"We believe size or colour doesn’t limit us as models or as women," Desseaux continued. "We believe all body shapes and ethnicities deserve to be represented in fashion and in the media, helping girls worldwide feel positive and confident about themselves."

Indeed, the need for more body diversity is something that's been backed up by scientific research. Researchers at Durham University found that using models who are more representative of the "actual population" could help girls and women develop a healthier attitude toward eating.

Desseaux says the project intends to highlight "the idea that all women are more similar than we’re made out to think". "We all have physical flaws and imperfections, and that does not make us more or less beautiful," says Desseaux. "Rather than retouching or shying away from them, we should embrace them."Our physical attributes do not define us as women; our strength and character does. All of this make us all women."
