She says she is thrilled to be an
ambassador for Boux Avenue, the high street lingerie company owned by
Dragons’ Den star Theo Paphitis, but admits that she spent much of her
adolescence battling with her weight.
She told Fabulous magazine in 2011 ‘I stumbled across pro-anorexia websites and scoured them for tips,’
‘I began starving myself and making myself sick after meals.
‘My mum Janne was concerned but she had no idea how serious the problem was. Plus, I became an expert at lying.’
Today the model has embraced her curves, inspired by models like Crystal Renn, and wants to break down barriers in the fashion industry.

face and body of Boux Avenue lingerie,’ says Robyn.’The brand is
striving to promote a healthy body image and their size range reflects
this.
