Meet Robyn Lawley, a gorgeous 6’2″ Australian beauty who is taking the modeling world by storm. Lawley has been featured in countless magazines including Elle and Vogue and made history becoming the first plus sized model to pose for Ralph Lauren. The 23-year-old was an instant inspiration for girls around the world when she was featured on last years July cover of Vogue Italia with fellow plus sized models Tara Lynn and Candice Huffine. Lawley was also recently named the new face of UK lingerie brand Boux Avenue. …..If you’re still looking for the “plus sized” model , the pictures below are correct, like buxom beauties who came before her i.e. Crystal Renn and Marilyn Monroe, Lawley is equivalent to an american size 12 which is quite a common size but considered plus sized in the modeling world. Lawley though doesn’t think of herself as “plus-sized”, she prefers to use the term “normal sized” and is an activist supporting healthy body image, particularly for young girls with low self-esteem, and also has a food blog called Robyn Lawley Eats. Bravo to beauty in all forms.

I wish I was that “plus sized!” She’s beautiful, and what a great message she sends to those of us who are “normal.”
Reblogged this on Le Procrastinista and commented:
I love this. This is is such a leap for women-kind. Doesn’t she look fantastic?
great article!
This makes me soo freaking happy, that women is so gorgeous and I love her thickness. Beauty comes in all shapes in sizes. I’ve seen thin beautiful women and thick beautiful ones and everything in between =).
Love this blog, I just found it from the People article! keep it up:)
i can not understand were on here boby is this “super size”. On her breasts? she is not thick, not even chubby. the picture of a women in our society is absolutly ill if you call her a super size… i would be the luckyest women if all models looking so normal like her…
Just beautiful, thank you for introducing me to this amazing inspiration.
Big secret: She is the kind of women 99% of men find attractive anyway. Men are most attracted to normal looking women. Lose the tattoos though. That is like graffiti on the Sistine Chapel.
this lady is not a plus size she is just a giant and gorgeous with it gotta be all men to handle her lol
I saw her on GMA yesterday! All the news outlets are jumping on the bandwagon that this blog started!!!!! It’s about time beautiful women were celebrated! Thanks for this
She is stunning!
what’s amazing is that these are NORMAL bodies, not distorted by photography and editing/distorting
there need to be THREE categories: couture (means miniscule and skeletal), Average (what would now pass for sizes 6-12) and PLUS (14 and up). The AVERAGE, size 6-12, NORMAL woman has TOTALLY been over looked!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Plus sized? NO…..Gorgeous? YES!
She is stunning!
She’s amazing!
This is upsetting that society see’s her as “plus sized”, she is beautiful and healthy.
Great article! She’s so beautiful
Plus sized? She looks average to me.
I feel the same way!
