Founder Blogger
Gabi Fresh

Gabi Gregg is the LA-based brand consultant and blogger who started her site, GabiFresh.com in 2008 after noticing the lack of fashion resources for plus size young women. One of the first blogs of its kind, GabiFresh mixes style advice, outfits, and body positivity while rejecting outdated fashion rules and the concept of dressing for your body type.
In 2010, her supporters voted for her to become MTV's first TJ (Twitter Jockey), and after spending a year with the company (and co-hosting the VMA pre-show!), she decided to pursue fashion full time. She has contributed to Vogue.it, Refinery29, xoJane, and Rookie Mag, and was the first plus size contributing editor at InStyle Magazine in 2012.

In the summer of 2013, Gabi designed a capsule swimwear collection for online retailer Swimsuits For All. The fan-favorite bikini sold out in less than 48 hours, and the popularity of her "fatkinis" made international headline news. She created another bikini for the retailer this past summer, and then signed on to design capsule collections with them for the next 3 years. Her latest collection is out now!
