If you like rave culture, then you’ll want to check out these outfits iHeartRaves just put out in collaboration with Instagram influencer Clarissatalks.
Clarissatalks is a plus-size model from San Francisco California, with a large social media following. Her content mainly consists of her doing OOTDs, attending raves, and providing positive words of support for those having issues with their body image. For over a year now, Clarissa has been working with iHeartRaves, a clothing brand that specializes in attire for those wishing to dance the night away, to create a set of two outfits, named Altered State and Inner Aura.
Inner Aura is a sequin embroidered lilac set featuring a skirt and halter loop design top. The look has a pastel fairycore vibe with a rhinestone heart charm attached to the metal O-ring of the top matching the rhinestone hem of the skirt. This item also comes with an additional accessory, a choker with 5 identical rhinestone heart charms, matching the one located on the top for the full outfit.

The designer appeared in a sweatshirt design that read “How we love is who we are.”
Altered State takes on an edgier red and black cyber goth-inspired look: the full set consists of black sheer mesh sleeves, a red sheer mesh wide strap crop top, and red mesh high-waisted shorts and black trunks on the inner layer for modesty. This outfit is certainly on the risqué side, with a common accent design throughout the items being the black o-rings,making it a bolder look that’s perfect for gothic night clubs or dark electronica raves.
When designing the outfits, Clarissa wanted something that she felt good and confident in and to have body types like hers be heard and felt seen. Clarissa says of the collaboration: “I love existing in a space that welcomes everyone and accepts everyone and outfits clothing for raves should also speak to that as well”.
