When it comes to body shaming plus-sized people, we should all take an example from Sara Petty - the girl who doesn't care what mean people say about her body image.

After noticing lots of tweets (not to her directly) saying that the beauty standards do not allow women over 200 pounds or those with curvy bodies to wear some clothes, Petty decided to make a statement and do the exact opposite. Even though body-shamers said women over 200 pounds shouldn't wear any revealing clothes, including leggings, crop tops, bikinis, and booty shorts, Petty wore is all and tweeted pics with the caption: "Girls: Wear whatever the hell you want." And you know what? She looked freakin' beautiful in every single outfit! Petty's tweet has gone viral since with over 119k likes, 103k retweets, and tons of people sending messages of support, and thanks for sharing some body positivity.

If you are trying to fit your a*s, fat or not, into a crop top, you are wearing it wrong.

What I find extra rude is that people won't make a racist slur, but it's fine to body-shame people who are fatter or thinner than themselves

I'm sorry but these people that write these comments should be hugely embarrassed. To actually write such stupid, nasty things...we women should be sticking together, not telling women what or what not to wear...shame on these sad sad trolls that clearly have their own body issues. This girl looks beautiful in all outfits! You go girl!

That's their opinion and I am going to respect it, which is more than they do to this girl. Let's everyone wear what they like and we all will be much happier. I'm worried about this world: why is it so difficult to be nice????

You shouldn't be putting your a*s in a top, maybe that's why it looked so gross on you, Audra

Caitlyn, I don't understand your comment. I took another look at her photos and I don't see where she is "wearing a shirt as pants"?

I don't think she looks that bad in any of the things in these pictures. Oh, Audra, you don't put your a*s in a crop top! If a person is comfortable in their own skin, who's right in telling someone what she should wear. Granted, I've seen big women dress "scary" ugly and immodest. If you obsess over what other people wear, don't look at them and get a life!

If someone feels beautiful, then why would you make them feel bad and rain on their parade?

what'swrong with these negative commenters? regardless of weight, people can wear a burlap , potato sack or whatever they want to wear and it's the wearer's business. that's one of the perks of living in a free country

Funny thing, this girl is not fat. She is a bit overweight by societal standards but, again, not fat. There is a difference is this young lady wearing tight fitting clothes and Mama June (when she was obese) wearing the same. Morbidly fat/obese is gross in a crop top/yoga pants/booty shorts whereas this girl looks fine.

People are pretty full of themselves, eh. I would never tell another person what to wear. Hopefully I am a bit kinder than that.

Actually "you're" is correct, i.e. if you are (you're)...."your" is used for possession, for example "it's your mistake" :)

The deciding factor should include height as well as weight. At 5 ft 4 inches/203# I never looked this good! She must be 6 feet tall!

I think she's gorgeous, beautiful and attractive, I would definitely be attracted and interested in her, in the words of Meghan Trainor: "You know I won't be no stick-figure, silicone Barbie doll, So, if that's what's you're into Then go ahead and move along"

The breathtaking arrogance of these follow-the-number dweebs is truly jarring. Also, I agree, the grammatical/spelling errors show these pea-brains for the imbeciles they are. If ignorance is bliss, they are blessed. It must be surreal to be so stupid you have nothing better to think about.

This girl looks fine, it's the women who are obese that are the ones who I think they are talking about. You know, the ones that roll along as they walk, carrying more like 300+ lbs. with an apron of flesh hanging.
