Plus Size Lingerie Models

Plus size lingerie models are gaining more attention lately as magazines and other media are steering away from the skinny model trend. The fashion world considers any woman size 8 or higher to be "plus size," and there are plenty of beautiful lingerie models who fit this category.

Ashley Graham

Ashley Graham is one of the most well-known plus size lingerie models, due in part to controversy over a television ad she filmed for Lane Bryant. The ad featured Graham wearing Lane Bryant bras and panties, and then covering up with only an overcoat to go meet her boyfriend for lunch. The commercial was deemed too racy by two major networks, despite the fact that similar ads from Victoria's Secret had aired on the same networks.

Graham was discovered at the young age of 12 in her hometown of Lincoln, Nebraska, and signed with Ford Models at age 15. She is a size 16.

Lizzie Miller

Lizzie Miller had been modeling for years when she suddenly became an overnight sensation. After a small photo of Miller in her underwear appeared in Glamour magazine, women across the country wrote in to tell the editors how much they loved it. The photo was not airbrushed, and featured a small belly roll as well as faint stretch marks. Miller was heralded as a "real woman," and her popularity soared. She was soon added to the Lane Bryant stable of lingerie models, and signed on for an ad campaign for Just My Size.

Tara Lynn

Tara Lynn has made the most of her curvy figure. After starting her modeling career in 2008, she was tapped to appear on the cover of the Italian Vogue magazine along with fellow plus size models Candice Huffine and Robyn Lawley. The models are wearing lingerie on the cover and in a photo spread inside the issue. Tara Lynn is the face (and body) for the Plie brand of lingerie and undergarments, and a popular swimsuit model for H&M.
