Ashley Graham, the first plus-size model to grace the pages of Sports Illustrated, is proving once again that her talents reach far beyond her impressive modelling credentials as she poses up in the latest collection from her collaborative lingerie collection.

‘Those girls, I mean I’ve watched their careers and they have just blossomed into extraordinary and amazing things,’ she said. ‘I can’t wait to be the curvier version of all of them.’
Ashley, an advocate for body diversity, is also part of the plus-size model collective ALDA, which includes successful international models Marquita Pring, Julie Henderson, Inga Eiriksdottir and Danielle Redman.
‘ALDA is a new collective of models that represents beauty without divisions, boundaries, and – most importantly – beauty that doesn’t conform to any body shape or size,’ states the Alda website.

More than just support: Ashley has long been an advocate for body confidence and has been candid about her struggles in the fashion industry as a plus-sized woman
In an interview with Glamour magazine, Icelandic model Eiriksdottir explained: ‘We had all worked together for many years before our agency closed a lot of their divisions including plus size, which is the one we were in.
‘I contacted the girls I knew and the ones that had been the most successful in the business to see how we could, as a group, have impact on the business.’
She added: ‘It’s exciting to see the positive change in the industry, and we already see a lot more diversity in age, size and race than before in magazines and on the runways.’
