Nike lauded for use of plus-sized models
Nike has received praise for its use of two pictures featuring plus-sized models to advertise sports bras. The pictures were posted on @NikeWomen, which is followed by 4.8m people, and received 70,500 and 61,000 likes respectively, as well as hundreds of positive comments. In February, the fashion brand Forever 21 was criticised for launching a “Forever 21 Plus” Instagram account which failed to use any plus-sized models.

Nike is basking in positivity over body-positive pictures it has recently posted on Instagram.

The reason is because the activewear brand have uploaded two pictures with plus-sized models wearing Nike sports bras. The theme is titled “Welcome to Sports Bra 101” and is aimed telling women how sports bras should fit.
