Team Curvy
Prior to the launch of ‘Miss Plus World Kenya’, Neomi had started a movement for Team Curvy in Kenyan to celebrate curves in all their glory. She also launched Style by Neomi a fashion line that caters to the plus size women who want stylish clothes but can’t find them in their size or can't find a good fit.

“I have a clothing line called ‘Style by Neomi’. I started a movement for curvy women (Team Curvy) and people would ask where I get my clothes, where I shop and how I manage to dress sexy. That’s where the interest stemmed from. Before that, it was a hustle for me to get clothes that fit, a lot of plus size sections couldn’t match my styles and any stores that carried plus sizes were maternity wear. If I ordered online some stuff wouldn’t fit the way I wanted. So I saw the gap in the market and thought, why not be the one to fill it?” she told The Nation.
