This year, the well-known sports magazine, famous for its numerous photos of slender and toned bodies, invites a model that does not fit into the standard canons of beauty to shoot in a swimsuit. When an issue with a buxom girl on the cover comes out, the American public reacts very violently to a very bold step taken by a publication that preaches a he althy lifestyle.

Victory Forms

A magazine with 20 million readers, which printed the most beautiful and fit bodies, for the first and only time recognized the attractiveness of a plus-size model. Maybe this is not the last victory of real women with forms over the anorexic fashion models that flooded the glamorous world? And the head of the American swimwear company noted that it was time to conquer the catwalk and glossy magazines for models with impressive shapes. And it is no coincidence that he invited the charming and self-confident Ashley Graham to advertise his products, believing that a stunning success awaits the outrageous cover.

Success

These fashion photos are a real breakthrough for a model who is famous for her parameters and has long struggled with low self-esteemoverweight women. Ashley Graham was born in 1988 in Nebraska and admitted that she was not thin even in childhood. At school, her peers teased her, but the girl tried not to pay attention to insults.

At the age of 16, she is noticed by a photographer who gave her a ticket to the world of gloss, where she breaks all the notions of ordinary people about the obligatory harmony of models. After moving to New York, Ashley Graham gains more than 10 kilograms. The model recalls how she hated her reflection in the mirror, calling herself ugly.

The power of affirmations

She suffered greatly from her complexes, experiencing every sideways glance and an unkind word addressed to her, until she realized that something needed to be changed in her life. One day, a girl finds information about the positive effect of constant positive statements addressed to her, because if you often repeat the same thing, then it will definitely come true.

The model did not immediately believe in the power of affirmations, but soon realized that they really help her radically reconsider her attitude towards herself. She repeats daily like a prayer that she loves her body.

Love yourself

Ashley Graham combines a successful career with speaking out to women in need to promote self-love. She believes that beauty is not only external data: everyone is obliged to love and accept themselves from the inside, but a person must make this decision on his own. “When I once again reproached myself for being overweight, I realized how wrong I was. Cause I'm alwaysI was brought up to be beautiful. Now I look in the mirror and see a magnificent figure. Ashley is often invited to speak at educational institutions where the main audience is notorious teenagers, and by her own example she helps them cope with problems and learn to accept themselves.

On her page on the social network for numerous readers, she constantly lays out positive formulas that must be repeated. When asked by journalists about how to give confidence to those who need it, the highly paid model answered that the main thing is not to be afraid of your forms. Eminent designers love the feminine Ashley Graham, whose dimensions are very far from the canonical 90-60-90. True, she does not advertise her weight with a height of 1.75 cm.

Model and designer

Graham has never been shy about showing off her sexy curves. After working with a lingerie company, a frank commercial comes out, which has collected a huge number of views and is soon banned from being shown on television. Two years ago, the famous model became interested in design and since then has been developing a line of underwear for girls with the same parameters as hers. Ashley Graham assures that appetizing forms look sexy, and the world has long been ready for plus size bikinis. Her debut seasonal collections are doing well, as stores don't have a large selection of beautiful lingerie that has the supportive properties that are important for curvy women.

Sexy is in the mind

To be honest, not all public comments are positiveemotions towards Ashley Graham. The top model receives a lot of messages that she thinks she is a goddess in vain, and she should not popularize being overweight, giving it a glamorous flair. Some accuse Graham of simply being lazy to lose weight and promoting unhe althy fatness.

A woman ignores such attacks, believing that only she has the right to evaluate herself. And speaking of he alth, she sincerely believes that extra pounds cannot become a significant hindrance to him. “You can wear sizes S or XXL - none of that matters if you get up off the couch and worry about your body. And you can always be he althy, and forms are not a hindrance to this. She also assures all her detractors that sexuality is in the mind, not in the figure.

Be that as it may, but the successful Graham destroys stereotypes that only skinny models look attractive. And many women really got rid of numerous complexes. Ashley even invited them to post imperfect photos on her page.
