A Stunning model has waded into the fashion industry debate while posing for a sexy new lingerie campaign.
Danish beauty Christine Sofie is one of three gorgeous models to star in Figleaves new autumn/winter 17 campaign #AShapeForEveryShape.
Hoping to spread body confidence while unveiling their new collection, the underwear brand spoke to the stunners about the representation of different sizes and shapes in the fashion industry.
Commenting on the current boom of body positivity, Christine said: “I think everybody has noticed the wave of change that’s on the move.”
But she echoed the statement of other curvy models, like Iskra Lawrence and Stefania Ferrario, by slamming the “plus-size” label.
She said: “To be quite frank I’m really over talking about shapes and sizes and straight-size and plus-size.
“Why can’t a model just be a model regardless of the size and shape?
“People tend to have this need to categorise everything – it’s easier with vegetables and foods – don’t do it with humans, because we are all different.”
“Plus is usually positive.
“You have a plus in your account, if you’re plus.
“Anything it means you have extra, enough to share, which usually is a great thing.
“In Denmark we have a saying: ‘Hey, you’re so extra/plus.’ It means that you’re really cool or looking great.”
Fellow model Soleil Huscher also opened up about seeing more size diversity in the style sphere.
She said: “I’ve definitely seen a change in terms of different body shapes, skin colours, ages and interesting looks.
“I love that you see more diversity in ads, campaigns and TV.
“Social media has been a great platform for introducing and sharing more diversity in the fashion world.
“I do believe there’s still a way to go. Especially in the high fashion world there’s still a lot of pressure on girls to be very skinny.”
