Panache tankini

We’ve known for a long time that beauty comes in all shapes and sizes. Here at UpperCup, we love celebrating the curvy loveliness of bigger boobed beauties, and it seems at last the fashion world is catching up.

We came across an interesting article in the Irish Independent by Victoria Mary Clarke, who talks about her lifelong battle between wanting to eat what she likes without feeling guilty and wanting to be as thin as a traditional petite sized catwalk model.

Victoria recently discovered that fashion mag editors with their finger on the pulse were increasingly using beautiful, voluptuous, plus size women in their magazines and designers were more and more keen to use plus size models to promote their products – meaning they sell more!

And it seems the demand for plus size models is spreading worldwide. Over in Australia, Gold Coast website reports there’s a shortage of larger ladies to model sexy swimwear.

Kerryn Anker tells of a swimwear designer who had to comb half of Australia to find an agency that can supply plus-size models, despite the fact that women like seeing models they can relate to.

So if you’re looking for a modelling career, perhaps Australia’s the place to start! And even if you’re just looking for some super-sexy plus size swimwear to wear on the beach or at the local pool, we’ve got some gorgeous Panache and Fantasie goodies to choose from.
