welcome
we are large, people - style consulting based in Seattle, Washington
Welcome to "we are large, people"! I'm Rebecca Brown, and I'm so glad you stopped by!
Fashion is one way to express esteem for yourself and to feel the beauty that you already possess. I don't believe in fashion "rules" and "do's and don'ts", but rather want to work with you to find your own personal style that makes you feel like a million bucks every single day.
I want to create a safe space where you can explore new looks in a supportive and caring environment. I especially enjoy working with women that are plus-sized, as well as women with special concerns or style needs (allergies/sensitive skin, nursing mothers, etc.).
I don't work on commission, so we can shop at Old Navy or Nordstrom's - wherever the best pieces are for your style and budget - it makes no difference to me!
I am local to the Puget Sound/Seattle area and would love to work with you in person - but I also have packages that are online-only, so we can still work together no matter where you are!
Why don't you contact me and we can get started?
story
I'm Rebecca Brown, and I started "we are large, people" in 2010 to help me mix my love of fashion with my passion for helping women see their true self worth. My personal mission is to stamp out low self esteem and false limitations, and to help women see themselves as truly beautiful, not just inside, but outside too!
I chose the name "we are large, people" to convey the idea that women are powerful and that we have a voice and a presence that is important. Also, it's a nod to my own plus-sized, fashionable self.
I am local to the Seattle/Puget Sound area and would love to work with you in person if you are close, or virtually no matter where you live!

services
Do you look in your closet and think, “How can I have so many clothes but nothing to wear?” Do you keep going back to the same outfits? Do you have clothes hanging in the back of the closet, tags still attached? Do you shop and shop, but never feel "put together" with the outfits you choose? Or do you hate shopping and want to get it over with as quickly as possible?
I can help sift through your current lineup, and tell you what works, what needs to go, and what you’re missing. We can go shopping together with an eye toward pieces that make you look and feel great, fill in the gaps, and stretch your wardrobe well into the next season. A closet full of nothing to wear? Never again.
Take a look at my services and packages below and contact me if you'd like to work together!
Emergency Outfit Assistance
Do you have a hot date, a charity dinner, an important interview, a vacation, or another special event, but you have no idea where to shop or what to wear? I can help you with emergency outfit assistance! Just drop me an email and I can put together 3-5 looks for you, complete with shoes and accessories. Then you can choose the outfit that's best for you! I can also help find a single piece, such as a pair of knee-high boots that will fit a wide calf, etc. I love a challenge, and I love to help!
Emergency Outfit Assistance is conducted via email only - no in-person meeting is needed, so it can work for anyone, anywhere! Prices start at $60 for 3-5 looks or a 7-10 item "special challenge".

Online Shopping Bonanza
Do you find it hard to find clothing that fits you or your personality at the mall? Shopping online can be the key to finding great clothing, great bargains, and unique pieces. It can also be very overwhelming! Let me work with you to find the best online shops for your style and wardrobe needs, and put together key pieces and/or whole outfits. I can even do your shopping for you and have it delivered to your door! Prices are by the hour, starting at $60.

Initial Style Consultation
During the Initial Style Consultation, we create a custom plan to help you look and feel your best. We discuss what works about your current wardrobe, areas for improvement, and what you want to accomplish in terms of updating your style. We will also assess what you already own and select pieces to use as the foundation for your future wardrobe. The Initial Style Consultation sets a path forward for your new look while capitalizing on your style strong points. This service typically runs for 1.5 hours and pricing starts at $100.
If you'd like to get started, please contact me.
Personal Style Package
My most popular package! We’ll help find the basics to get your new wardrobe started, or to add spice to an existing wardrobe. This package includes an initial style consultation, pre-shopping services, and a one-on-one shopping experience. We'll work together to find the brands, designers, styles and colors that work best for you and your lifestyle.
Ideal for those looking to re-invent or refresh their look. It’s also a thoughtful gift for that special person in your life.
Plan for 4 hours to complete the Personal Style Package. Pricing starts at $400 but may vary based on location. Extra hours are $60 each.

Shop Your Closet
Organizing and making sense of what is already in your closet can feel like a lost cause. Do you have all the puzzle pieces, but need help fitting them together? Let me help you integrate your new style choices with your existing wardrobe by making complete outfits. During this session, we will lay out all of your pieces in easy and exciting new ensembles.
A "Shop Your Closet" session is a typical follow-up to the "Personal Style Package", and runs for 2 hours. Pricing starts at $150 but may vary based on location. Extra hours are $60 each.
Contact me to book a time to get started!
Closet Clean Out
You don’t need more clothes, just the right ones. This session is a more in-depth look at your closet than the "Shop Your Closet" package. During a closet organization session, we will review every item in your wardrobe and assess how they fit into with your updated style. With the Closet Clean Out, we help to ensure you have a closet full of wearable pieces, organized for easy use. Yes, your closet can be a source of inspiration rather than frustration!
"Closet Clean Out" sessions can vary based on wardrobe size. Pricing runs by the hour, starting at $150 for 2 hours, but may vary by location. Extra hours are $60 each.
