Tara Lynn, Plus-Size Model, Graces Elle Spain’s Cover

Tara Lynn, a Seattle-born plus size model, is the covergirl for the November issue of Elle Spain.

The issue discusses "real women," meaning not the waifish models typically put on the cover – Lynn's feature story even translates to 'The Success Of A Real Woman.' Lynn was featured in an editorial spread inside the magazine, shot by Xavi Gordo, as well as Lynn was also featured on Elle Spain's website, modeling the new FW collection for women with curves.

Some are wary of dubbing women who are not as skinny as typical models "real women," saying that it's less inclusive to say that having more curves makes a woman more of a woman than if she's skinny.

Lynn is known best for her "Big Is Beautiful" H&M swimsuit campaign in 2012, and for covering Elle France twice and Vogue Italia, as well as many other international magazines. She has yet to cover a major fashion magazine in the U.S.

Lynn, who is signed with IMG Models, stands at 5'9 and measures 38-34-47. She became well-known after shooting an editorial in the January 2010 issue of V Magazine called "Curves Ahead."
