Recently, thick models have come into fashion again. Photos of these donuts increasingly appear on the pages of glossy magazines. Looking at them, slender girls cautiously begin to look around, in anticipation of when a new fashionable boom will sweep all around. But is everything really as it seems at first glance, or is the popularity of full women just a fleeting phenomenon?
The kingdom of exquisite style
The world of fashion is fickle, and everyone living in it is well aware of it. But even in such conditions, the approach of change is always accompanied by noise and a certain amount of indignation. Especially when it comes to changes that can completely break the usual stereotypes.
It's no secret that in recent decades, designers have attracted exceptionally thin girls to their shows. And any attempts to change this at best led to the fact that the innovator was considered an eccentric. Simply put, in the world of fashion there was no such thing as a “fat model”.
No, of course, some designers still produced clothing lines designed for lush women. However, no one represented them at shows in Milan, and even more so, thick models did not pose for the covers of leading glossy magazines.
How did thin women make their way to the big catwalk?
So, why did it happen that the thick models were out of work? Why is the monopoly of slim bodies reigning in the world? And what did it lead to?
It should be noted that until the 70s of the last century, girls in the body were very in demand. Take, for example, Marilyn Monroe, which for a long time was the standard of female beauty and charm. Yes, she was not fat, but you can’t call her skinny either. But with the advent of the 80s, everything changed dramatically - thin models completely "crushed" a large podium for themselves.
This was partly due to the fact that designers, in their desire to save fabric, began to sew dresses on small and slender girls. The rest is blamed on propaganda from the same glossy publications and television. As a result, the thick models were left out of work, bitterly recalling the past.
New “boom” in the world of haute couture
And now, 30 years after the victorious triumph of thin people, the situation is changing again. And now fat women models are beginning to crowd out rivals from catwalks and photography. Perhaps, it may seem to someone that this is only a fleeting phenomenon, unable to affect the overall picture as a whole. However, enthusiastic reviews from the public about the lush beauties tell us otherwise.
Moreover, every year the number of fans of such stars is only growing. Given this, one should not be surprised that many designers, sensing a new opportunity to gain fame, began to sew more and more dresses for chubby models. Which, in turn, only increased the hype around this topic.
Tara Lynn - The Most Famous Plus Model
To date, the most famous model with extremely curvaceous forms is Tara Lynn. The future star was born in Canada on February 25, 1982. She graduated from the Drama University. This allowed her to become an actress and play in several films.
But she made a splash in the fashion world thanks to the Spanish magazine Elle. After all, this very publication published original photos in 2010. At the same time, the girl’s appearance was so much liked by the trendsetters that she was soon invited to take pictures for another fashionable gloss - Vogue Italia.
After this, Tara's career skyrocketed. And the fact that she is the thickest model in the world absolutely did not bother the public. True, soon the lady lost this title, because other thick models presented themselves for worldwide viewing.
A new generation of glossy magazine dumplings
Following the example of Tara Lynn, many girls in the body also began to break into the fashion catwalk. Probably the biggest sensation was made by Tess Holliday, whose photo on the cover of her magazine was published by the world famous People publication in June 2015.
Tess Holliday is the thickest model in the world. Her weight is 126 kilograms, and this is with a growth of 1 m 65 cm. However, even despite such dimensions, many consider her very attractive and ... sexy. Moreover! Millions of people around the world have made her their idol, as it makes them understand that a large body is not an object for complexes.
Naturally, such glory awaits not all the donuts. However, the results of such a revolution are already making themselves felt. So, since 2006, many modeling agencies refuse to work with girls whose weight is very small. And this is just the beginning. Therefore, who knows, perhaps in the near future thick models will completely replace the former anorexic beauties, thereby avenging them for past grievances.
