Milwaukee’s Fat Body Hotties celebrates fat joy and liberation through clothing swaps
Fat Body Hotties is here to celebrate fat joy in Milwaukee and they’re proud about it. Sarah Chojnacki started the group after seeing a need for affordable and size-inclusive clothing. Alongside their co-organizer, Ashley Mertes, they regularly host free clothing swaps for fat folks.
Lake Effect’s Xcaret Nuñez spoke with Chojnacki and Mertes about how the group has created community through its inclusive and accessible events.
The next clothing swap is tomorrow, Saturday October 11.
