10 More Totally Gorgeous Plus-Size Models

By Brainberries

The world has truly become a wonderful place if a model can weigh more than two carrots and a tomato and not be called fat. While there’s still a whole lot of carrots-and-tomatoes models out there, we’ve also seen an influx of “plus size” models. Because even though we accept them, we still want to point out they have more meat on their bones. Emancipation is a long, hard struggle.

It makes modeling a more realistic thing where you can actually imagine someone having a body like the model that’s showing off that piece of clothing.
Let’s take a look at these totally gorgeous plus size models.
