Model Ashley Graham says beauty is "beyond size" and has urged people to "stay loud" to encourage fashion and beauty brands to take more plus-size models on for their campaigns.

The 30-year-old model was thrilled to be the first plus-size model to be cast for a beauty brand and hopes if people "stay loud about it", it will continue, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

Writing for Glamour magazine, she shared: "Beauty is beyond size. If more people get vocal on social media, and more brands and designers put all types of women in their campaigns, it will change how we see beauty. We have to stay loud about it."

Meanwhile, Graham previously claimed her new deal with Revlon marks a "ground-breaking" moment for the fashion industry.
