The Search for Plus Size Models is on for AboutCurves.com Photo Shoot

AboutCurves.com is searching to find aspiring plus-size models to help spread the message of size acceptance and beauty by modeling new product offerings!

Baltimore, MD – January 24, 2012 – Online retailer AboutCurves.com, a provider of plus size lingerie and accessories, is seeking aspiring plus-size models to help spread the message of size acceptance and beauty at any size throughout the fashion industry.

An upcoming photo shoot for the lingerie retailer will show off a wide variety of new plus size lingerie products. These photo shoots allow the retailer to challenge the idea that women have to fit into a certain mold in order to be attractive and that women of varying body types have limited options with respect to lingerie.

“We hold our own photo shoots because we think it’s so important that our customers can visualize what they would look like in our products,” says KC Culver, one of the company co-founders. “For that reason, we choose models with a variety of body types. We’re fighting against companies who care only about profits and show customers photos of size zero women in their lingerie.”
