A SLIM thicc fashionista has been left stunned after trying a viral leather dress – because a size 10 fitted her curvy hips.<\/p>\n
Carla Kent, 27, is a self-professed\u00a0Primark\u00a0addict and regularly delights her 37,000 TikTok followers (@carlakentx) with shopping hauls.<\/p>\n

After a recent trip to her favourite shop, the makeup artist, from\u00a0Glasgow, said: "Do you see how many bags are down there [on the floor]?<\/p>\n
"We've got a real problem. I've got four of the normal bags and one of the big daddy bags that they give you when you've clearly got a shopping addiction.<\/p>\n
"Yeah, I went to Primark. This was my big autumn winter shop, so this explains the five bags."<\/p>\n
Despite her love for the bargain store, Carla can sometimes struggle to find clothes to suit her flawless hourglass shape – even having to buy jeans in a size 16 for her hips, and getting the waist taken in. <\/p>\n
But she was over the moon after finding a sold-out dress in store which fit despite not being in her size.<\/p>\n
She said: "Guys, wait for this. I'm so excited for this. I got the viral black leather bandeau dress.<\/p>\n
"Like, hello, look how stunning is that?<\/p>\n
"And I mean, I'm shook. Size 10. I ain't a size 10 but the size 10 fits me because it's very stretchy and for some reason it does go over the hips.<\/p>\n
