Hey curvy girls all over the world,
You know we love when the envelope is pushed when it comes to body positive images. Well, yesterday, we heard the news about photographer Carey Fruth who was inspired by the movie American Beauty and shot 14 women with different body types in the nude. Carey said she was inspired by a scene in the film where Kevin Spacey’s character had a dream about his daughters teenage friend on a bed of roses. Fruth recreated the scene with 14 women of different races and body types.
The photo shoot represents women taking back their sexual power. The message is also taking a jab at how mainstream media portrays women as only being beautiful if they’re white, thin, and have blonde hair. The women in the photos range from petite to plus size, black and white to Asian.
I personally love the message and the photos are absolutely gorgeous. Kudos to Carey Fruth for trying to help redefine what society sees as beautiful.
