Model Chicago Challenge Social media Art Beauty Love Online Media Hero Support Usa Body positivity Lingerie German Sex Car Germany Representation Beauty standards

A MODEL is fighting back against fatphobia by launching an all-plus-size burlesque troupe. When Carina Shero - known on social media as Unskinny Shero - now 32, first moved from Germany to the USA aged 18, she felt that media representation of larger women like her was lacking. Determined to spread body positivity, she began sharing photos and videos of herself posing in lingerie and figure-hugging outfits online. Her posts have received outpouring support as well as judgment and hate - but she refuses to let trolls bring her down. As part of her mission to challenge beauty standards and show the world that larger bodies can be sexy, too, she co-founded 'The Femme FATales', one of the first all-plus-size burlesque troupes in Chicago.
