There is a first for everyone and size doesn't matter for designer Ralph Lauren. He has gone against the "only tall skinny mini's can be models" rule and decided to take the plunge and chose his first ever plus-size model. The gorgeous Australian model, Robyn Lawley, is 23 years old, 6'2 and wears a size 12. This was a big decision for Mr. Lauren and he let the world know that high fashion is beautiful in any size. Lawley, however, has become quite an icon in the modeling world of fashion. She has been shot in Vogue Italia and French Elle, and now, kicked off the beginning of plus size models to star in Ralph Lauren campaigns. For so many years, models were told the skinnier the better but, in our day and age more and more agencies are focusing on embracing your body structure the way it is. It's the start of something new.
Fabulous at any size!
Ciao,
Annie May
