Two body positive bloggers, Michelle Elman and Amy Wooldridge, took to Instagram to ask Disney to start diversifying the bodies we see with a photoshoot portraying plus size versions of a few Disney Princesses. 

According to Refinery29, 
​Wooldridge wrote, "In all honesty, I’m tired of seeing the same bodies represented again and again". Adding, "It’s time we had a fat princess. A princess with scars. A trans princess. A princess with a disability. A princess that hasn’t had her body drawn from the same stencil as all the others."

Elman agrees. "Alongside size diversity, we also need to be seeing more intersectionality when it comes to race, gender, sexual orientation, and ability," she told Refinery29. "I think a plus princess would be great progress to advance the acceptance of all bodies and prove that beauty comes in all shapes and sizes and will help fight this appearance-based culture that we live in."
