While we've already introduced you to Ashley Graham, the first "plus-sized" model to appear in an ad in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition ... another model is creating a ton of buzz for being the mag's first so-called "plus-sized" rookie to actually grace its coveted pages.
Meet Robyn Lawley!
The 25-year-old Australian native describes herself as "a model beyond a size 10" ... though we don't see anything but killer curves here!
While she may have the "plus-sized" label within the industry, Robyn admits that she doesn't put herself in any category.
"I don't know if I consider myself as a plus-size model or not," Lawley told Time magazine. "I just consider myself a model because I'm trying to help women in general accept their bodies."
"I never thought that this would happen to me, so this is a milestone," she added. "When I started my career 10 years ago, I had to painfully go to castings and people would look at you and say, 'What the hell are you doing here?' I want to be there for the regular girls who are my size."
It turns out, like Graham, Robyn first appeared in a campaign for the plus-size swimwear line, SwimsuitsForAll. Maybe the size 16 model will be a SI rookie next year -- we'll have to wait and see!
Another fun fact about SI's latest stunner? Lawley was pregnant when she shot her pictorial in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Clearly, she wasn't that far along.
