Note from BW of Brazil : Having gone to a recent fashion event which featured black women of all shapes, hair textures and skin tones, I thought it was time to show a little love to black brasileiras who are doing their thing in the world of Plus Size models. It’s a shame, but as one of my model contacts recently revealed, even inside of the world of the Plus Size Model, white and/or blond women are still chosen over black women. The model revealed how one of her friends, also a Plus Size Model, had won a Plus Size competition but had received very few calls to modeling shows requesting larger women. She went on to say how her friend mentioned how she had watched how the white women who came in second and third place in the contest in which she won get many more invitations to shows than she.
Although my contact wouldn’t reveal the name of the model, I DO wonder if it could have been Josiane Lyra, who had come in first place in a Plus Size contest last year . It’s not surprising. In Brazil, EVERYTHING is deemed better if it is wrapped in white skin. Too many examples of Brazil’s “dictatorship of whiteness” to list here, so let’s just appreciate the models featured in today’s post, courtesy of Criloura, one of bloggers who is giving black Brazilian women a voice in the online community .
Black Plus Size Fashion Models – Yes, we can!
Hey guys! How ya doin’? I missed you all but I’m back and the subject of this post is plus size fashion. You know what this is?
Plus Size is an English term meaning large size, i.e. size for gordinhas (thick, full figured), cheinhas (chubby) or however you wish to call it. In general, plus sizes start from number 44. In the case of the person who wrote to us, in some cases, it’s 46. So yes I am plus size. And you?
In my case, my proportions are affirmed I also l assume my status as a mulher negra e gorda (thick/fat black woman), yes. This is a serious, important issue and that needs to be taken up for discussion and reflection, as the image of both profiles tend to be denied by the standardization that society impose upon us.
Because of this, many women have low self esteem and devalued because they meet these two qualities. Hey, feel happy and privileged of being who you are and to appreciate yourself. Let’s fight and be happier with what we are and what we have.
In my research I found several black Brazilian plus size models, and that’s cool. I present a gallery of photos of them so we can get inspired, strengthen ourselves and appreciate what we are as people. Check it out!
This is the person who speaks to us, me. Thick yes, negra and favelada (slum resident). Why not? I am what I am and this does not disqualify me!!!!
People, let’s remember that there is no standard beauty, but the beauty that each one of us has and possess, but for being what we are and what we have.
So, appreciate yourself! Be you! Look at yourself, recreate yourself. Create your concepts you’re your standards. Be free!

The founder of Brazil 's Miss BumBum competition has called on women to stop trying to copy Kim Kardashian , claiming the trend towards ever bigger bottoms is 'a cause for national concern'.
Cacau Oliver, owner of the hugely successful best butt competition franchise, claims Brazilian women have become 'so obsessed' by the American reality star that most 'style their own bum on hers'.
And he appealed for them to be more 'patriotic' and avert a crisis by preserving the natural beauty of the iconic Brazilian bottom famous around the world.
Cacau Oliver, the found of the Miss BumBum contest has said Brazil is facing a 'national crisis' over the size of women's bottoms, with constant pressure to make them bigger
Mr Oliver urged Brazilian women to be 'patriotic' and keep their natural curves, rather than using surgery to enhance their features
The annual 'best bottom' contest is now in its eighth year and is Brazil's most popular beauty pageant, with women who are crowned Miss Bumbum becoming overnight celebrities.
But last year the competition changed its rules to ban contestants whose backsides exceeded 43 inches in diameter - the same as Kim Kardashian's famous asset.
Mr Oliver, speaking on the eve of the launch of his autobiography, 'Make Celebrities', said the Kim effect risked turning Brazil into a nation of 'unslightly, exaggerated bottoms'.
He said: 'Unfortunately Kim Kardashian's bottom has redefined parameters in the nation of the bumbum.
'Over recent years we have seen how the Kim effect had changed what is considered a beautiful body, and especially a desirable bottom.
Las year Mr Oliver took the step of banning bottoms bigger than Kim's - 43 inches - from the competition in an attempt to make it 'classy and elegant'
Mr Oliver said Brazil risks becoming a nation of 'unslightly, exaggerated bottoms' unless the Kardashian trend could be reversed
'Certainly when it comes to bottom aesthetics, she has become the only reference in Brazil. Every woman wants their bum to look exactly like hers, it's almost an obsession.
'Among Miss Bumbum hopefuls it has almost become a rule that every bottom needs to look like Kim's.'
But he says the socialite's huge success in the South American country threatens to 'take the beauty out of the Brazilian bumbum, which would be a tragedy for us.
'Brazil has always been known as the land of the beautiful, sexy bottom. But now they are getting too big to be naturally beautiful and that should be a cause for national concern.'
He added: 'I would ask Brazilian women to think again before trying to achieve a bottom like Kim Kardashian's.
'I would ask them to be patriotic and instead of trying to copy an American bottom, strive to preserve Brazil's image around the world.'
More women have their bottoms surgically enhanced in Brazil than any other country, with more than 64,000 butt lift procedures carried out every year.
