In this episode, Jessica hears from Michaela Leitz-Aslaksen who founded her consultancy, Confidence & Style, to drive change in the fashion industry by helping brands embrace size inclusivity, authenticity & diversity. 

Having struggled to find directional, on-trend plus-size clothing, Michaela began documenting her experience on Instagram to highlight the untapped demand for plus-size clothing. 

Michaela shares with Jessica her insights into how fashion brands can increase the size of their target market & unlock the spending power of plus-sized customers by providing designers with more education on sizing & fitting techniques. 

Given the importance of reducing overconsumption in the fashion sector, Michaela also explains how on-demand production models & live shopping events can help reduce waste by ensuring that clothing truly accommodates the customers it is aimed at.
