Actress Zareen Khan said, "The Plus Size Fashion Show by aLL at Lakmé Fashion Week is an excellent initiative in bridging the gap between Fashion and Plus size consumers. aLL's motto of 'Fashion is for one and all' is something I believe in since at some stage I was also plus size and had no option but to dress in anything that fit and was available, not necessarily being what you want to wear. Having fought for body positivity all my life, I am very excited to be part of the jury. Looking forward to the line which will be showcased by the renowned designer, Narendra Kumar whose collection has always been a trademark in the fashion industry. Kudos to the team for changing the game in fashion and promoting body positivity.”

Hetal Kotak, CEO, aLL – The Plus Size Store said, “After getting an overwhelming response in the last two seasons at Lakme Fashion Week, we are quite excited to host the third season. To provide the latest in the world of fashion to our customers, we have collaborated with none other than Ace Designer Narendra Kumar.
