Known for her body positivity advocacy and vibrant personality, Remi hyped herself up for the event by proclaiming, “Fire last year, fire this year!” Her presence at the show not only highlighted her personal growth but also emphasized the importance of representation in the fashion industry. In this article, we will explore Remi’s journey, her impact on body positivity, and the significance of her participation in such a prestigious event.
Remi Bader’s Journey to the Victoria’s Secret Runway
“Remi Bader has always been an advocate for body positivity and self-love.”
From her early days on social media to becoming a recognized figure in the fashion industry, Remi has consistently used her platform to promote acceptance and confidence among individuals of all body types. Her journey to the Victoria’s Secret runway is a testament to her hard work and dedication.
“I don’t really plan it out. I really go with it. Like today, I feel freaking good because I’m in Victoria’s Secret,” the social media star said in 2023. “I look good. I feel sexy. My boyfriend told me I look good.”
Having diverse body types represented on major platforms like Victoria’s Secret is crucial. Remi’s participation in the fashion show sends a powerful message about inclusivity. It challenges traditional beauty standards and encourages brands to embrace models of all shapes and sizes. This shift is essential for fostering a more accepting environment within the fashion world.
Remi’s Transformation: More Than Just Physical Changes
“Remi Bader’s transformation goes beyond just her appearance; it’s about her mindset.”
As she prepares for events like the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, Remi emphasizes mental health and self-empowerment. Her journey reflects a commitment to personal growth, showcasing how confidence can be cultivated from within.
In an extended, open caption on Instagram in August, Bader talked about her weight loss and body image and how she’s been met with criticism from both extremes, with some calling her “too big” and others calling her “too small” in various situations.
“I hide a lot of my comments on here for my own mental health. Words like ‘fat’ ‘whale’ ‘obese’ ‘skinny’ ‘tiny’ to name a few,” she wrote alongside a video of her trying on various outfits over the years. “But of course I still see them and it’s hard to see the constant conversation about my body on this app, because I also wonder, why does that need to be the most important thing about me?”
Body Positivity is important
Given that her physique has “fluctuated” for a significant portion of her life, she acknowledged that her perception of herself has remained constant. “My brain has never been able to process whether I was larger or smaller, or to accurately perceive my appearance. Everyone outside of me was telling me that, Bader continued.
In closing, the founder of Fangirl by Remi expressed her hope to one day discuss the “immense amount of trauma” she has experienced in the past year relating to her body.
“I am a lot bigger than my body and will always be the same Remi no matter what I weigh, and that I am sure of,” she said.
