The fashion industry is becoming more and more diverse, with models of different body shapes, abilities and races strutting their stuff for the world’s biggest brands.

On fan wrote, “What a beautiful statement!”

Another said: “I love it. This should be a regular thing. She’s so beautiful and happy in her own skin. I bet more women would feel better about themselves during postpartum with new mamas showing off their fresh, jaguar skin like this.”
