Eyo-Ephraim told Metro more about her career – and just how important diversity and representation is to her:
“I think it’s incredibly important to start re-defining what is the norm, and start celebrating our individuality.
The modelling world is still so new to me, to see the amazing support and response from a job I did is just incredible, I couldn’t be more grateful to ASOS and Bridge for taking a chance on me and allowing me to show the world that everybody is beautiful, no matter what their shape, size or ethnicity.”
The dark-skinned, plus-sized model is making waves on social media after the initial tweet from a body positive blogger celebrating her went viral.
never seen anybody look more natural and happy and like sunshine whilst modelling a bikini !! ?☀?

I literally added it to my wish list because I needed ASOS to know I was here for this. I’m not buying it but I’m sooooooo here for this model in this bikini!

Ive never , ever seen an ad like this before. I’ve never worn a bikini before because of my body type. This makes me think about trying it. Pretty cool.

One of the reasons I love ASOS…. They even have ASOS Plus for guys. So you see bigger built models. Clothes that actually fit me https://t.co/RPfpLH9gcw
