As soon as they call us, in Russia, fat ladies: both plump and fat… But in the West, the concept of BBW has long existed. What is BBW? This abbreviation stands for Big Beauty Woman, which translates as "Big and Beautiful Woman".

This name appeared in 1979 in BBW Magazine, a large-shape magazine. This name was quickly picked up in the USA, which is known for its large number of obese people, and in the 90s it spread throughout the world.

Who is called Big Beauty Woman?

Big Beautiful Woman can be called a very large representative of the fair sex, whose weight will reach two hundred kilograms and more, and a lady who has only ten to twenty kilograms of excess weight. For especially large ones, by the way, there is a separate name - SS-BBW (Super-Size Big Beautiful Woman). Here we can already talk about weight, which can cause domestic and medical problems.

If we talk about the psychological aspects of the term BBW, then these women must have charisma, be charming, sexy, self-confident, and most importantly - love themselvesjust the way they are and enjoy life.

Russian beauties

If you ask in Russia what BBW is, they will not immediately answer you. The fact is that we associate this concept with the porn industry, and this abbreviation marks films in which there are full porn actresses.

However, not every fat woman can call herself that. The muses of the artists had wide hips, large breasts and a fairly thin waist. But everyone can be a big beautiful woman.

Full Fashion

This term is now often used by fashion designers who create clothes for the full - plus size. In the same 90s, when the standards for models reached incredible numbers (80-55-80), and girls began to die from anorexia, fashion designers brought models of non-standard shapes and sizes to the catwalks.

It was publicly stated that now there are no frames and standards. But is it? Some standards have been replaced by others. Have you seen plus size girls in magazine photos or runways who have small breasts or big belly? No, because the model should have lush breasts, an elastic buttocks and the absence of a voluminous belly. Opinions about such models are divided. Some are happy that big girls should no longer be ashamed of their excess weight, while others talk about promoting overweight and unhe althy eating.

Butas long as there are so many overweight people in the world, as long as the fashion industry develops a new direction, creating plus size clothes, models of non-standard sizes will gain popularity.
