Plus-sized model, Ashley Graham, is making history by posing in Sports Illustrated’s annual swimsuit issue.Graham
stars in the first ever ad to feature a plus-size model in the pages of
the highly anticipated issue. This means that along with the usual
models —
Benhati Prinsloo,
Chrissy Teigen,
Heidi Klum,
Adirana Lima, to name a few — a curvier woman totally rocking a string bikini will be in the same pages.
“I
know my curves are sexy and I want everyone else to know that theirs
are too. There is no reason to hide and every reason to flaunt,” Graham
says in a statement.
