Chinese plus-size influencer champions body positivity with fashion: Video
In Guangzhou, plus-size clothing brand owner Amanda Yao promotes body positivity. She challenges restrictive beauty standards in China, such as thinness and pale skin. Online, sayings like "there are no good women over 50 kilograms" and social media challenges highlight these standards. Yao creates fashionable, high-end clothing for plus-size women, contrasting with the usual "slimming" dark colours.
