Ferreira, a self-described "curve" model, represents body type scarcely shown in the fashion industry: her measurements aren't that of a traditional straight- or plus-size model.

Aerie announced in January 2014 that it would no longer be retouching its models, and it seems to have delivered on that promise. However, the company has been critiqued for continuing to show exclusively model-thin bodies.
Which makes the "Real Talk with Barbie" video such a game-changer.
