Lovely. And not calling the collection "plus size" is pretty cool. It's about time some pros wanting to let go of this segregation.

A few years ago Jennie Runk's picture in 2013( First Image) was often used in forums and threads across the Internet to use as an example as chubby or plus size. 

She is still around and still looks pretty much the same. 

Favorite Plus size Model( Reason I posted)

This is excerpt from wikipedia  is quite interesting

Runk was discovered in 2003 at 13 in a PetSmart in Chesterfield, Missouri by Mary Clarke of Mother Model Management while she was volunteering for the cat adoption department.[9][10] At the time, she was a size 8, in between straight size and plus-size modeling.[8] The Clarkes told her she needed to either lose weight or gain weight to model. She chose to gain between 10 and 20 lb (4.5 and 9.1 kg) to a size 10–12 to become a plus-size model.

Wise choice:

Just a small observation

In this article from 2009  she explains how she gained weight on purpose, achieving a weight of approximatelly 170 lbs corresponding to the measurements of 38-32-44.

but on her portfolio her current measurements are 38DD-37-50

perhaps  it's just the  typical  weightgain women usually experiment after marriage, or perhaps she enjoys being a big girl  ;)
