Making it as a plus size male model, with Raul Samuel - Episode 10
“Where are the plus size male models?” It’s a question the Internet seemed to be asking just a few years ago. Now, a six-pack is no longer a prerequisite to grace the pages of the top fashion magazines. It’s proof, says my guest, Raul Samuel, that there's demand for more realistic-looking models. Still, as we discuss in the interview, not everyone in the fashion industry is convinced.
Some of the topics we cover in this conversation:
- Why the fashion industry has been slow to accept plus size male models
- What Raul has learned about body confidence since becoming a model
- The changes he’d like to see in the fashion industry
- Raul's favourite brands and tips for how to look good at any size
