit secrets she lives by, and the curve-inclusive finds that genuinely deliver.

What are your top 5 -10 curve fashion brands right now, and what do you love about each of them?

  1. Bohemian Traders – amazing quality clothing, each piece feels like someone has really thought through how it would fit on women. It has a great size range, and it’s an Aus brand too (YAY).

  2. SNDYS The Label – An OG brand for me, they’ve always had an amazing size range (but I swear no one knows about it???). From basics to going out, their range slays every time, and they’re always right on the trends, while putting their own twist on things to keep it interesting.

  3. Never Fully Dressed – The coolest clothing brand! No one does clothing like NFD, and I love finding interesting pieces here. They have a large size range and fit well on curves, in my experience! With this, their representation is great, and I always feel special whenever I wear their pieces.

  4. Fayt The Label – An unreal brand. I love everything they stand for – wonderful representation, their clothes are super comfy, and their basics are elite. The price point is really reasonable, plus I love that you can go into physical stores to try things on!

  5. Meshki – I can always find a piece that will suit me, and generally fit great on my curves! Some of my best denim shorts are from here, which is hard to find personally.

When you’re shopping, what makes a brand stand out to you as truly size-inclusive?

Personally, I want to see girls who look like me in the clothes. There are a number of brands out there that may go up to a size 22, but they don’t advertise this, nor do they hire curve models or repost plus-size girls on their socials.

I want brands to be promoting all their sizes and all their customers/influencers, not just size 6. Also, stocking all sizes in-store is way more important to the curve community than brands might think. If you’re going to be size inclusive, you may as well go the whole way. Curve girls WANT to buy all the same clothes as everyone else. The market is there, but it doesn’t always feel terribly welcoming.

In your opinion, what do fashion brands often get wrong when designing for curvier bodies? Anything you’d like to see change?

Some brands do this really well, and others need help! Something I find very common is brands just adding on centimetres everywhere as the sizes get larger; however, this should be a really intentional process, as you can really tell when it’s done right or not. Of course, bust, waist, hip, yes, please increase for larger sizes, but why are we increasing the length of the garment?

Another common issue is that brands may have a curve-specific range, which is a great addition, and I love to see it. However, oftentimes, they will create a full new collection for this curve range, instead of just adjusting for increased sizing of the straight size range. This new curve collection is often very different from the style of the brand (e.g. clothes that middle-aged women love, yet for a brand for 20-year-olds). So, personally, I don’t want a curve-specific range; I want to buy the same clothes as the straight-size collection, just in my size.

Is there a specific brand you think is really pushing the conversation forward in terms of fit, representation, or design?

I’ve seen awesome work coming from All For Mimi. They’re really showing up in the plus-size space representation-wise. All products are seen on a curve model and are always included in shoots, socials and sizing. I think the way they’ve just made this the status quo for them is very important and sends a great message.

We see you love being at the beach – what are your go-to bikini brands?

I love the beach and swimming SO MUCH! If I could spend every day there, I would. I have so much swimwear it’s crazy, but I feel like I’ve tried and tested it all by now!

So my faves include:

  1. Bydee Swim – stunning prints and lots of details. Think beading, embroidery, etc.
  2. Monday Swim – if you love classic styles, then this is for you.
  3. Riot Swim – if you want funky and interesting cut pieces, this is your brand. Their one-pieces are especially unreal!

With her insider eye and unapologetic love of fashion, Bianca Krigovsky reminds us that curve style isn’t about settling for what fits, it’s about demanding brands that truly see, celebrate and design for every body, proving that when inclusivity is done right, everybody wins.
