The 10 Hottest Plus Size Fashion Models

Lizzie Miller

   In 2009, Lizzie Miller posed nude for Glamour and produced an editorial that had the entire women's fashion world abuzz. The untouched photos showed Lizzie posing for a story about feeling comfortable in your skin, and the responses to her normal looking belly flooded in to Glamour and started a miniature body image revolution that's going strong but still has a ways to go. Lizzie's found steady work since this now infamous photo that, according to Glamour, gave them pause at only using super skinny women.

 Kaela Humphries

 

 

Kris Humphries is already associated with a certain curvy woman, but Kaela Humphries now makes two. The sister to the NBA superstar recently signed with Ford Models, and has already landed a gig in the lookbook for eloquii. Apparently she was briefly on an episode of Keeping up with the Kardashians and Kim was too busy to chill with her or something, but what matters is this mixed-race beauty will now be in front of the cameras more than ever.

 Nadia Aboulhosn

 

 

Nadia Aboulhosn first came to prominence when she won American Apparel's XL Model Search in 2011. The half-Lebanese Florida native quickly proved that she's more than just a pretty face. Besides modeling, Nadia also maintains a widely-read blog that has been profiled on Lucky, The New York Times, and Refinery29.

 Fluvia Lacerda

 

 

She is known as the the “plus-size Gisele Bündchen" and not just because they share the same homeland. Fluvia Lacerda is the plus-size model who's set to bust out of her native Brazil and quickly take over the world. Already have been featured in Vogue Italia in July 2012 and the February 2012 issue of Bust we're excited for what 2013 has in store for Fluvia. And while the Gisele comparisons may be a great launching point, we don't think Tom Brady could handle this body.

 

Ashley Graham

 

 

Ashley Graham made headlines when a commercial she starred in was banned for showing too much skin. The Lane Bryant commercial was not allowed to air before 8pm, which of course made it only more tantalizing. Besides being too racy for the airwaves, Ashley has also been featured in Vogue and Glamour, and was the face of several Levi's campaigns.

 Candice Huffine

 

 

Along with Tara Lynn and Robyn Tawley, Candice Huffine was one of the three women featured on the June 2011 issue of Vogue Italia for their Curvy Issue. Besides Glamour's untouched photos of Lizzie Miller, this was probably the next biggest step in bringing plus sized models to the forefront of the industry. After this groundbreaking cover, Candice went on to model in W, V Magazine, and German Vogue, and also scored the cover of the Fall 2012 issue of i-D.

 

Anansa Sims

 

 

 Anansa Sims was born with all the right genetics in place: her mother, was a supermodel who was the first African-American model on the cover of American Vogue  in 1974. As one of the most successful plus sized models, Anansa walked the Lane Bryant show in 2011, was in the September 2011 issue of Glamour, and has been included in national campaigns for Vassarette, Kohl's, Kmart and Forever 21.

 

 Tara Lynn

 

 

As one of the gorgeous women in Vogue Italia's famous June 2011 plus size editorial spread, Tara Lynn is one of the premiere plus size models that's basking in the spotlight. The curvy brunette used to deal with body image issues when she was younger, but now she's laughing at all the skinny haters after appearing in an H&M 2012 campaign.

 

Marquita Pring

 

 

Marquita Pring was another one of the beautiful ladies featured on the famous cover of Vogue Italia in June 2011. She shocked the world when she revealed that she actually adds padding to increase her size. Well it's certainly working for her, since she was featured in a Levi's ad campaign in 2011 and walked the 2010 Jean Paul Gaultier runway show in Paris.

 

 Robyn Lawley

 

 

Robyn Lawley is the hottest plus size model out there, and arguably the most successful. She was one of the three models on the June 2011 issue of Vogue Italia, was the first plus size model to appear in a Ralph Lauren campaign in 2012, was featured on the May 2012 cover of France's Marie Claire, and was the first plus size model to appear in Vogue Australia. Which is a way of saying that the industry agrees with us on how bangin' she is.

10 Most Famous Fashion Designers Of All Time

20th century saw some serious improvement in terms of both men’s and women’s apparel. Spearheading this reform were a class of fashion icons whom we refer to as fashion designer artists. Most of the famous iconic fashion designers of the last century are known till at the present time for their ability to exhibit the beauty of a woman’s body by way of stylish, modernist, creative and elegant clothing. Below you will find a 10 list of all such iconic fashion designers, who have made women look stunning,beautiful, sensuous and gorgeous through their interesting and unique fashion designs.
Check out 10 Most Famous Fashion Designers Of All Time. This list is just for 10 of them and it is in random order. So don’t get mad because I didn’t include other famous designers like Karl Lagerfeld, Marc Jacobs, Dolce & Gabbana, Jacques Cartier, Louis Vuitton and many more…

 

10 – Yves Saint Laurent

 Yves Saint Laurent became popular in fashion circles due to his creativity in redesigning the clothes considered to be masculine into beautiful, feminine wardrobe for women. Perhaps, one of the most famous fashion designers in France, Yves was the first one to introduce power dressing for women in the form of “power suits” in the year 1966. He is also credited with designing the men’s smoking jacket. The most important fashion legacy which he has left behind is the “ready-to-wear” fashion clothing.

 

09 – Pierre Cardin

 The Italian-born Frenchman is lauded for his 20th century pieces that looked as though they were from the 25th century. As Cardin rose to fame in the age of the space race, his creations took on an air of futurism. His so-called bubble dresses had all the fixings of science fiction, combining earthly elegance with out-of-this-world colors and avant garde design. They may be wacky, sure, but Cardin’s clothes showed a freedom of expression that highlighted larger ideals, in particular the emancipation of women. The visionary designer fell out of critical favor when he attached his name to less fashionable items, from cars to umbrellas, but his futuristic, space-centric legacy will live to infinity and beyond.

