THICKCON to Honor Gwen DeVoe and Nzinga Imani at Atlanta Event
(Aug. 4, 2026) — THICKCON, an annual event celebrating full-figured women through fashion, empowerment and community, will return to Atlanta on Oct. 17, 2026.
The event will honor Gwen DeVoe, founder of Full Figured Fashion Week, and actress, entrepreneur and model Nzinga Imani for their contributions to representation, leadership and women’s empowerment.
THICKCON will feature fashion presentations, panel discussions, networking opportunities, vendors and programming focused on confidence, entrepreneurship and community.
“THICKCON is more than an event—it’s a movement,” said Kimberly Beasley, founder of THICKCON. “We’re creating a space where women can show up fully as themselves and celebrate who they are while building meaningful connections.”
DeVoe founded Full Figured Fashion Week and has spent more than two decades creating opportunities for plus-size designers, models and fashion professionals.
“I am honored and excited to join this year’s THICKCON as a VIP guest this October,” Imani said. “There’s nothing I love more than being in a room full of people who are choosing themselves, taking up space and rewriting the narrative around confidence, beauty and belonging.
“I can’t wait to share my journey and celebrate what happens when we stop shrinking and start showing up as our full selves. See you in October.
“Your power begins where your permission-seeking ends. Be fully, fearlessly, unapologetically you.”
Organizers expect attendees from across the Southeast for a full day of programming centered on fashion, wellness, entrepreneurship and community.
