Once a promoter of the super skinny frame, ex-catwalk queen Tyra Banks is now turning her back on stick-thin models.

Inspired by French designer Jean-Paul Gaultier’s decision to open one of his recent fashion shows with a larger-than-life model, Banks’ daytime talk show hosted a contest for plus-size beauties on 29 Nov 06.

The retired supermodel asked plus-size models to shed their inhibitions and strut their stuff.
