Here are some of the most famous models who’ve made it in the plus sized industry – some of which have featured on shows such as America’s Next Top Model.

    @Eva – sorry photo mix up, I’ve changed it to Johanna Dray. Thanks for questioning my professionalism – you must have read all my posts and counted the mistakes I’ve made in order to make that damning assumption.

    Barbara Brickner is one of the most famous plus-sized models of all time – she even had her own clothing line which was sold in US department stores for plus-sized pregnant mothers.

    I love them all!!! They are stunning examples of just how beautiful women can be, regardless of their size. But, that picture of Emme looks a little rough :)
