DeVoe Magazine

February 12, 2015


10841810_757469654323068_6695864650459171935_oWhen Gwen DeVoe made the announcement that Full Figured Fashion Week would be returning, she made a promise that she continues to keep.  Gwen promised that the event was getting some major upgrades and changes, which is all that continues to unfold as the event draws closer.  New Sponsors, New partners, and more events have all been music to the ears of me and so many others that love this event.  However, last week she made an announcement that I didn’t see coming.  That announcement was the introduction of DeVoe Magazine.

DeVoe Magazine is a International bi-annual publication and is Full Figured Fashion Week‘s Official Magazine. The publication was conceived and given birth to by two amazing women with the knowledge and experience needed to assure that DeVoe Magazine is just as successful and empowering as Full Figured Fashion Week. The women I am referring to are none other than Evie Foster, the Editor, and Gwendolyn DeVoe, the co-founder and namesake of DeVoe Magazine.

Evie Foster is from Australia and is a former ‘plus’ model and designer. She showcased her brand ‘Evie Foster’ at FFFWeek in 2012 to rave reviews.  However, due to personal circumstances the label was put on hold for a time, now her fate has lead her to DeVoe Magazine.  With everything she does, Evie always keeps her favorite quote in her mind – “Simplicity is the Ultimate Form of Sophistication” by Leonardo da Vinci.

 As the Creator and Editor of DeVoe Magazine, Evie’s will bring diversity, style and class to the magazine.

 Gwen affectionately known as the Mogul Diva is recognized globally as the Queen Muva of the plus size fashion community.  She is the creator of Full Figured Fashion Week an event that is seen as the Oscars of plus size fashion events.  Gwen, a businesswoman who is the personification of strength, beauty and class.

As curvy women around the world prepare for this years Full Figured Fashion Week, the announcement of DeVoe Magazine is even more to get excited about. More than that, it is so inspiring and refreshing to see two powerful woman join forces for the greater good of other women. The founder’s want to bring a beautiful high end publication to the audience of Full Figured Fashion Week, around the Globe.

DeVoe will be a resource for all the best retailers, designers and fashion advice. DeVoe is strong, beautiful, stylish, confident, sexy,  unique and inspirational. Evie Foster and Gwen DeVoe

Life requires style! ✨ This is not a post abou Life requires style!

This is not a post about fashion. This is a friendly reminder that the way you style your life determines how successful you are and the influence you offer the world. How you style your life connects you to your purpose and living your purpose draws you closer to God. Your style can’t be mimicked or  matched; it is a muscle only you can flex. 
🗣POP STYLE SIS!!

This is God’s doing! I still remember vividly th This is God’s doing! I still remember vividly the way I felt when I found out I was pregnant with my son. I remember the day I planned to abort him. I damn near remember every moment that I have shared with him over the last 23 years and every moment I had with God on his behalf. As we prepare for yet another amazing moment, I am grateful. 

Grateful that God loved me enough to bless me with this joyful black boy. Grateful that he was patient as I grew from girl to woman while being his mother. Grateful that he inspired me to push past every roadblock placed in my path. 

@youknowitszaydoe, I am so proud of you and I love you far beyond any words, actions, or material items, black man. I once called you sun because you shined like one but truthfully you out shine the sun, son. i pray that you receive and cherish every good and perfect thing God has for you. I pray you continue to pursue your purpose with passion. Most of all I pray that and abundance of love and light surround you and that despite life challenges you never cower in the face of adversity.
