“My holiday lingerie collection with @additionelle will be available Oct 13th!!! Here’s a sneak peek.. #iamsizesexy,” she captioned the snap.
Graham, who is a UK size 16, has also found a new fan in Khloe Kardashian, and the model is very excited to have the Kardashian seal of approval as she re-grammed an Instagram post about her.
“I had an AMAZING day at the @Forbes #Under30Summit!! And this FB post from @khloekardashian was the cherry on top!! Watch my snapchat for bts and my periscope for the panel discussion from today with #forbesunder30! #damngina,” she wrote.

The 28-year-old has recently been involved in campaigns such as #PlusIsEqual and dedicated a recent TED talk to celebrating her curves.
Standing in front of a full-length mirror on stage she said to herself: “You are bold, you are brilliant and you are beautiful. There is no other woman like you.”
But she didn’t stop there. While most women are preconditioned to berate their reflection, Graham has nothing but good things to say about her appearance.
“Back fat? I see you popping over my bra today, but that’s alright I’m going to choose to love you. And thick thighs? You are just so sexy you can’t stop rubbing each other. That’s alright. I’m going to keep you,” she added.
“And cellulite, I have not forgotten about you. I’m going to choose to love you even though you want to take over my whole bottom half. You’re a part of me and I love you.”
Just another reason we need more body positive activists like Ashley Graham.

Actress Gina Rodriguez has joined forces with lingerie brand Naja to help financially empower women in Colombia and Latinas everywhere.
According to InStyle, Rodriguez has joined Naja CEO Catalina Girald, who grew up in Colombia, in her mission to create fashionable lingerie for the everyday woman, while also giving back to the Latino community.
Naja Lingerie makes stylish and comfortable pieces of classic and modern lingerie. Rodriguez was drawn to the project by the company’s mission to give back to the women who work in its Colombian manufacturing headquarters, reported Forbes.
“Partnering with Naja was a no brainier,” Rodriguez said. “Not only is the lingerie beautiful and well-made but the foundation and the mission of the company aligns perfectly with my heart.”

The brand’s products are manufactured in Colombia by single women from low-income families. The female employees provide for themselves and their families through work at Naja. They can also send their children to college through the Naja College Education fund.
Girald, who started Naja in 2013, revealed that she felt the partnership with the Puerto Rican actress would be very beneficial.
“She’s this up-and-coming celeb with such a big voice,” Girald told Women’s Wear Daily. “We decided that we wanted to work together to empower women and empower Latinas because that’s something that’s on Gina’s radar.”
While sales of Naja lingerie benefit the women of Colombia, Rodriguez is also using her fame and partnership with the brand to promote healthy, empowering confidence in women everywhere.
“I wear lingerie to feel good about myself, to use my body as a hanger for something beautiful,” the actress said. “Every girl, no matter her sexuality, economic background, demographic background, wants to look in the mirror and love herself first. I think our lingerie is to love yourself and wear the lingerie for yourself first and foremost.”
