More quotes by Ashley Graham
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
For me, wearing lingerie isn't about anyone else but me. If I dressed for others I would be a miserable person.
Ashley Graham
Love yourself. Be proud of who you are.
Ashley Graham
There is no reason to hide and every reason to flaunt.
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.

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.

Christie Brinkley told me that I needed to become a movie star because I have that something, and then we actually just became friends on set. She has such a young spirit, and is so vivacious. It was such a fun, fun shoot.

Embracing uniqueness and showcasing the beauty of our differences is what I am all about so the fact that my words and image can impact positive change is a perk of this job I never expected I would have.
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
Everyone wants to be an expert on social media and share their opinion behind the keyboard.
Ashley Graham
I feel like we have to have [plus size models] as soon as possible. We're the norm. We're the majority.
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
It's just amazing to be a part of something that you so strongly agree with.
Ashley Graham
I always say wear what makes you feel most confident, and confidence doesn't always come over night.
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.
Ashley Graham
I am always being asked to gain or lose weight, but I am at a point now where I don't care anymore. I love my body, I love my super-hourglass shape and I love showing it off.
Ashley Graham
Growing up I didn't have curvy role models, mainly because I didn't see enough curvy women represented in major ads.
Ashley Graham
Since I first started playing basketball, I have just loved it, and nothing has ever made me lose that love.
