i want to plus size model



I wanna be a model! 3 weeks ago

I’m young, fun, energetic, and I believe I have what it takes and more to be a model I’m not thin and lanky like those size 6 and under models. I am HEALTHY and I believe that is a better way to be.



Why I want to be. 2 months ago

All my life i have grown up bigger, and uglier then then rest. Then once i got older and i started to notice the opposite sex, i guess thats when i finally started caring about my apperance. But theres still always been this place inside me that feels because I’m plus size i can’t be beautiful. But i know i can if i really tried. My friends always say I’m pretty enough to be a model. And most of the time i don’t believe them.



Nothin' to it but to do it! 2 months ago

Hello plus size ladies and teens. My name is Jacqueline Lawrence. I am the CEO and Founder of In Full Bloom Modeling and Pageantry Academy, where we specialize in plus size modeling and pageantry workshops (www.ifbacademy.com). I became a plus size model in the early 80s when plus size modeling was not fashionable. I did it because my heart desired it. From modeling, I went on to pageantry, and then, from teaching modeling and pageantry. As much as I love modeling, I enjoy teaching the art much more because I get so much satisfaction from seeing people’s lives change. There’s one thing I’ve noticed about people who say they want to be/become plus size models…few really want to be a part of the profession, but most really want to look and feel their very best. Modeling isn’t just for the catwalk, but also for the sidewalk. Once most women leave that stage after their very first show, their minds are transformed, and there is little in the world that can stop them from reaching their goals. I recommend plus size modeling for every plus size woman and teen. It causes one to not only feel better about oneself on the stage, but even more importantly, off the stage. Some say that it is not necessary to attend modeling school. Although I believe you either got it or you don’t, all of us can stand to get better. Even those on America’s Next Top Model need to brush up on their skills and get critiqued to become their best. Take the plunge and shoot for the moon. Who knows…if you miss it, you might just catch a star. Life is short, be all you can be. Go for it! God bless.
