Top model and the biggest broadcaster of body loving, self-confidence known to women, Ashley Graham is styled by Dara Allen in Balenciaga, Dolce & Gabbana, Fendi, Louis Vuitton, Michael Kors Collection, Prada, Ralph Lauren, Saint Laurent and more. Ethan James Green photographs Graham for the February 2021 issue of WSJ Magazine.
Marisa Meltzer interviews Graham, who gets straight to the point of why women like her.
“My brand is about confidence and owning who you are and being honest with who you are,” she says. “I think that’s incredibly reflective of my Instagram, my YouTube, my podcast. I just wish that I had someone that was as real and honest and open when I was in middle school, high school, moving to New York.”
This is the theme that Ashley Graham asserts over and over about herself — and the heavy lift she’s taken on with women at large. Graham wants women to feel the love in a world that makes it pretty damn difficult for females generally to feel worthy most of the time. Women of color pull an extra-heavy load, and so do women whose size is larger than those featured on fashion runways.
