Chances are, you’re already a member of a few Facebook groups—maybe it’s one for your neighborhood, a hobby you love, or your favorite podcast. Facebook groups have become a go-to for connection, especially in today’s digitally-driven world. But did you know there’s a thriving network of plus size Facebook groups dedicated to fashion, lifestyle, support, and community?

Oh yes. These groups are more than just another notification—they’re becoming digital lifelines for so many in the plus size community. According to Mark Zuckerberg’s A Privacy-Focused Vision for Social Networking, groups are “by far the fastest-growing areas of online communication.” And it makes sense. People are craving real connection, but in spaces that feel more intimate and affirming—what he calls the “digital equivalent of the living room.”

Unlike public social media profiles, private groups allow people to show up as their most authentic selves. And in the world of plus-size fashion and body acceptance, that level of comfort and safety is everything.

We are lucky to be surrounded by such inspirational and beautiful people on Instagram daily, but there is a large number of our community that aren’t as comfortable sharing their lives in such a public display.
