Ashley Graham
There is no reason to hide and every reason to flaunt.
Ashley Graham
For me, wearing lingerie isn't about anyone else but me. If I dressed for others I would be a miserable person.
Ashley Graham
I always say wear what makes you feel most confident, and confidence doesn't always come over night.
Ashley Graham

Don't let your image, don't let your size, hold you back. If I had let my hips or my jiggly thighs hold me back or the fact that I've got these big heavy breasts, then I would not be where I am today.
Ashley Graham
Since I first started playing basketball, I have just loved it, and nothing has ever made me lose that love.
Ashley Graham
I know my curves are sexy and I want everyone else to know that theirs are too. There is no reason to hide and every reason to flaunt.

I'm going to be pulling my pants up all day, and I'm just going to have a terrible day. Because if your clothes don't fit, just like bras or anything, it's not a good day.
Ashley Graham
It doesn't matter if you're a size 2 or 22, you can be healthy as long as you're taking care of your body, working out, and telling yourself 'I love you' instead of taking in the negativity of beauty standards.
Ashley Graham
For me, I don't do nip or bush. I won't do it. And that's because I talk to numerous young women in high school and I talk to them about owning who they are, and not giving up their sexuality because they have to.
Ashley Graham
As a model, I'm used to having my body scrutinized, and I have a tough skin so I can shake it off. I know I'm the only person that gets to decide how my body should look.
Ashley Graham
I don't want women to hold themselves back. I think there are too many women who are self-conscious about the way they look - the way they see themselves in the mirror.
Ashley Graham
If a plus-size woman is not represented in fashion or on TV, what the hell are we doing?
Ashley Graham
Basketball really is a metaphor for life - the intangible skills I have learned on the court, have helped shape the person I am today.
Ashley Graham
College basketball was one of the hardest, most rewarding experiences of my life. Every single day on the court was a mental and physical challenge.
Ashley Graham
We're seeing more inclusivity in fashion when it comes to size, and we have to continue featuring more and more diversity.
Ashley Graham
It's really important that we stop body shaming people online and on social media. The rude comments under pictures, comparing women in who looks better posts - all that does is force us to judge each other. It only sets us back and women, now more than ever, need to empower each other.
