Stunningly beautiful plus size models Candice Huffine, Tara Lynn & Robyn Lawley rocked the internet when they posed for the cover  of Vogue Italia’s Belle Vere.    That shining moment for Robyn Lawley continues because from Vogue Italia’s June 2011 issue she is again on another Vogue feature, the August issue of Vogue Australia’s editorial called  “Curve” with a tag-line “va-va-voom”.

Robyn is the very first non-straight model to appear on the glossy pages of Vogue Australia. Her photo shoots make a beautiful showcase of plus size fashion where she looks bold and beautiful in her fine figure  clothed in fashions tailored by Australian designers Alex Perry, Willow and Carla Zampatti.

From  the Stylite, Editor-In-Chief Kirstie Clements said in her editor’s letter:

“This is the first time Vogue Australia has shot a larger model and of course now that we have done it, I ask myself why we didn’t do it sooner. But that’s because Robyn is especially gorgeous. I went to the shoot to meet her and was transfixed by her beauty and poise. She is a truly super duper model. When a plus size model first turns up to the studio, she may be an anomaly to a team normally used to working with size 6’s, but once photographer Max Doyle started shooting Robyn, we quickly readjusted our preconceived notions of beauty. She doesn’t actually look plus size to me at all now. I said to a colleague on set later that day, “And men like curves don’t they?” He looked at me like I was an idiot. “Yes Kirsty, we certainly do” was his laconic reply. It’s an interesting conversation – the world of high fashion and fuller-figured women. One that needs to be continued”.

Robyn Lawley is a 22 year old Aussie beauty size 14 who lives in New York. She has graced the cover of Vogue Italia and French Elle and other countless editorials.
