Our Founder, Mary Beth Cooper
Welcome to the world of Curvicality: a magazine – and community – for curvy, plus-size women.
I am a lupus warrior. Having an autoimmune disorder can be complex, but I have been blessed as I am still able to have a normal life with an occasional hiccup.
As we walked through the shopping center to the grocery store, my daughter asks, “How much longer do I have to wear this mask, Mommy? My mouth is hot!”
I truly can’t pinpoint when my anxiety and depression started, but I was bullied at a very young age and dealt with many insecurities growing up.
I opened Curvology, my plus-size clothing boutique, in November of 2018. My original business model was to create a safe space for women to walk in the door and find fashion-forward clothing that was not sold to the masses and not available anywhere else in town.
“You’re so tall. You should definitely model!”
Sometimes, as moms, we can get stuck in the lives we’ve created. Those created lives, at times, have a way of blinding us to our destiny, even though it has been there all along.
