Christian Louboutin has finally tapped its first plus size model

Smashing beauty standards out of the park.

Clementine Desseaux is the plus size model smashing beauty standards out of the park right now.

She has just been named the face of Christian Louboutin’s new lipstick line, making fashion history in a first for the label.

“The beauty norm is changing and differences that used to be weaknesses are now turning into strengths,” Desseaux told the Daily Mail.

“Being curvy and freckly was never easy back when I was in France. Now, beauty is changing and brands are putting girls that are different in the spotlight. They are opening up to all the beauty that is in the world and not only the European, blond, skinny, white-woman type.”

This is the first time the French fashion house has used a plus size model in their campaigns.

“France has always been late in terms of diversity but this is one little step forward.”

The French-born beauty always felt out of place in Paris before she moved to New York, where she’s been owning the fashion game ever since.
