At this point, the question is basically "What can't Ashley Graham do?" And not just do, but do incredibly well—from breaking into the modeling business and tearing down every unrealistic standard women are told to measure up to, the woman's a force of nature. Most recently the model, designer, and body activist has been focusing on the latter with a new series, The Ashley Graham Project. But in a Q&A after unveiling the show's first look, Graham may have just revealed that she's taking on the beauty world next.
Nothing is confirmed yet, but when a fan asked what medium or specific project is up next, Graham responded with, "Well, I will tell you, I think that we need cosmetics. I think that we need clothing, I think that we need some cool shoes, all of that. And I think that is something I definitely want to break into in a bigger way, and I think it's going to happen pretty soon." And then she turned her face and showed off a gleaming gold, lustrous highlight. SO. Take from that what you will.
The video's below, in which you can also take in her magnificent, glittery smoky eye, flushed cheeks, and gorgeous pinky-nude lipstick (we clearly went back and scrutinized). It's like the platonic ideal of a sexy look—and we'd expect nothing less, given how above and beyond Graham executes every other aspect of her brand.
The possible reveal happens around 22:10.
It's also worth noting that she's never signed on with a cosmetics brand, as an ambassador, spokesperson, anything. Maybe, just maybe, she had a reason for that. Given how sorely the beauty world is still lacking in women of all sizes in front of the camera, fingers crossed Graham's beauty plans come out soon. (Racking our brains, the only examples we can think of in recent memory are Dove and plus-size models Sabina Karlsson and Marquita Pring starring in a L'Oréal campaign among a group of straight-sized folks, but other that that? Not much.)
