She has been very body-positive about her curves and made sure people got the message this time. She’s previously mentioned to People, "I want to wear something because I love it, not because it follows the rules. If I ever end up on the worst-dressed list, it’s not going to make me fall apart. I want to look great and feel good and be comfortable, but at the same time, none of this really matters. This is the fun stuff.” Good for you, Chrissy!
