Tess Holliday on Whether She Would Work for VS: “Of course I’d do it – as long as it wasn’t a publicity stunt”

On wishing that Victoria’s Secret had plus sizes:

Growing up in Mississippi, I definitely remember Victoria’s Secret being a huge part of my teenage mall experience, but I couldn’t really fit into any of the underwear. Whenever I do stop in, it’s mostly with my friends – not all of my friends are plus-size – but I’ve never actually worn anything from there. I’ve never been able to. There’s a certain image that Victoria’s Secret upholds for this ‘perfect body,’ and if they were to branch out and have plus-size women, it might – in their eyes – ruin that business and branding goal,” she says. “But I think to have the biggest lingerie retailer in the world carry plus-size lingerie would be a huge step in the right direction and an accomplishment, not just for the industry, but for women in general.

On whether she would work for Victoria’s Secret:

I don’t know if I was necessarily being serious about telling VS to call me, but if they ever did add a plus-size model […] I’m sure the same thing would happen to them that did to me. Some people would think it’s great, some people would say it’s changing the industry, and then, you would have people who think it’s gross and think that we should be covered up. Of course I’d do it – as long as it wasn’t a publicity stunt. I’d want to make sure that they were offering the opportunity to a bunch of different plus-size models and not just me to get attention, [and] that they were making the move to broaden their customer base and celebrate different body types.

On how fat women aren’t allowed to feel sexy:

The bottom line is that there’s this pervasive feeling that fat girls aren’t supposed to feel sexy, and that needs to change. It’s something plus-size women are constantly messaged – either overtly or subconsciously – and that shows in a lack of options for lingerie. It all ladders back up to giving women a choice of doing what we want with our bodies, regardless of our size, and making it normal to see plus-size women in lingerie on TV, on billboards, and on Instagram is a great place to start.

… says size 22 Tess.
