What Is #BaeWalks?

A lot of awareness is being raised about body positivity. The truth is that the body positivity issue isn’t something that only women face. A lot of men of size have issues with their bodies and have to face negative stereotypes about being a person of size. Little by little things are starting to change. This year, we have seen a lot of clothing brands begin to cater to men of size. To be truthful, it’s a very exciting time! For years men of size have been forced to deal with a uniform look. This year at Full Figured Fashion Week, we witnessed something groundbreaking. Gwen Devoe and her hard working staff put together a fashion show showcasing clothing companies that cater to men of size! It was phenomenal! The event was sponsored by Mo Vaughn’s MVP Collections and consisted of SOS Denim and The Brandon Kyle Collection. Doesn’t that sound amazing?! The irony was that I could hardly breathe during the fashion show.

I was humbled and honored to participate in the “Bae Walks” fashion show! But, I was nervous. I kept thinking the craziest things! “What if I trip over my shoelaces?”  I thought. “What if the light reflects from my forehead and blinds the audience?” I know that I am exaggerating, but it felt as if my heart was lodged in my throat. I wasn’t nervous before the event, but when it came close to show time, the feelings were uncontrollable. I was nervous, but being nervous is no reason to quit or back out in any way. So, this forehead and I pushed through! The audience was receptive to all of the models involved. Special thanks to the audience, they made us feel very welcomed! I am happy that I had the opportunity to push for body advocacy. #BaeWalks ended up being a great event.

These brands showcased contemporary fashion for men of size. If you identify as a brawn, big and tall or a plus male. The clothing definitely fits you. The styles are diverse and can fit any occasion. I am honestly impressed. I enjoyed the camaraderie with the other models and I appreciate the support and encouragement from everyone male and female alike. There were great strides that were made for the #bodypositivitycause and I am happy to be a part. Much respect to Gwen Devoe and the Full Figured Fashion Week team.

Grooming Products Just For Men?

If you haven’t noticed, I am a guy. There are times where I don’t want to iron. I want to reach in my laundry bag and find the clothes with the least wrinkles. There are times where I just want to throw on a sweatshirt and call it a day. I know that I am not the only man of size or man for that matter that goes through this struggle. But, as men of size, big and tall, brawn and plus male we have to make sure that our hygiene is up to par. There aren’t many products that are catered to the specific needs of men. Why are we left out?

Who And What Is Harry’s?

Harry’s is a men’s grooming company. I will be honest, I was a bit reserved at first. But, I ended up giving the products a try.

I received a razor, a face scrub, and some lip balm. I was a bit reluctant. I like my lips to be soft and moisturized, but I don’t want the lip balm to look as if I am wearing lip gloss.  What stood out for me was the lip balm that had eucalyptus that gave my lips a refreshing feeling minus the gloss!

I am also a fan of the facial scrub! The eucalyptus made my face feel extra clean! My face felt like it was scrubbed by babies. I thought there was an orchestra and beams of light on my face. 

The razor was lite and easy to handle. I tried the razor and generally pleased with the outcome. I would recommend Harry’s, especially the grooming products. They don’t leave your face dry and your facial hair brittle after a wash. My face felt smooth and felt ready for a night on the town or to ready to start the day.  Let us know what you think!

A few of King Size Directs offerings. King Size Direct has something for every man of size.

Is There A Stop Shop For Men Of Size?

There are few clothing outlets for men of size. There can be some difficulty for a man who is big and tall, big and tall, brawn or plus size to find quality and fashionable clothing. Usually, men of size have to piece together our clothing. We have to go from store to store, website to website. The process of shopping can be annoying and frustrating. Yes, there are times where I want to find clothing and piece them together, but there are many instances where I am just not in the mood to shop around.

Enter: King Size Direct

I first came across King Size Direct, I was impressed. There were so many offerings for every aspect of life for a man of size. King Size Direct offers everything from athletic wear to pajamas. King Size even offers pajamas! Who would have thought that “onesies” were made for us? King Size has us covered. What I was most impressed with is the jewelry and fashion accessories for men that are available on the website. In many cases, my wrists are too large and some bracelets and watches do not fit. King Size Direct has an answer.

A watch that can actually fit you!

Jewelry

The jewelry that King Size offers sets the brand apart from many other big and tall brands. If the watch that is offered isn’t enough, make sure that you check out the rings that are carried as well. The brush stoned ring is a solid accessory to add to your collection.

I couldn’t sit here and write all of the offerings of King Size Direct, but I strongly suggest that you check out all of their offerings. I am certain that you will find something that fits your aesthetic.  Don’t ever feel because you are a man of size that you are limited in expressing yourself through fashion. This is one company that keeps men of size in mind. Leave your comments and opinions below. Or you can email us kavah.king@gentlemenscurb.com Until next time.
