Rubenesque Barbara Brickner Happier Now With the Industry

At first unwilling, plus size Barbara Brickner is now recognized as the original big beautiful woman of the fashion industry. Before her exposure in the runway business, the celebrity had wanted to become a singer gearing toward country and Christian music. But her calling was in the modeling, and she so loved it there that she actually launched her own line of plus-size maternity clothing, BB Maternity.

Though very little is known about this zaftig celebrity, her career has actually spanned more than 10 years, and she is an admitted favorite of many magazines that feature full-figured women. While she has had her share of the challenges of being plus-size, Barbara Brickner is happier now that the industry, media and the world is currently more open to the idea of “big is beautiful,” and even prouder knowing that she has become a part of effecting that change.
