Mys Tyler: Fashion that fits

As a plus sized woman, sometimes you can get down on your body. You think clothes don’t look good on you, and that nobody makes them to fit your type and style. Mys Tyler has been amazing in changing that mindset. I look forward to the weekly themes, put together outfits and pieces I may not have worn in a long time, and play dress up again! I love the community of women this is building. I love having people that will love my new outfit to share and finding new ones from others. This has been a game changer for my self-esteem.

I’ve been a Pinterest and Instagram junkie for years. And while there’s a lot of great inspiration on there, one of the things I’ve learned recently in my never ending struggle to outfit my plus size body, is it’s not just the size of your body but also the height, your bone structure, and the way flesh lays on you. Imagine my utter delight to find that I could be matched to other fashionistas based on height, based on dress size, based on cup size, find people with nearly identical builds to myself, and then as I fall in love with outfits there’s links to where I can find the garments? Are you kidding me!?!? It’s perfect. And they keep making improvements all the time.

Getting to experience this app growing in real time has been incredibly rewarding. I’m able to discover clothing and brands from people who have a similar size and shape, and I’m able to see styling choices I never would have thought of, plus contributors provide links to items to my minimize searching.

There’s lots of room for this app to grow for sure - more contributors, etc. but the mission of Mys Tyler is great and the app is a refreshing space that is definitely helping my journey through working on body image and fashion. 💜

Mys Tyler is genius because you are matched with women like you! Your feed will show styles based on your features. This makes it so much easier and more fun to online shop. Definitely check it out!

I downloaded this app because of an IG ad I saw. It showed a sign-up page with different gender options, and I got excited! I love the idea of this app, and as a butch, GNC woman finding clothes that fit can be very challenging. The thought of having a platform where I could maybe get ideas an give suggestions to others like me was exciting, since all of the other fashion-disrupting services (Stitchfix, for example) are for… well, not people like me. Unfortunately, Mys Tyler was a letdown. The image I saw in the ad isn’t actually a part of the app, it doesn’t exist. I thought I’d keep going anyway, but then you have to put in your sizes in women’s clothing only - I don’t know my dress size! I haven’t worn a real bra in 8 years, no idea! I do, however, know my size in suits and slacks. I think this is probably a really great app for some women, but not women like me. Which is ok - but, FYI Mys Tyler developers - there’s definitely a market for a social network app like yours for gender non-conforming or gender creative folks! ALL of us have taken YEARS trying to figure out what works on our bodies, and where to buy it. Communication crowdsourcing would be a huge help. Just a thought.

Not only does it allow me to track my daily outfits - but I can get honest feedback. I LOVE that I can follow women who look like me and not Instagram models or “influencers”. The shop feature is great too because I don’t have to search comments for info. It’s just all right there!

I have been a part of Mys Tyler since the beginning of the year, and I am so wowed by this startup platform. As a consumer, I love being able to fill my feed with other people (similar and different from my body type) and see what the latest fashions are. As a contributor, I love bringing my own personal flare and sharing it with others - I’ve already reached 1000 followers! Everyone I have come across in the community has been so lovely and supportive. Definitely recommend this forward-thinking platform.

This is an amazing app that enables women of all ages, shapes and sizes to find women with body types similar to theirs, and see how a variety of outfits might look on them. It’s evolving over time and only getting better. Recently Mys Tyler unveiled a feature where a daily inspiration is given. (Ex pink/animal prints). This allows we women to think outside the box and consider options that we may never have though of otherwise. I love this app and send my many thanks to the entrepreneurial women who have created it.

It’s fun to share my favorite outfits and it’s really easy to grow your following there 🖤
