Content creator Kristina Zias is a size XL/XXL, and she's on a mission to find clothes that are the right fit for her. To help other women navigate the complex maze of apparel sizing, Kristina also shows off how she looks in the pieces she buys. This often comes in the form of comparing the outfit with her friends who have different body types.

Together, they shop at Zara, Aritzia, and other popular places, and the contrast of the finished look, even though they're supposed to give off the same vibe, often shows that the same clothing can appear differently on various body types.

Every now and then, Kristina receives a mean comment, but she doesn't let the nasty words get to her. "The only way you can become more confident is by embracing your insecurities," Kristina says in one of her TikToks. "For me, I've always been so insecure about my stomach. And then I realized, 'Guess what? I can show up in a low-rise bikini, let my belly hang out, show my stretch marks, and the world is not going to end.’ And if anyone has a problem with my stomach, well f**k them. That says a lot more about them than me."

Most of the reactions to her videos, however, are positive, with many thanking Kristina for representing them and speaking up about the struggles of clothes shopping.

I love this! Dresses never fit right if you're larger on top, so this is a great solution.

    this has nothing to do with “who looks better”, it has to do with breaking stereotypes and sharing struggles that many women face with clothes. idk why you’re putting them against eachother.

    I am closer to the XL myself but I have to say that I prefer the way the fabric of the pants flows down the XS woman's body. I just find it more pleasing to the eye.

    No she isn't. Have you actually looked at these pictures? In most of them (check the photo where she can't zip the pants up), she looks like she has nothing on underneath. BBWs don't have to crush the life out of themselves with spandex to look great.

    Seriously, women's clothing companies need to get it together with their sizing. I have multiple pairs of size 4 jeans and some of them are too small, others fit just right (my weight fluctuates very easily, that's why I still have all those jeans). WTF??
