About

Welcome to Fashionopolis!

Let me start by introducing myself. My name is Amena and I am one of India’s first plus size fashion blogger and body positive influencer. I am also stylist, fashion consultant, and content creator. I cover fashion, beauty, women’s lifestyle, body positivity, pop culture, and intersectional feminism on my blog Fashionopolis.

What is Fashionopolis?
‘Fashionopolis’ literally means Fashion-City. However, my blog is much more than just a city of fashion. Before starting my blog, I worked in the Indian fashion industry as a fashion designer and bridal consultant. While working, I realised the dearth of plus size fashion and complete lack of plus size representation in Indian fashion magazines and media and this inspired me to start my own blog. With the aim to create space, visibility, and representation for non-thin and plus size bodies, through Fashionopolis I hope to dispel the hegemonic cultural standards of beauty and worth and create a more size inclusive mainstream beauty and fashion narrative.

Apart from Fashionopolis, my bylines have appeared in Femina, Feminism In India, Hauterfly, Live More Zone, Mumbai Mag, among others. I have been featured on Miss Malini, BuzzFeed India, Bustle, Grazia, Femina, HT Brunch, Times Of India, She The People and The Hindu.
