The Influencer Who Redefines Beauty Standards

Stop the diktats of thinness…

Many of them become anxious as soon as they gain a few extra pounds, often feeling guilty about having devoured that last piece of cake. Suffice to say that wearing a bikini can quickly become a horrible ordeal for all these women, self-conscious to death, who hide behind their sarong or impose a drastic diet before going to the beach. At the opposite end of this collective frustration, Brazilian Carla Thais has chosen to embrace her excess pounds and reconcile with her body. There is no question of hiding, on the contrary, she embraces her excess weight with pride. She loves its shapes and even uses them at will. It has become a bit of its business, its signature, its charming asset.

His fight ? Fight against the aesthetic standards imposed by the fashion and beauty industry. The young woman has always understood that, behind this industry, lies a subliminal message which tends to enslave women. Where the dictates of beauty reign, there also reigns the quest for an ideal of perfection which does not exist. However, the two pillars that support this entire industry are none other than youth and thinness. Carla refuses to be a puppet by following this toxic and unhealthy ideology to the letter. There is no question of adhering to these standards which make women believe that one must be young and thin to appear beautiful and attractive. Fortunately, she is not the only one to have this awareness. In recent years, many celebrities have begun to resist classic standards of beauty, proudly displaying their luscious and sensual shapes, like the singer Lizzo or the model Ashley Graham. This has even pushed major luxury brands to revise their criteria to gradually ban discrimination and introduce more inclusiveness into their policy. It must also be said that these days, catwalks and magazines no longer rule the roost. Social media has now become an alternative landscape, with its own rules, clearly shaking things up.

On Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat or Tik Tok, more and more “strong” women are revealing their shapes without complexes. If some are sometimes exasperated, even disturbed, by the toxic concept of “body shaming” (a cruel practice which consists of humiliating and making fun of a person), Carla no longer pays attention to haters or negative comments on her body. On her Instagram account, the Brazilian describes herself as part of the movement “ activism for the obese “. Comfortable in her skin and in her head, the young woman does not hesitate to celebrate her voluptuous shapes by regularly publishing photos of them in sexy outfits or in swimsuits. She thus displays her enormous self-confidence, proving to the world that she loves her curves and that she is proud of her figure. A fervent follower of the “body positive” concept, she advocates self-acceptance for better self-esteem. And, too bad, if it doesn’t please everyone!

At 32, this young mother wants to show her followers that she can be happy, even if she does not have the “ideal” body and even if she does not meet the criteria imposed by fashion designers. So yes, she has tons of bulges and cellulite everywhere, but when you love your figure, you no longer spend your time focusing on your flaws and imperfections. One of her recent publications proves it: we see her wearing a pretty bikini that sticks to her skin. Why would the thong be exclusively reserved for thin women whose buttocks are very firm? Too bad if hers are flabby, if her stomach is plump and if her skin hangs here and there… she has now gotten used to her body and she likes it as it is.
