Ashley Graham’s Little Sister Shows How Hot Post-Partum Bodies Look in a Swimsuit

Since her "controversial" debut as a curvy woman on the cover of Sports Illustrated's annual swimsuit Issue, Ashley Graham's career has taken off like a rocket that has yet to return to Earth. The model and mogul has since done everything from hosting America's Next Top Model to launching her own swimsuit line in collaboration with Swimsuits for All. And although each year Ashley releases a collection that is made for curvy queens, this year with the help of her little sister, she proves they work for "mom-bods" as well.

Ashley's younger sister Abigail appeared in her recent campaign, which was shot by Ben Watts in Punta Cana.

The theme of the shoot centered around "Then and Now," where childhood photos and pictures of this recent trip together show the sisters in all their loving glory. 

"Despite our six-year age difference and busy lifestyles, my little sister and I have always been strong presences in each other's lives," Ashley said in a press release. "We've shared countless memories together and going through our childhood photos was a trip down memory lane. Abigail has always been my rock, and I was honored to have her by my side during this photoshoot. Plus, she's a new mom and has never looked hotter in a swimsuit!"

Abigail, who isn't shy about expressing her love for her big sis, said she's always loved what the super model has done for body positivity.

But with this shoot, Abigail is hoping to push a message of her own. According to YahooStyle, Abigail said in the release, “Remember at one point you were carrying a child, a life, which is incredible in itself, that is miraculous. Know that you’re not alone, in the mix of all of the emotions that come with motherhood, all of these changes to your body are part of a journey you are going through and continue on."

“Don’t feel bad asking for help, there is absolutely nothing wrong with asking for help, I had to ask. My girlfriends had to ask. Many women that I know in general needed help because motherhood is hard so just don’t be afraid of it.”
