This season, BAACAL invites you to step into the holidays with sustainable luxury and unapologetic glamour—styled through the eyes of Texas-bred, New York–based fashion writer and content creator Katie Bradshaw.
As a celebrated journalist for V Magazine, Conde Nast Traveler, and The Curvy Fashionista, Katie brings a sharp editorial lens to everything she curates.
Known for pairing Southern charm with New York sophistication, she is a muse for anyone who loves fashion with a touch of glitz, polish, and intention.
Her Holiday Party Edit reflects the essence of who she is: thoughtful, elevated, and always ready for the next dazzling moment.
For this collaboration, Katie hand-selected four signature BAACAL pieces designed to carry plus-size women through every festive event—whether it’s a dimly lit speakeasy dinner date, an intimate gathering with friends, or a rooftop countdown celebrating the year ahead.
Her edit is grounded in the belief that style should never be compromised by sizing, and that women of the true size majority deserve clothing crafted with precision, beauty, and movement. BAACAL, founded by designer Cynthia Vincent, was created on that very ethos: luxury fashion should not just include plus-size women—it should be designed for them.
Katie’s Holiday Edit centers on timeless staples with thoughtful details, from lace hems and reversible finishes to sustainably sourced premium fabrics.

Her picks—the Lace Silk Skirt, the shimmering Sequin Statement Skirt, and the boldly refined Aria Python Trench—illustrate her love of classic silhouettes elevated with modern touches. Katie describes her aesthetic as effortlessly transitioning from “9–5 to 5–9,” and these pieces speak to the fast-paced rhythm of her life in New York City, where graduate school, editorial meetings, and evening events often blend seamlessly across a single day.
True to her personal style philosophy, Katie encourages BAACAL women to lean into accessories and adornment to transform any outfit into something unforgettable.

“Don’t be afraid to add all the accessories,” she says. “Throw a sweater over your shoulders, add a ring stack, or lace gloves—the options are endless.”
For her, accessories aren’t afterthoughts; they are intentional exclamation points that bring a look to life and make a powerful statement. And with BAACAL’s commitment to sustainability—small-batch production, premium fabrics, and seasonless designs—Katie sees styling as both a celebration of personal expression and an extension of mindful fashion.
Katie Bradshaw's Holiday Party Edit is an invitation to embrace confident dressing.
