Ashley Graham is on the new cover of ELLE but she looks even better unretouched.

Ashley Graham is on the October cover of Elle Canada and she looks amazing, but if the photos look a little familiar it’s because a while ago she circulated the same photos un-retouched on her Instagram.

“Someone once told me my thighs were ‘cellulite city’,” she captioned the collage of snaps. “But I now realise these thighs tell a story of victory and courage. I will not let others dictate what they think my body should look like for their own comfort, and neither should you. #beautybeyondsize #effyourbeautystandards.”

In the October issue of Elle, the magazine writes about this post, commending her for her message.
