Dascha Polanco Speaks Out About Sizeism in Hollywood

Dascha Polanco is fashion fiend, a breakout TV star, and a social media maven — so why won’t designers dress the curvy celeb for the red carpet? According to Vogue, despite the fact that the actress and style maven stars on a hit TV series and has 1.9 million followers on Instagram — where she’s often seen trading her on-screen scrubs for bold, fashion-forward ensembles — she can’t seem to get high-end fashion labels to dress her for premieres or red carpet events. “I understand that it’s business, but still, it’s like, really?,” Polanco tells the publication.
