My Fat Lady

MyFatLady Bio - Instagram @My.fat.lady

My fat lady was born in 2013, a full-grown woman with lots of curves and a matching attitude. She is my alter ego, born when one summer I was losing my curves, and was afraid to lose my identity with it. She is my tribute to roundness and women in all shapes and sizes. When we never seem satisfied with our bodies, my fat lady celebrates her own in every pose she strikes and every doughnut she devours. Fearless and utterly light (in spirit) she will turn heads and create conversations wherever she goes.
