Romance in Style

Unlike the one poor review that has been written thus far, I give high praises to this film. Here is a beautiful story of how the fashion world should be ... and is slowly becoming. As we all know, these major changes do not occur overnight.

This is a great reflection of those who are instrumental in making these changes evolve in reality.

Yes, there is a romantic relationship evolving with Ella and Derek It is great that it is not the over the top style that too many Hallmarks are!

It is more realistic with how quality relationships evolve.

... A small take on the Cinderella story ... her name is Ella after all! :)

Jaicy (Ella) played this role very well ... Confident, but not over confident ... after all she is standing up to the prejudices that exist in the fashion industry. What does one expect? Size 16 is not that much bigger than 14!

And I can vouch that the sizes in numbers appear to have come down to be smaller than they were years ago! So, 16 is most likely the 14 of years ago! Great to see skill admired and rewarded.

Great to see a sound character at the helm of this fashion company, Benjamin (Derek) to assist with these changes. A comment was made by a reviewer of her dislike of Ben in the Virgin River series. In that series he was becoming a good person as he learned from his mistakes. He plays the role in this film very well and believable! Here he is a good person from the start.

Hurray to such a relationship starting, with both of them spearheading the progressive and quality future changes in the fashion industry! Perhaps a sequel? This warrants one much better than some others that Hallmark has done ... and ensure the quality remains the same in the sequel!

Enjoy everyone!

This was wonderful, ground-breaking, important, needed... and both thrilling and difficult for me to watch, personally.

It could've gone so wrong... and mostly I wish there was either some kind of redemption or kock-back to the antagonists that made everything so difficult along the whole way. That bit stayed dangling for me, then again that is fairy realistic.

The chemistry between the leads, the sass and truth sprouted by the heroine, the history she shared, and the sheer audacity some have trying to quash any sort of true representation in fashion.., it was all very relatable.

Great story. Actors are so natural. Such a honest story. Most of the cast is well cast. Great chemistry between the two leads. The writing and direction is great.

Nice seeing a different look from the typical actors,especially female lead wise however.. Hallmark has ways of turning things into clichéd or in your face messages(like drilling in a viewers head,this movie was about body positivity)instead of simply a plus-sized person in fashion versus otherwise dealing with everything along the way.

Which begs the question would Hallmark act like this,with a thin person?.. Give a plus-sized person another lead role,without only using them for their stereotype.. So feel a bit mixed,on their intentions currently.

Enjoyed the overall casting,cinematography,outfits & is worth seeing if you haven't.

Juicy Elliot proves she is more than just the supporting character she plays on Grey's Anatomy. A sweet story that focuses more on the body positivity side than it does the romance. It's a sweet and refreshing modern take on Cinderella and honestly, it took me a while to catch on to that. The ending wrapped up a tad confusing but overall this is worth the watch.
