Velvet d'Amour is arguably the World's First plus-sized Supermodel.
She who has modelled for Jean Paul Gaultier , John Galliano and a slew of other designer labels, and has appeared in the pages of numerous magazines world wide such as Bella , Choc , and most notably, Vogue .
Tall, beautiful, curvy, photogenic, confident and full of personality, she started out as a waif model just like any other out there.
There was even a time she suffered from eating disorders.
Struggling with self-esteem issues and other emotional turmoils, took a hold on her life.
All that behind her, these days, she's positive and full of vibrance.
Fashion and photography has always been a big part of Velvet's life. Especially the latter which she continues to indulge in even today.
So, when one fine day in late 2006, the opportunity came for her to strut her stuff once more, when the fashion industry began to turn up their snobbish noses at the unhealthily thin girls who were flooding the catwalks, Velvet was upfront and center.
(Tyra Banks' 'So What?' movement sure helps)
Strutting her stuff down the runway, to thunderous applause, her career as a model, ironically, only then , really took off.
Back then, she was but another struggling model in a sea of anonymous young girls who were hopelessly waiting and seriously starving.
Today, Velvet's FLAB-ULOUSLY BEAUTIFUL.
"Everyone's Beautiful"- JPG, indeed.
