Ashley Graham

Think Playboy, think super-slim models sporting bunny tails and rabbit ears (or less). Well, think again. Because after featuring its very first transgender model on the cover, the men’s lifestyle magazine is breaking with tradition once again to feature a stunning plus-size model.

It was long in coming, but finally, normal to “healthy” sized models are making their mark on fashion runways around the world, reversing all too pervasive images of skeleton-like waifs parading around in size …0 creations.

February’s Sports Illustrated: Swimsuit Issue will be released on the 9th of this month. For the first time, the pages of the Sports Illustrated mag will include a “plus size” (normal person size) model in its pages.

This is 27 year old Ashley Graham who is the first model of this kind to grace the famous magazine.
