Top Designer Bridal Photoshoot Features Plus Size Model

Sabyasachi’s latest wedding wear features the plus size model in a positive move.

Any size above 8 is taken as a ‘plus-size’ in the model industry. Quite a flabbergasting threshold. Body discrimination is a real thing. Most elite brands of fashion tend to lend a deaf ear to this issue. In a country where the model industry is dominated by the conventional “slim and trim” models, the term “Plus size model” might sound far-fetched. The concept lacks acceptance and representation, both. We rarely find a Plus-size model walking the runway or being a part of photoshoots.

Devi, dominantly in the traditional bridal shade of red and Chowk is all about quintessential Sabyasachi elements and has a quaint touch to it. “When I look at the way women in rural India dress, their naiveté and their authenticity in how they express themselves through their clothing make them almost arrogant and defiant in a positive way,” quotes Sabyasachi conveying the idea behind this line.

We stand this classic collection because it’s all things good-another fine masterpiece by the designer but with a taste of inclusivity. An exemplary move. It’s a delight to see how the fashion industry is changing for the good, finally recognizing the plus-size models, extending the definition of beauty. We need a greater assortment of models in the runways too because everybody type needs to be normalized. Every single body is worthy enough to hit the run and slay. We need more of the body positivity and fair representation of every body type.
