Eloquii’s Black Creatives Project: What is it?
Eloquii is easily one of my favorite destinations for trendy plus-size fashion. They offer a wide range of dresses to outerwear to jeans. These fashionable finds come in sizes 14-28. Eloquii first made its way on my radar in 2016 at theCurvycon. I tried on one of their matching two-piece set and I haven’t stopped shopping since.

Now fast-forward to 2020. Many brands were called out for their lack of diversity.  Eloquii created The Black Creatives Project. Launched in July 2020 to elevate, support, and financially invest in Black talent. Both influencers and creative professionals.
