This Woman Took A Picture Wearing Just Tights To Make A Powerful Statement About Body Image
It’s amazing how much something as seemingly innocent as a pair of tights can make you feel like total crap about your body—and one woman is laying it all out on Instagram.
Body positive activist Milly Smith, who operates under the Insta handle @selfloveclubb, posted side-by-side photos of herself in a pair of black tights, noting that they look like they’re being worn by different people.

Windsor group goes analog to improve perceptions of body image
A Windsor eating disorder association has launched a project that aims to improve perceptions of body image by encouraging people to take selfies with a Polaroid camera.
The Bulimia Anorexia Nervosa Association set up shop at the University of Windsor this week, asking students to take photos without giving them the ability to edit or enhance the images
The Be Your Selfie project is a departure from the easily altered images people share on social media, which are easily modified to change someone’s appearance.
“It’s in the moment,” said Zara Ali, who snapped a selfie with the Polaroid. “It’s your everyday kind of life, whereas, if you’re posting something on Instagram, you are going to look at it for the longest time ever.”
This Body-Positive Photo Series of Women Embracing Their Curves Is Mesmerizing
Photographer and plus-size model Silvana Denker is back with a new body-positive series.

The series features nude women covered from head to toe in gold and silver body paint, posing for portraits against a black background — a powerful statement to embrace your body as it is. One of the women in the photoshoot was Denker’s 52-year-old mother.

- The way she announced her pregnancy.
- The fact that she did announce her pregnancy.
- That she looked amazing in her pregnancy photoshoot.
