Tess Holliday Is Rocking A Swimsuit On The Cover Of Cosmo UK
The newest cover girl for Cosmopolitan UK is none other than model and body-positive activist Tess Holliday.
Holliday’s photo isn’t a tight crop on her face and her body isn’t drowning in an oversized coat, as other magazines have been criticized for in the past.
Rather, Holliday posed in a green swimsuit with all of her curves in the frame.
Phew, I’m literally a COSMO GIRL!! Can’t believe I’m saying that! 😭😭 Thank you @CosmopolitanUK for this incredible opportunity 🙏🏻 If I saw a body like mine on this magazine when I was a young girl, it would have changed my life 💕 Issue hits stands 8/31! 🎉🎉🎉🎉 pic.twitter.com/sBYWY7nEwZ
Trying to figure out how different my life and self-image would be if I had grown up seeing women of all sizes represented like this. pic.twitter.com/rvN13dba74
Many women are saying how important it is to see someone who looks like them front a magazine.
I love you Tess, thanks so much for fighting this battle so girls like us can FINALLY stop hating ourselves, while looking FUCKING GORGEOUS doing it!! 😍😍😍
Imagine if we got to see larger women represented in media all the time?
For some reason I burst into tears when I saw this. Maybe because I used to pore through women's magazines at a teen for HOURS of misery, imagining how much happier I'd be if I looked like them. I just pray this means my daughters won't waste so many formative minutes. https://t.co/pUoSjQaKFF
