Oscar-winning actress Da’Vine Joy Randolph is stepping into a new role, and this one is off-screen. FullBeauty Brands has named the The Holdovers star as the face and brand ambassador of the relaunched 11 Honoré, a luxury fashion label made exclusively for plus-size women.
Backed by FullBeauty and operating under the Eloquii brand umbrella, 11 Honoré has been reimagined as a luxury house built specifically for sizes 10–28.
Originally founded by Patrick Herning in 2017, the brand quickly became a go-to destination for plus-size women seeking parity in luxury fashion, before being sold to Dia & Co. in 2022.
The relaunch arrives with purpose. Creative director Yesenia Torres designed the 15-piece capsule collection with sculptural silhouettes, fluid draping, and architectural construction; think silk, chiffon, and ostrich feather trim at prices between $229 and $799.
Randolph, who serves as both model and ambassador, said she was drawn to the brand’s core belief that luxury should never be conditional. It’s a message that aligns well with who she is.
The Philadelphia-born actress made history with her Academy Award win for The Holdovers and was named one of Time‘s 100 most influential people in the world in 2024.
Brand lead Julie Carnevale, a co-founder of Eloquii, sees this as a rallying moment for the industry. She hopes the relaunch will inspire designers to re-enter the extended sizing space, noting that many have pulled back due to the costs of fitting plus-size ranges profitably.
This partnership also pairs well with other high-profile celebrity fashion collabs making headlines in 2026. Lily Collins became the face of a major hair care brand and Dakota Johnson fronted Calvin Klein’s latest campaign, showing that fashion brands are doubling down on bold, values-driven celebrity partnerships.
Takeaways
This isn’t just a fashion campaign, it’s a statement. At a time when the luxury industry has largely walked back its commitment to extended sizing, FullBeauty Brands is doing the opposite, and doing it loudly.
Naming an Academy Award winner as your brand face, not just a plus-size influencer, but a globally recognized, critically acclaimed actress, tells the world exactly who this customer is: discerning, powerful, and long overdue for this level of attention.
Da’Vine Joy Randolph isn’t just checking a diversity box here. Her personal values, her public image, and her own fashion journey on the red carpet make her an authentic fit.
And with the collection landing on Nordstrom.com, 11 Honoré gains mainstream retail credibility that the plus-size luxury space has rarely enjoyed.
The fashion industry is watching. And if this sells, it likely will, expect more brands to reconsider their decision to abandon extended sizing.
Could Da’Vine Joy Randolph’s star power genuinely shift designer attitudes toward investing in plus-size luxury fashion? Is this a one-time capsule moment, or the beginning of a sustained luxury ecosystem for plus-size women?
