Today the fashion business has become much more tolerant - the parameters 90-60-90 and baby-face have not yet outlived their usefulness, but they are gradually giving way to a variety of figures, faces and types. It is good or bad for you to decide, but we will tell you about five models who managed to conquer the fashionable Olympus, despite their obvious failure to fall into the classic canons of beauty.
Shawn Ross
Today he is called one of the most sought-after male models. Despite his atypical appearance by the age of 28, he managed to work with Alexander McQueen and Givenchy, and also starred for Vogue, iD, GQ, Another Magazine. Nice career, huh? Meanwhile, all his life he faced rejection and condemnation: Sean was called "Powder", "Casper" and "Putty". But the boy had a passion for the stage: at first he was engaged in dancing, after - acting. By the age of 16, Sean got into the fashion industry, where many doors were opened for him.
Yuniya Pakhomova
The Gucci star is a girl with an alien appearance from Nizhny Novgorod. It was from her head that they made a cast for the show in February 2018. Junia's portfolio includes work with Alexander Wang, Y / Project, MSGM and Ann Demeulemeester, filming for Vogue, Dazed Magazine, Harper's Bazaar.
Armine Harutyunyan
The 23-year-old model managed to conquer only a part of the fashion world, but the agents predict a great future for the girl in the fashion industry! Armine lives in Yerevan and works as a book illustrator. By a lucky coincidence, during a trip to Berlin, a model scout noticed the girl on the street - he took her photo and took the girl's contacts. A month later, Armine got a call and was invited to a casting at Gucci. Armine became the star of the show on September 22 this year, presenting the brand's latest collection. The fashion house explained their choice by the fact that the boundaries of our ideas about human beauty should be pushed apart. We are sure that we will soon see Armine at other shows.
Ashley Graham
The most famous American plus-size model who has worked with publications such as Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, Glamor and Elle UK. She is also the first custom model to appear on the cover of a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue. A modeling agent found Ashley when she was just 12 years old. Many say that if it were not for the model's truly angelic face, it is unlikely that anyone would want to advertise their product with her body. Nevertheless, the fact remains: today Ashley Graham is one of the most popular models in the West, who, in addition to work, has time to speak in high schools on the issues of accepting her body.
Winnie Harlow
Even people who are far from the fashion industry know Vinnie. Popularity came to her after participating in the show "America's Next Top Model" - Vinnie became the first and only participant with a rare disease - vitiligo. As a child, the girl was bullied, calling her "cow" and "zebra", Harlow thought about suicide more than once. But life smiled at her, making her feature a hallmark that helped her to succeed. The model has starred for Vogue, Cosmopolitan, Glamor, Dazed and iD, and also gave a TED presentation about her life with vitiligo.
