I’m a plus-size cowgirl – people think I’d dress like an old woman but I ‘own the runway’ in stylish, sexy rodeo clothes
FASHION retailers often have outdated, backwards ideas about what styles their plus-size customers actually want to wear.
One cowgirl pushed back against the dull options she faced in the western wear industry, and her followers couldn’t get enough.

The fashion-forward cowgirl Leticia, better known to her 72k followers as Letty, posts all sorts of country content on her TikTok.
She got brutally honest in a recent video about the fashion world’s frustrating expectations for her.
In the clip, Letty shared a series of photos from influencers and brands. She said the lookbook represented “how the plus-size cowgirl industry wants us to dress.”
Each of the photos featured a plus-size woman wearing a combination of baggy tops, straight-leg jeans, and muted denim tones.
Then, the clip cut to a rapid-fire series of Letty’s selfies and posed photos. She titled this chapter, “How I walk the runway.”
In some photos, Letty paired a sleeveless blazer dress with brown leather boots and a matching belt.
Other outfits included a fringe jacket and corset top, a belted tank dress, and striped, tiered pants in a gorgeous rainbow of colors.
Several women were quick to thank Letty for calling out the fashion industry, and lamented the limited options available to them.
“Why do we have to suffer and dress like old ladies because we are plus size?” one woman asked. “Love the outfits!”
Another woman said “every boutique in [her town” carried outfits like the dull T-shirt and duster combo Letty used as an unfashionable example.
“Noooo…just noooo,” the commenter wrote.
Several women begged for recommendations on where to shop for outfits and accessories like Letty’s.

“The way you dress is my goals,” one viewer admitted.
Another person gently corrected Letty and the claim she made in the video’s caption.
“You don’t walk the runway,” they said. “You own the runway.”
While most of the comments Letty received were from her fellow fashionistas, she caught the attention of some potential suitors, too.
One man said that, if he were there, he would dust off his jacket and get down on one knee.
“Ma’am, would ya marry me?” the country gentleman asked her. Letty didn’t respond, but that’s okay – real cowboys know it’s a lonesome lifestyle.
