Instagram

With the rise of plus size models and influencers, the fashion world has been taken by storm to start promoting body positivity and self love.

In the U.S. today, a majority of women wear a size 14 and above, but most clothing lines still only sell up to a size 12.

With the rise in plus size models and influencers, more people are seeing others who look just like them being represented in the media. Fashion industries are beginning to take notice that many of their consumers are not a size 0 model.

Here are a few of the top plus size influencers showcasing how they are changing the fashion industry to be more body positive and inclusive.
