Robyn has graced the pages of French Elle, French Vogue and Australian Vogue and has become a role model for curvy women in recent years.
The Australian, who stands 6'2'' and is a size 16, is ecstatic about the decision, but wasn't always so comfortable about her own skin. She tells the Daily Mail how she spent much of her younger years battling the scale:

The Australian, who stands 6'2'' and is a size 16, is ecstatic about the decision, but wasn't always so comfortable about her own skin. She tells the Daily Mail how she spent much of her younger years battling the scale:
I stumbled across pro-anorexia websites and scoured them for tips. I began starving myself and making myself sick after meals. My mum Janne was concerned but she had no idea how serious the problem was. Plus, I became an expert at lying.
But now at 23, Lawley is not only taking it all off for the cameras but s also active in promoting healthy body images among women. She even writes a food blog called Robyn Lawley Eats:I am delighted to be chosen as the face and body of Boux Avenue lingerie. The brand is striving to promote a healthy body image and their size range reflects this.
Guess this just goes to show you that you can feel beautiful, even if you can't fit in to those size 2 jeans.
