Plus-sized fashionista shares how she found her dream date night dress, "I look like a big pickle but I love it" #FridayFeeling #GirlTalkZA

A plus-sized fashionista has revealed she's found the perfect dress for date nights - even if it makes her look like a giant pickle.

Rachel Spicer, from Falkirk, regularly shares her shopping hauls and outfit picks with her 2.3 million followers on TikTok (@rachelspicer_).


In a recent clip, the 25-year-old bagged a ruffled maxi dress from Boohoo for a holiday to Egypt.

Rachel, a size 18, said finding holiday clothes that actually fit can be difficult, but is hoping to find the perfect wardrobe for her sunshine break.

She said: "I've gained a little bit of weight recently, and I'm not good on holiday feeling like a stuffed sausage."

And trying on her new olive coloured frock she joked: "I do feel like a big pickle, but I love it.

"This is gonna be like a night time outfit. I can't wait for a holiday date night. I just need a nipple cover and we're good to go."

She added: "I feel like I'm gonna be so elegant this holiday. Wow. I'm growing up so fast.

"There is a little slit here. It's a classy slit. Like a little peek, but not showing the whole thing, you know? I like it.

"Oh, my God. I feel like a slinky.

"I like the ruffles. I'm keeping it."

And fashion fans on social media are also loving it, with Rachel's clip racking up 33,000 views.
