Join Us at the 2009 NAAFA Fashion Show & Auction Dinner
Enjoy plus-size fashions at their best while you help support and celebrate 40 years of size acceptance advocacy efforts at the 2009 NAAFA Fashion Show on July 31, 2009!
This year Washington DC will take its place as the leading plus-size fashion capital of the world as we bring you the NAAFA 2009 Fashion Show & Auction Dinner being held on Friday, July 31, 2009, at the Dulles Airport Marriott. NAAFA is the world's oldest, largest civil rights organization working to improve the lives of people of size. We turn forty years old this year and are going strong with the strength we need to build a new future. This major fund raising event for our organization will feature food, fashion, music and our well known Not-So-Silent Auction.
Plus size fashion designers from around the country will present their latest collections of inspired designs. These talented designers have a sincere desire to see women return to the truth within themselves as expressed through what they wear, giving women of any age and size the opportunity to be truly fabulous. We are happy to announce that we have award winning makeup artist, Maisie Dunbar, to assist our volunteer model participants with their makeup and hair stylists from Paul Mitchell The School Virginia to finish their looks.
Be sure to bring your wallets, checkbooks and credit cards as we will showcase vendors of fashion, accessories and furniture--all catering to the plus size audience.
The event begins with dinner at 7pm on Friday, July 31, 2009. Tickets to this exciting fund raising event are $75 each for the entire fashion-filled evening and may be purchased through July 26, 2009 online by going to http://www.naafaonlin

Here's a very special PART 1 OF 2 video update dedicated to all OUR fans! Mz Liz will send Part 2 once we're done putting the finishing touches, so if you haven't added her to your friends you really should right now LOL!
Tell me what you think and thank you for joining my BBW Revolution! This 'IS' the BBW Generation and with your support we can be positively portrayed in the Media and society. Lets change it so that our children can have a more POSITIVE world.
I want to personally thank you for breaking my 1,000 friend mark and now over 4,000 plays of "I NEED A BBW"!!!
I have a set of 4 songs I have written and am currently recording in hopes that some of YOUR BBW Clubs and Organizations will contact my Manager (Mz Liz #1 on my list) to book me! The both of us also do public speaking on empowering other individuals to not only feel BIG & BEAUTIFUL...BUT... to take steps to encourage acceptance and give a positive view of OUR COMMUNITY with YOUR presence and 'preference' to those around you!
We all have loved ones that are Plus Sized and they too need to know that they ARE BEAUTIFUL... because a person's size DOES NOT constitute beauty..... The media will soon change the portrayal of beauty WITH YOUR HELP!
Lets help the children and teens of this world grow up in a much healthier and acceptable society without any pressure of forcing themselves to be stick thin through unconventional means. There's so much negativity out there and WE need to inject much more POSITIVE vibes.
Thank you for joining me in this BBW REVOLUTION and hope you pass this message on to all those you care and love!
Below is my latest video update. All the comments Mz Liz and I have recieved have been life changing and we will keep working to bring us all together through our BBWGeneration.com site!
