but that is "plus sized" you can be tall or busty and you have to buy a larger size. It just has a stigma... unlike big and tall. My (beloved) boyfriend a big guy and needs to get back to pre-pandemic weight but there aren't any clothing companies shaming his tummy.

"Plus sized" in the US is considered anything over a size 14 - so yes, these ladies are definitely plus sized.

To find out more about the Plus-Size Princess Project, Bored Panda reached out to one of the participants, Michaela McGrady, who’s a plus-size model, social media influencer, and body neutrality advocate from LA.

Michaela dressed up as her favorite character Princess Anna, while her sister Hunter transformed into Princess Elsa. “Anna and Elsa represent a strong sisterly bond that she and I share. We would really do anything for each other, so to be able to bring that to life was so exciting for us!”

Michaela also said that being able to put the plus-size spin on the transformations was very important to women. “I know that seeing someone who had a body type like me when I was a young girl would have been life-changing.”

Michaela believes that there’s an inherent bias within the beauty and fashion industries, which are “saturated with antiquated ideals. The truth is 68% of shoppers are considered plus-size. Designers and fashion houses have to start at the beginning by diversifying the people they hire and the bodies they seek to dress.”

In reality, the one-size-fits-all concept is ancient history, according to the plus-size model. “At this point, it’s either get on board with the rest of the world or get left in the dust,” she added.

But no journey towards body positivity and accepting yourself is easy. “It truly is a journey with many ups and downs, good days and bad days, and it’s all about getting to a place where the incredible significance of physical attractiveness is dialed down and how you feel about yourself isn’t affected by your appearance.”

literally 2 of the other men in the movie Mulan were plus size. it doesn't matter what race, what age, and what size you are to dress up and feel good about yourself. for example I am mixed (black and white) for Halloween I wanted to go as froggy from my hero academia so I started making my costume i showed some of my friends and they said I couldn't be froggy because of how dark my skin was, I still went and I felt great in my costume and I actually won a costume contest. it doesn't matter who you are or what you want to be do what makes you happy

She also gave a shout out to all of the incredible women who were a part of the project. “Seeing so many beautiful faces, diverse body types, and backgrounds was humbling and something I know we all intend to see a lot more of in the future,” Michaela concluded.

We neither need posts about Disney reimaginations nor about influencers. Mathematically this might make this post valid (-1 * -1), but I think it isn't.

By the way: as often when the euphemism "plus-sized" is used, obese is shown (at least for some of these women). This does not tell anything about beauty...it tells a lot about health, though.

Stop advertising that being too big is not a problem. We don't choose our body's, however we do choose if we take good care of it or not.

Yes, there are many body types and we should all not judge. But.. I think there is a fine line here. I think we need to draw the line at health. A few of these are in an unhealthy weight category and I don't think we should normalize that. Nor should we normalize the skinny models. Those are unhealthy too. Let's keep it between a US 6-16 as normal bodies (and if you are naturally smaller - fine, but there isn't something as being naturally bigger than that, unless you are pregnant)

I think they were all really pretty but if you look at the movies they have ballgowns most of them and these were kind of just a spring dress with a cape also the Cinderella one the model was beautiful but the dress wasn't like Cinderellas at all the only thing in common was blue that's about it

Stop trying to validate your lifestyle where you refuse to take care of yourself. I understand some women are a bit chubby and have square body shape like myself. But some of these women are WAY too overweight and it can lead to a lot of problems. Bruh, we are way too advanced in civilization to pretend like weight-related health issues don't exist.

Come on ... Obviously being overweight is neither a crime nor a shame, and many women are attractive and successful even if they are overweight. But I would like to know, but honestly, who believes that the protagonists of these photos are more beautiful than their counterparts. Being beautiful is not an obligation, you can also simply be attractive and intelligent ... but don't tell me that the dream princess weighs 150 kilos.

Wow. So much body shaming in these posts. Unless you are the doctor of any of these women, you have no idea how healthy they are. I am overweight - I wear a US size 12. I had my annual check up last month. My heart is healthy. My blood sugar is great - no diabetes, no pre-diabetes. My cholesterol is great. My blood pressure is great. I'm in excellent health. I eat healthy food. I exercise. I do yoga. I just happen to be bigger. My doctor knows how frustrated I am that I can't lose weight, but says I should be happy to be so healthy. (And yes, I have been tested for everything- thyroid issues, insulin resistance, vitamin deficiencies, various disorders - I've spent thousands on bloodwork. I'm stupidly healthy. )

Bizianka 4 years ago

Only few of the above girls are around US size 12, others are way bigger. You honestly think that, let say, a girl in Tinkerbell costume can run a mile or take stairs to 10th floor without any problem? Unlikely. When person can't do basic fitness routine, their are not healthy.

3points

Scyth 4 years ago

In the US obesity is the leading cause of death. Some of the "influencers" here are obese, thus most likely in danger. You are lucky to be healthy, but one example doesn't mean anything. Most fat and obese people are unhealthy, it's been known for years.

H Edwards 4 years ago

I'm a smoker. It hasn't caused me any health problems yet, but it will if I don't stop soon. I also spent many years as a US size 12, thinking I could never change it. I can't say I felt unhealthy when I was bigger, but I wasn't happy with the way I looked. So I did a year or so of eating at a calorie deficit (not much exercise for the first 8 months+) and now I am a US size 6. I do struggle to maintain it sometimes, especially this year, but I know why I put on weight and I know how to avoid it if I really want to. And by the way, many of the women in these pictures are very obese, way more overweight than you or I ever were.

Again, you are the exception, not the rule. I’m glad you’re healthy but in the same way we can’t judge people we’ve never seen, you can’t project your personal results on other people. You know full well that GENERALLY SPEAKING, being overweight is unhealthy. There is simply no valid argument to the contrary.
