19 women who prove white was made for plus-size fashion

There's a pretty famous (and highly debatable) fashion rule most women follow: Don't wear white before Memorial Day and after Labor Day. Unfortunately, plus-size women are often expected to live by another debatable fashion rule: Don't wear white AT ALL. 

The crisp, summery look is usually described as a color that makes curvier bodies "look bigger" as opposed to a sleek black ensemble. But the truth is, that's an old way of thinking — and plus-size women should show up in whatever color works for them.

Here are some of our favorite curvy and plus-size women slaying in white:

Curvy girls are unapologetically wearing white in every style imaginable.

They have no fear in showing the rest how it's done.

Even celebrities are in on it, like "Orange Is The New Black" star Cindy Hayes.
