Plus Size Fashion Tour Adventure in Paris with Teena Hughes
2012
Hi! My name's Teena and I LOVE PARIS. I've created a Plus Size Fashion Tour Adventure in Paris and I'd love it if you could join me!
Paris is one of the top fashion capitals of the world, and you may be surprised to find out there are some gorgeous plus size clothing stores to be found.
I have lived in Paris several times, and whilst there I learnt the amazing skill of handpainting onto white silk, to create gorgeous designs which I then turn into unique wearable art, (which you'll find available on this website).
I now pop back to Paris whenever I can, at least once per year, to host a series of Adventures (or Workshops).
Plus size shopping? In Paris??!
In the last few years I've noticed some gorgeous plus-size stores popping up all over Paris, and I'd love to show them to you - I can even translate French if you need me to - and we'll basically enjoy days of adventures and fun with like-minded souls.
So - ready for a Gorgeous Goddess adventure?
Come join me on a Plus Size fashion extravaganza in Paris, France!
