The girls unashamedly flaunted full thighs, stomach rolls and love handles (things that would normally be airbrushed out on a high fashion magazine) whilst wearing everything from figure-hugging Agent Provocateur bodysuits to cut-out Gucci swimsuits.
In April 2010 issue of French Elle featured Tara Lynn on the cover and in a twenty-page-long editorial, for the magazine's first celebration of women who are 'ronde'.

Ashley Graham Plus Size Model
Ashley Graham is best known as a lingerie model for the plus size clothing store Lane Bryant. She has also appeared in fashion magazines such as Vogue and Latina.
Ashley has been working as a top plus-size model since she was discovered at age 12 and signed to Ford Models at 15.
Ashley notoriously posed nude with six fellow plus-size models (including Crystal Renn and Kate Dillon) in a Glamour magazine photo that sent the fashion world in a tizzy over the scandalous sight of "naked fat ladies".
In 2010 she appeared on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno to address the controversy over an edited commercial which was banned as being too hot for American TV as Ashley was apparantly 'flashing too much flesh'.
Network execs decided the commercial was too hot for TV saying busty Ashley Graham, reveals too much cleavage.
At a UK size 16 and measureing 36-34-47 Ashley Graham is proof once again that we should all celebrate our curves as big really can be beautiful.

Plus Size Celebrity Spotlight - Mo'Nique
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhL3vRgcScy8DRzuOIK2mXs276wL1sj6AMjF64gKx6jn8UZfznoXFNIkvaP08dsztwXu8bxG069vsl5qdCbnjiDK3RiSctV9hFSf6WVFw_pG2SE_DrJrfkAoTBHZwNXdhunbX311bg-mAzY/s1600/monique.jpg)
She rose to fame playing the role of Nicole "Nikki" Parker on the television series The Parkers whilst making a name for herself as a stand up comedienne.
She has appeared in a whole host of movies including Phat Girlz, Beerfest, Steppin: The Movie, Welcome Home Roscoe Jenkins and Precious for which she won an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress
Her more recent TV appeareances include a guest-starring role in Ugly Betty as L'Amanda, Mode's weekend security guard.
Mo'Nique is author of the best-selling book Skinny Women Are Evil: Notes of a Big Girl in a Small-Minded World. She also released a 2006 cookbook called Skinny Cooks Can't Be Trusted.
Mo'Nique is currently the host and executive producer of Mo'Nique's Fat Chance, a beauty pageant for plus-sized women aswell as having her own late night talk show The Mo'Nique Show.
A quote from Mo'Nique on being plus size; "Here’s what cracks me up. If Tyra Banks, who I dig and I think is incredible, spoke of her beauty nobody would question it, but when I speak of my beauty it’s up for debate because America has said looking a certain way is a bad thing. Listen here, I dig Mo’Nique. I dig Mo’Nique’s double belly, her thighs that rub together, her arms that slap in the wind and her double chin. "

Super size star Velvet D'Amour
Velvet D'Amour is primarily a fashion photographer but she is most well known for her appearance as a plus-size model in Jean-Paul Gaultier and John Galliano spring collections in 2006 where she walked the runway weighing approximately 21 stone in a size 28.
In response to the skinny model debate, Velvet says;
"The general reason one gets as to why there is not more representation of curvier folks within modern media is that inclusion would be equivalent to acceptance, and acceptance would then equal condoning, which would mean they support alleged ill health.
The odd dichotomy is that whilst people like myself are banned due to the purported notion we will somehow 'promote' being unhealthy, we are besieged with media saturated with imagery of Britney Spears, Nicole Richie, Paris Hilton, Kate Moss and Lindsay Lohan. How these women represent good health is somewhat beyond me."
Velvet also appeared in the title role of Avida, the 2006 French film and was a judge in the Paris edition of Mo'nique's hit reality show Fat Chance, the first beauty pageant for plus sized women.
Velvet is currently appearing in La Ferme Célébrités en Afrique - a French reality TV show similar to I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here.

Seventies Boho Style for Plus Size Figures
Bohemian Style & Hippie Chic Fashion for Plus Sized Fashionistas.
Ideas to add a vintage vibe to your wardrobe with plus size seventies boho chic.
Tunics and peasant tops with embroidery or pretty embellishments like sequins or rhinestones. Team them with dark denim flares or a denim maxi skirt.
Long, flowing skirts, headbands,fringing, lace, embroidery and printed flowing maxi dresses teamed with a wide leather belt also characterise the bohemian style. Go for light colours and floral patterns.
Accessories are key when it comes to creating a seventies look. Wear lots of bold statement jewellery; rings with large stones, wide bangles, long pendant necklaces
or strings of chunky beads.
A leather satchel or fringed over the body bag work well and the right scarf can finish off the boho look perfectly. Choose pashminas or wispy silk scarves in paisley and solid colours.
For more inspiration check out Dorothy Perkins 70's Spirit Range and Yours Clothing Boho Range.
Here are just a few of my favourite plus size boho style items available online.

Get The Look - Adeles Paisley Print Dress
Not only does she have an amazing voice, but Adele is a perfectly styled plus size celebrity.
I loved the 70's Boho paisley print dress she was wearing when she appeared on ITV's This Morning recently.
After a long hunt around I found out her gorgeous outfit was from Thakoons ready to wear collection and cost in the region of £450.
I love the dress but not the price tag, so have hunted around further to find similar paisley dresses to get Adeles seventies boho look on a smaller budget.
Team with leggings or tights for a stylish on trend look
