Keep reading to see these two ladies show off the way they rock clothes.
Super Spotty
This body-con skirt and tank combo looks great on both Denise and Maria. The tight-fitting nature of these clothes really shows off Denise's curves. We love the earrings Maria chose to wear with this look.
White On White
This cream-colored set is perfect for summertime. Denise is wearing the top as an off the shoulder shirt, while it fits like more of a boatneck on Maria. It's amazing how versatile these outfits are!
Ready For Summer Fun
These ladies look like they're about to head to the beach to enjoy a warm summer day. The tie-dye beach coverup that they're wearing ads the perfect amount of detail to this cute white bikini.
Casual Chic
This is the perfect outfit for hanging out around the house or going for a casual walk around your city. The white top fits more snugly on Denise. Maria chose a large size for a more boho look.
As Girly As Ever
This is a super high fem look. It doesn't get much more girly or soft than this. Both girls have chosen to pair this outfit with some big hoop earrings.
Halt For A Halter
This knitted teal halter top is everything. It looks so good with those denim short shorts. This definitely looks like an outfit that you could dance in. It's gorgeous on both of them.
Dress It Up Or Dress It Down
This coral body con dress is perfect for a night out, but if you're looking for some daywear, just pop a jean jacket on top of it. You can dress it up or dress it down.
Terrific Tan
This tan-colored body con dress looks amazing on both Denise and Maria. It somehow compliments both of their skin tones. And we love Denise's facial expression in this video still.
Going On A Safari
These girls look like they're about to go on a safari in these khaki drawstring trousers and this button-down forest green crop top. They look like they're ready for an adventure.
Sheer And Spotty
Some people think that plus-size girls can't wear sheer clothing. Denise is here to prove all those haters wrong. This sheer spotty top looks amazing on both her and Maria.
Kicking It Up A Notch
Denise and Maria showed the world that they could rock a sheer spotty top, so they decided to add another element to their look and try out a sheer spotty crop top.
Beautiful Bathing Suits
Who says that plus-size girls can't wear bikinis? Maria and Denise both look stunning in this brick red two-piece bathing suit. They're also both wearing gorgeous khaki sun hats.
Keep It Simple
This outfit doesn't have any bells or whistles. It's just a pair of blue jeans and a white Calvin Klein sports bra. These high rise jeans look so good on both girls.
A Girly Dress
This lavender frilly short dress has a real element of playfulness to it. It's so flirty and fun! It fits differently on these two different bodies, but it suits both of them so well.
A Bold Color Choice
Some outdated fashion magazines say that plus-size women should stick to wearing "slimming" colors such as black and navy. Girl, rock whatever color you want. If Denise can do it, so can you.
Skin Tight
This dress might be long-sleeved, but it's still super sexy. This body con dress looks so good on both these women. Denise is really showing off her curves, and Maria looks super sleek.
Off The Shoulder
Who doesn't love an off the shoulder look? This neckline is a great way to show some skin while still remaining respectable. This dress is so cute! We love those slouchy sleeves.
Remember Shrugs?
Remember back in 2002 when everyone would wear shrugs like these? Only we would wear shrugs over some kind of undershirt, which wasn't nearly as cute. These two look great.
The Belle Of The Ball
These two look like they belong in Beauty and the Beast in these gorgeous golden dresses. The combination of the off the shoulder neckline and flutter sleeves looks so good with his silhouette.
A Monochromatic Look
Check out this monochromatic athleisure look that suits both Denise and Maria so well. They both look like they could jump on a stationary bike and take on a spin class at any moment.
A Floral Two-Piece
This gorgeous purple two-piece outfit would be perfect for a summer day at the beach. If you live in a warm climate, an outfit like this can really help you keep cool.
Take A Walk On The Wild Side
There's something about an animal print that is just so sexy on everybody. Maybe it's the suggestion of acting wild. Both women look so good in this suit. The high waisted bottoms are everything.
More Animal Print
This animal print dress is a bit more subtle than the leopard print bikini, but it's just as gorgeous and impactful. These two both look like they could swing from vines with Tarzan.
Tie It Up
You can give a plain white T-shirt some new life by just tying it up under your chest. What is it about a white T-shirt and a pair of blue jeans that's just so classic?
Spots And Strings
Which animal print do you like better? This strappy one, or the high waisted one from a few photos back? The black bathing suit wrap adds some extra interest and texture.
Black And White
This long-sleeved black crop top looks so good on both women, and it pairs so nicely with this white polka-dotted pencil skirt. This look is the perfect combination of elegant and feminine.
Another Black Crop Top
We've seen these women in jeans and a crop top before, but we haven't seen them in this black V-neck crop top before. It looks just as good on them as all those other crop tops.
Cinderella Chic
We already know that Denise and Maria look great in off the shoulder necklines, but we haven't seen them in a sparkly baby blue dress before. They look like twin Cinderellas.
Gabriella From High School Musical Vibes
Doesn't this look like something Gabriella from High School Musical would wear? We're half expecting these two to break out into song at any moment. Is this the start of something new?
Bare It All
These two are clearly super confident, and they have no problem showing off their bikini bodies to the world. Keep doing you, ladies! You're giving us so many outfit ideas!
