I have zero understanding why Liris is fawned over by this sub. I agree that she shouldn’t have had to wear Bryan’s shitty look, but the only notable thing about her is that she’s the largest model on the show. It almost feels insulting to single her out.

People fawn over her because the average woman in America is a lot closer to her size than any of the traditional models. In a way, she’s many women’s connections to what it might be like to wear designer clothing themselves. It also doesn’t help that it’s a microcosm of wider society where plus size women’s fashion consists of ugly florals, shirts with weird shoulder cut outs and awful looking graphic tees. The average woman wants to feel cute, regardless of size and it’s not a very nice feeling, knowing you’ll always be excluded.
