Bishamber Das:
The first British Asian plus-size model and has contributed immensely to the plus size industry in the US and UK. The first plus size model to win a title at the international Miss India Europe competition in 2014.
Her aim is to reach out to every woman around the world despite what size or walk of life she is from to empower her. Bishamber has her own ways of doing this and the recent initiative was a video which featured her singing Hadiqa Kiani’s popular song Buhe Baarian. Shot by Real Artz, this one showcases Bishamber as a rural Punjaban who is day dreaming about her lover (played by Harpal Josan) while performing her daily chores.
Her advice for the budding and upcoming plus size models “My advice is simple, find your plus point and make this your strength. I came from a community were my vision was and still is at times frowned upon. I made it my mission to change this outlook and bring positivity to the concept of plus size. till this day plus size women in middle eastern and south asian media are only seen in comedy roles were they are laughed at and made fun off. through my work I hope to change this concept and see more plus size women in media with the respect and dignity they deserve.” To learn more about her life, diet & fitness routine check out her interview on Women Fitness at
