Model Makes History as the First Plus Size Woman to Feature in Sports Illustrated

Model Ashley Graham has become the first plus size model to ever feature in an issue of Sports Illustrated magazine,  set to arrive on newsstands on February 9th, and, whats more, she will  make her debut in annual Swimsuit Issue. Ashley is spotting a string bikini in an ad campaign for SwimsuitsForAll – a company that famously recreated the cover of the Swimsuit Issue with all plus-size models last year!

What do you think of this change in the modelling industry?

Moving forward, the model and the swimwear brand plan to go full throttle with a social media campaign, tagged #CurvesinBikinis, to show their curvy girl pride.
