PLUS Model Street Style: Sommer Green
PLUS Model Sreet Style: Sommer Green
Street style is always a great way to see what’s out there on the fashion scene and be inspired to create your own fabulous street style. We love to see a model’s street style when she’s off duty and living her everyday life. And we wanted to share that with our readers. So we will be featuring plus models in the industry who will share their street style with you and give you a glimpse into their lives.

Sommer Green with PMM Editor-in-Chief Madeline Jones
Name: Sommer Green
Hometown: Inglewood, CA
Size: 14/16
Height: 5’9″
Modeling since: 2010
Summer trend I’m most excited about:
The summer trend I am most excited about is the double split maxi tops and dusters. I like that they are so versatile and can be paired with jeans, shorts, or leggings.
Style icon:
I don’t really have a style icon; I’d more so call it my “motivation icons”. They motivate me to step outside of my comfort zone and try things outside the box. Some of my favorite stylists, models and bloggers at the moment are Reah Norman, Ivory Jinelle, Olivia Campbell and Loey Lane.
My Must Have Items:
My must have items are my cell phone, bottle of water, Carmex, and Neroli Water.
My Favorite Designer/Brands:
I’m not big on labels; I like certain collections from a range of designers. Right now, I love the Zelie for She Spring/Summer 2015 Collection, Jibri’s Spring & Pool Side collection, Rue107’s Nude Collection, ASOS and City Chic.
My Perfect “Day Off” is:
My perfect day off is at the beach with my Nook fully charged and loaded with Sci-fi/Fantasy novels.
My Personal Fashion Aesthetic:
My personal fashion aesthetic is comfortable with a bit of edge. I tend to have a hint of tomboy flare to my outfits. There’s always something hard mixed in with soft.
3 Words That Best Describe Me: Loyal, Giving, Logical.
We are loving Sommer’s street style and how laid-back but stylish it looks. A graphic tee doesn’t always have to be paired with jeans to create a nice casual look. Paired with a skirt and flats or even some cute sneakers can really give the tee a stylish kick and soften it a bit but maintain its edge. The orange skirt gives this look just the right pop of color. We also love the length of top, which is a longer cropped tee.

SwimStar All Stars Partnership With Renowned Plus-size Model and Swimsuits For All Ambassador, Denise Bidot
Inclusive Swimwear Brand Collaborates with Prominent Plus-Size Model Denise Bidot to Empower Aspiring Models…
Swimsuits For All, a pioneer in inclusive swimwear, proudly introduces its inaugural SwimStar All Stars campaign in partnership with renowned plus-size model and Swimsuits For All ambassador, Denise Bidot. This collaboration marks a significant milestone, nearly a decade following Denise’s groundbreaking “Beach Body, Not Sorry” campaign with Swimsuits For All in 2015, which showcased unretouched imagery aimed at promoting unapologetic confidence.
Denise Bidot and Swimsuits For All have jointly unveiled the SwimStar All Stars nationwide search, dedicated to discovering emerging talent in the realm of swimsuit modeling. Encouraging aspiring models to share their personal narratives, the initiative aims to inspire women of all backgrounds, shapes, and sizes. Following a rigorous selection process, Brittany Wilborn, Camryn Henry, and Sharon Clawson emerged as the chosen winners. In January 2024, these models embarked on a transformative journey to Harbour Island, where they had the unparalleled opportunity to shoot alongside Denise under the expert direction of internationally acclaimed photographer and director, Ben Watts.
Reflecting on the initiative, Denise Bidot remarked, “This was a truly exceptional opportunity to celebrate the diversity of plus-size models and cultivate an atmosphere of support, empowerment, and knowledge sharing. The camaraderie on set was palpable, and I am deeply honored to impart the wisdom and insights I’ve garnered throughout my career. Opportunities like these are scarce for plus-size models in the industry, and it has been a privilege to collaborate with the exceptional team at Swimsuits for All to bring this campaign to fruition.”
The models showcased the latest swimwear offerings from the Swimsuits for All 2024 collection, featuring innovative designs tailored to meet the diverse needs of women, including:
Feel-good Fits: Addressing common concerns such as tummy bulges and fit issues, Swimsuits for All offers a range of fits designed to instill confidence and comfort in every body. Incorporating features like Power Mesh for a smooth, flattering silhouette, and adjustable straps for customizable support, the collection caters to various body types.
Bold Prints & Colors for Summer: The summer swimwear collection boasts vibrant colors and captivating prints, injecting excitement and personality into beach and poolside attire. From vivid neon hues to tropical motifs, the collection encourages self-expression and style experimentation.
Liquid Shine: Introducing Liquid Shine, a striking swim fabrication characterized by a glossy, liquid-like finish, adding an edgy allure to beachwear. Available in multiple silhouettes, including bikinis, Liquid Shine ensures you stand out with confidence.
Bikinis that Suit You Best: The Mix & Match Bikini collection offers a personalized approach to swimwear, allowing individuals to mix and match colors and silhouettes for a bespoke look tailored to their preferences.
Beyond showcasing inclusive swimwear designs, the SwimStar All Stars campaign embodies a celebration of women uplifting one another in an industry often marked by competitiveness. Throughout the week-long shoot, models engaged in one-on-one sessions with Denise, fostering meaningful dialogue about the evolving representation of plus-size bodies in swim and fashion.
Jordan Hauser, Senior Director of E-Commerce & Marketing, expressed, “This campaign transcends conventional notions of body positivity and representation in the swim and fashion industries. It is a testament to the power of storytelling and authenticity in reflecting the diverse experiences of our customer base. We are committed to fostering a movement where women find strength in unity, and we are thrilled to embark on this journey alongside Denise Bidot, one of the industry’s foremost advocates for inclusivity.”
The summer 2024 swimwear collection is now available. For further details about Swimsuits For All and the SwimStar All Stars campaign, please visit www.swimsuitsforall.com.
