"Marilyn Monroe was actually a size 12. However, that size 12 is not accurate by today's sizing charts. Nevertheless, she was celebrated for her curves. So, through the years, spanning from the early 1960s to 2021, a lot has changed. People are bigger, there's no denying that. And even though it was a gradual process, the fashion industry sure took their dear sweet time catching up to this underserved demographic."—Kaylene Peoples, Fashion Talk from the article, "Curvy and Proud of It: & They Call Me Plus Size"

For Black Design Collective, we meet Leslie and Justice Bessent who have taken luxury shoe design to new levels. In their interview, "Agnes Bethel: The Shoes That Create Experiences," this power couple talks about what makes their company a standout.
". . . one day I accompanied my wife as she went shoe shopping. She asked to see a pair by a designer (I will not name) and tried them on. She didn't love them, but she did like them enough to consider the purchase. I, however, disagreed with her choice. I then bet her that I (a man who had never designed shoes) could do a better job; the stipulation was that if I did design a better pair, I would have to have them made for her. After that, all I did was design." –Designer Justice Bessent, Agnes Bethel
