18 Celebrities Who Had Designers Refuse To Dress Them Due To Their Body Size

It’s difficult to believe that fashion stylists in 2019 are still considering anything bigger than a Size two undeserving of wearing an original designer outfit.

With all body types and figures expected to be appreciated and celebrated, it would be a lot easier if designers start making their clothes in more sizes, instead of asking women to change who they are.

Happyhumanity understands how saddening it can be for many and has compiled celebs who have as well experienced designers refusing to dress them due to their body size.

#1 Bebe Rexha

Bebe Rexha shaded some designers for declining to dress her for the 2019 Grammys. Fortunately, Designer Monsoori did the magic and Bebe stormed the Red Carpet looking all gorgeous in a red gown.

She shared her anger in an Instagram Video

‘I had my team hit out a lot of designers and a lot of them do not want to dress me  for the Grammys because I am too big.’ Bebe explained

She added: If a size 6 or 8 is too big, then I don’t know what to tell you and I don’t want to wear your expletive dress.

Bebe’s Video gingered actress Mayim Bialik and in turn, she also commented

Mayim Bialik then linked Bebe to a designer that would willingly dress someone who’s size 8.

#2 Beyonce

Designers have over time not been keen on making outfits for her and the rest of the group, Destiny Child.

At the Fashion Icon Awards, Beyonce admitted her mom used to make their costumes using her hand

Now, she has become one of the biggest superstars of our time and that’s definitely a joke on them.

#3 Ashley Graham

Designers refused to lend Ashley a dress because she was tagged ‘Not In Sample Range.’ But fortunately, Coach stepped up and saved Ashley with a stunning gown that fit her stunningly.

It appears absurd that a model has a hard time finding a designer to give her a dress. It shouldn’t be a problem.

#4 Hayden Panettiere

Designer Tom Ford accepted to dress just one person for the 2014 Golden Globes, and interestingly, Hayden wasn’t the one. Rather than being all down and unhappy, Hayden went on to buy for herself a Tom Ford dress.

#5 Bryce Dallas Howard

Bryce’s response was priceless when questioned what designer, she was wearing at the 2016 Golden Globes. ‘I Just picked it up the Neiman’s this week.’

#6 Melissa McCarthy

On several occasions, Melissa has voiced out complaining of how challenging it is for her to find a fashion outfit that fits her body size. She got so fed up and launched her own Fashion Line.

#7 Leslie Jones

In 2016, Leslie tweeted revealing her struggles when finding a dress for the premiere of Ghostbusters.

#8 Danielle Brooks

‘I don’t see any reason as to why I can’t get to wear Tom Ford, Gucci or whatever those big name brands are. I don’t understand why I can’t be your ‘IT’ girl.’ Brooks had said.

#9 Gabourey Sidibe

Sidibe has admitted finding clothing in her size has been challenging and also sees the bright side of not wearing designer. ‘I don’t care anymore. It gives me more freedom.’

#10 Jennifer Hudson

With an impressive weight-loss change, Hudson’s style-wise has become a lot easier.

‘Many opportunities open up when you are on the other side as  I am now.’ Hudson admitted.

#11 Barbie Ferreira

Ferreira, a plus-sized model revealed her frustration via a tweet: ‘Curvy women are not permitted to be edgy, not permitted to be stylish or permitted to explore their figure like everyone else.’

‘Don’t expect much from any designer. Look in the future until people wake tf up.’ She added.

#12 Rachel Bloom

Actress Rachel revealed she bought a $3500 Gucci gown for the 2017 Emmy as it’s difficult for her to get places to lend her because she’s not a size zero.

#13 Amber Riley

Right after Gabi Fresh tweeted a string of complaints about gown size for plus size women, Amber Riley stepped in agreeing and saying ‘We can’t win.’

#14 Octavia Spencer

Before the 2012 Golden Globes, Spencer revealed to reports she hadn’t found a dress yet.

‘No designers are coming to me.’ She added.

#15 Aidy Bryant

After begging designers to make her dresses for years, Aidy got through to Eloquii when they agreed to make her a dress for the 2016 Emmys.

#16 Christina Hendricks

‘It became downright annoying as all these designers are saying ‘We love Mad Men, We so much love Christina, but we can’t make her a dress.’ Hendricks had expressed her frustration.

#17 Dasha Polanco

A designer response to Dasha: ‘Oh, you’re not the sizes we presently have right now, maybe in the future.’

#18 Khloe Kardashian

‘There would always be this attention on Kim and Kourtney. I was too much work for stylists or they had nothing in my size. I wasn’t even that big! Khloe said.

It’s, however, expected that designers get off their high horses and wake up from the dream that all women need to be a size 0.
