There is no definition of perfection and should not be one because everybody is perfect in their way and style.
Beauty has no shape, and as diversity becomes an increasing focus in the fashion industry, so many plus-size models are becoming household names. These models have millions of fans on social media and appear on the runway, red carpet, and cover of magazines.
According to data taken by the ABS in 2016, the definition of a plus-size model might be surprising: in the fashion industry, plus-size models are defined as being those who are size eight and up, when in the real world, the average size of an Australian woman is a size 14-16.
Below, we present the top most famous plus-size models in the world.
Kate Wasley
Aussie model Kate Wasley rose to social media fame as one half of Instagram duo @any.body_co.
