British modeling agency Models 1 has introduced a new feature putting the spotlight on its Curve girls. Photographed by Michelle George, models Karmi Pinning, Charlotte Quita Jones, Iskra Lawrence and Anna Fritzdorf go completely unretouched in the black and white images. In addition, the girls were each interviewed about what posing sans Photoshop meant for them. Karmi says, “Unretouched is important to me as it is an honest representation woman. It shows us in a very natural way that highlights you can be beautiful without retouching or over the top hair/ makeup. As plus models we’re a new generation of role models for young girls, this raw shoot is a great way to inspire body confidence and enhanced natural beauty.”

  1. I don´t get the hashtag DropThePlus. Plus size is not a negative word. You have to have a word for the different sizes.
    You would think that plus is better than minus. Being at plus size is not the same as being called fat.
