These 15 plus-sized models range in styles and looks, but they all have a few things in common. They’re incredibly fierce, they don’t shy away from their curvaceous figures, and they’re advocates for promoting a healthy range of body types in an industry that has been reserved for the slim and the slender. All body types are to be celebrated, including those with a little more bounce!
Not everyone feels confident with the size of their body, but that’s only because the media has created an idealistic image of what women should look like. It’s important to learn to love the skin that you’re in and to enjoy your body, regardless of your dress size. If your healthy body is on the lighter side, smile! Likewise, if your healthy body is more voluptuous, you have every right to smile just as big! Don’t shy away from showing your bust, hips and thighs because there is absolutely nothing wrong with the shape that you’re rocking. You might get to choose how you adorn your figure, and how you take care of your body (with nutrition and exercise), but you don’t dictate the body you received. Learn to love it just like these beautiful women do!

This bleach blonde English bombshell is a fierce looking femme. With her smoldering blue eyes, luscious lips and unapologetic attitude, it’s no wonder that Felicity Hayward is turning heads, and it’s not because of her stick thin figure. After her first published shoot in 2012, Felicity has been featured in magazines like Vogue and Glamour, and on runways, proudly rocking her full figure look. Felicity’s look is reminiscent of the dark-browed, red-lipped Marilyn Monroe and she exudes a take-no-prisoner attitude, like that of former No Doubt star Gwen Stefani. Her look is English edgy yet classy, which makes her incredibly versatile for photographing. Felicity looks equally at home in a dodgy street photo shoot, and standing beneath a chandelier in a floor length gown. Not only is this plus-sized model a photographer, but also the Curve Ambassador & Stylist for ASOS (one of the United Kingdom’s largest independent online fashion and beauty retailers).
