'We will make the change we want to see,' said Anjali Anand when we quizzed her about the change she would like to see in the fashion industry. That’s exactly what, the actor and inclusive brand Beyond The Curve by VIRGIO’s co-creator is all about- positive change.
Anjali Anand is redefining what inclusivity looks like, both on-screen and in fashion. In this powerful conversation on Her Circle, she opens up about how not seeing anyone like her in the media pushed her to become that person- unapologetically, confidently, and on her own terms.
From breaking stereotypes in the entertainment industry to co-creating Beyond The Curve, Anand has been instrumental in bringing body inclusivity to the forefront. With Beyond The Curve by VIRGIO, a brand that stands for more than just size-inclusive fashion, it’s about accessibility, comfort, and confidence in every stitch. By creating stylish, sustainable, and well-fitted clothes for women who have long been left out of mainstream fashion, Anand is helping redefine beauty standards one outfit at a time.
As she says, ‘If I didn’t see someone in the media like me, I became someone in the media like me.’ And that spirit runs through everything she does, as an actor who challenges norms and who’s creating space for everyone to belong.
