Outrage over bikini runway show fronted by Playboy model as critics blast swimwear label for casting ‘tiny white women’ and just ONE plus-size model – but supporters say there’s ‘nothing wrong with beautiful ladies’
A swimwear showcase has sparked outraged over the lack of ‘diversity’ among the models.
Beach Bunny presented their latest collection of skimpy swimsuits at Miami Swim Week, an annual swimwear event in Florida, with a video of the event posted online on Friday causing anger among social media users.
The show was fronted by former Playboy model Joy Corrigan who flaunted her lithe and athletic physique on the runway in a series of barely there bikinis.
The 28-year-old shared footage of her catwalk moment to Instagram this week, writing: ‘Pure JOY walking for @beachbunnyswimwear thanks so much for having me again fam’.
Beach Bunny also posted a video from the event to their official Instagram page, showcasing their gorgeous models in an array of revealing swimwear.

Not everyone was happy with what they saw, with many who viewed the clips expressing their disgust.
‘It would be nice to see more realistic body types. One plus size model just doesn’t do it’ complained one person.
‘Two curvy models… groundbreaking’ wrote another disgruntled person in the comments.
‘Wow… a bunch of tiny mostly white women. So much variety’ said one more.
‘Every girl looks similar! It’s insane that you guys hire the same girls every single year instead of changing it up and putting new faces and exotic models in the show’ someone else chimed in.

‘Honestly, you guys will get less views this year for this change it up and watch how relevant you get again’ they added.
‘You need more body types! You only have two types here’ yet one more added in the comments.
Others were impressed by the stunning models, with one saying, ‘Beautiful suits on beautiful ladies’.
Another person agreed: ‘Victoria’s Secret move over. This company has its priorities straight’.
‘It’s crazy to me how a company can’t still target just ‘skinny’ people and have ‘skinny’ models’ reasoned someone else.

‘We get plus size stores and plus size models. We think everything has to be size inclusive but it really doesn’t lol let these ladies have their moment they are gorgeous’ they added.
American swimwear brand Beach Bunny was started by former swimsuit model Angela Chittenden in 2004.
The global brand is stocked all over the world, but it doesn’t come cheap – popular bikini tops from the company come in between $200 and $300 AUD with bottoms sold separately for as much as $400 AUD a piece for the higher end options.