 

08 – Tom Ford

 Tom Ford, counted among the most famous designers today, whose portfolio includes serving as a creative director for both Yves Saint Laurent and Gucci, wanted to be actor when he was growing up. He was born in Texas and even took training to be an actor. But fate had other “designs” for him. Tom ford popularity as a designer reached peaks when in the year 2000, he was declared the winner of the Best International Designer Award.

 

07 – Christian Dior

 Born in January of 1905, this French designer was best known for his distinctive “New Look” silhouette. First shown in 1947; his suits and dresses revolutionized the way women dressed after the Second World War. Today, talented designer John Galliano carries on the legendary designer’s legacy in Paris, where he creates dramatic couture ball gowns, chic prêt-a-porter, and luxurious accessories for Dior. Galliano’s talent and his over-the-top runway shows have ensured that the brand remains strong and viable in today’s world…

 

 06 – Ralph Lauren

 

 Ralph Lauren is worth $7.5 billion, and he got it all because of his fashion sense. In 1970, the first Polo logo was seen in Lauren’s line of women’s suits that was designed in the classic men’s style. Two years later, the famous short sleeve shirt with the Polo emblem appeared, and it soon became a classic. These shirts have been collected by men all over the world ever since. Lauren, on the other hand, has been collecting rare and classic cars. The collection is so unique that it has been featured in the Boston Museum of Fine Arts.

 

 05 – Donatella Versace

 She is the sister of Gianni Versace, and she has proven to be no lesser sibling. After the murder of Gianni in 1997, Donatella took over and has taken the Versace name to new heights. She made sure that Versace shops would cater to the different fashion centers around the world, particularly Milan and New York. Top celebrities like Jennifer Lopez and Madonna have endorsed the company’s collection of clothes, accessories, fragrances and home furnishings.

 

04 – Calvin Klein

 

 Born in 1942 in New York, Klein also capitalized on his own charisma and lean good looks. Throughout the decades, rumors about his own sexual orientation seemed to fuel the ongoing mystique and appeal of this designer. His biggest business rival, Ralph Lauren, was believed to envy Klein’s ability to charm so effortlessly, and to “work a room”.

 

 03 – Giorgio Armani

 Giorgio Armani, an outstanding Italian fashion designer, particularly noted for his menswear for his clean, tailored lines. He formed his company, Armani, in 1975, and by 2001 was acclaimed as the most successful designer to come out of Italy, with an annual turnover of $1.6 billion and a personal fortune of $7 billion as of 2012. Armani is also the first ever designer to ban models who has a Body Mass Index under 18. He is truly a living legend and a great fashion designer.

 

 02 – Donna Karan

 Donna Karan came from a background that was related to fashion in certain ways. This fashion designer worked as a head of a design team for a few number of years and launched some designs that included the very well-known ‘Seven Easy Pieces’. She is the sole creator of the DKNY label (Donna Karen New York). Since then, this label has seen many new additions in the fashion segment.

 

 01 – Coco Chanel

 Born Gabrielle“Coco” Bonheur Chanel, she is a excellent French fashion designer, founder of the well known Chanel brand, whose modernist thought, practical design, and pursuit of expensive simplicity made her an important and influential figure in 20th-century fashion.

Hottest Victoria’s Secret Models of all time

Candice Swanepoel: is a South African model who was discovered in a flea market of all places. She’s appeared in advertisements for Nike as well as working for Victoria’s Secret.

  Miranda Kerr: is a huge part of Victoria’s Secret advertising, as she’s one of the Victoria’s Secret angels. Kerr is Australian and entered the fashion world after winning a modeling contest sponsored by Dolly magazine.

 

Alessandra Ambrosio: Tyra Banks has anointed Ambrosio “The future of the modeling world” and it’s not too tough to see why. Actually had her ears pinned back when she was 11 years old, and has since sworn off plastic surgery after having numerous complications. Has made cameos on Entourage as well as the film Casino Royale.

Another Victoria’s Secret Angel, Selita Ebanks grew up relative poverty in the Cayman Islands. She was discovered at the age of 17 at a Six Flags amusement park. Ebanks was engaged to rapper Nick Cannon before he moved on to marry Mariah Carey.

Adriana Lima: A Victoria’s Secret angel since 2000, Lima is also well known for being a spokeswoman for Maybelline, as well as her numerous magazine cover appearances.

Heidi Klum: A lot of debate went into this ranking, but when the dust settled we had to name Heidi Klum the hottest Victoria’s Secret model of all time. In all fairness however, any of the top seven would have fit, and I’m sure arguments could be made for many of the other girls in this list. In the end though, it has to be Klum. She’s managed to stay at peak hotness for something like fifteen years now, and for that alone she deserves the top spot.

Marisa Miller: took home the 1 slot on Maxim’s Hot 100 this past year, but she’s best known for her work in SI’s swimsuit issues as well as her Victoria’s Secret campaigns. Quite possibly the most famous working model in the world right now.

Petra Nemcova: was the cover girl for the 2003 edition of Sports Illustrated’s swimsuit issue. Nemcova is a survivor of the Thailand tsunami that struck in December of 2004. She suffered a broken pelvis and internal injuries but clung to the top of a palm tree for over eight hours before being rescued. So she’s pretty hard core for a Victoria’s Secret model.

Stephanie Seymour:  Another massively famous supermodel, Seymour has appeared on over 300 magazine covers. A serial dater back in the early 90’s, Seymour was attached to various famous men such as Warren Beatty and Axl Rose. 

Estella Warren: Not only is Warren a well known fashion model, she’s a national Canadian synchronized swimming champion. Multi-talented, honestly not something you can say about most fashion models .
