Well, this is certainly a step in the right direction.

IMG Models has signed on five new models to its label. Not stunning news for a modeling agency, except -- all five of the girls are plus-size.

The modeling industry has seen a surge of body diversity in recent years, with top plus-size models landing magazine covers and even an entire fashion week devoted to curvier figures . Other smaller agencies have attempted to blur the size lines before, but this development of yielding plus and straight sized models together is a huge move for IMG, whose famous roster includes the likes of Gisele Bundchen and Kate Moss.

In an interview with Cosmopolitan , Senior Vice President and Managing Director Ivan Bart explains their plan to become "an ageless, raceless, weightless agency," adding what these five new additions mean for IMG:

"With this new way of thinking, I can tell women who work so hard to get into the sample size, 'Eat! Be yourself, just be the best you can be -- exactly how you are!' For us, as long as the talent is at a healthy weight that he or she and his or her doctor believe is right for them, and they're exercising, since that's a healthy way of life, then the industry should reflect that."

Sounds good to us. Meet the fresh, new faces of plus-size:

Ashley Graham
After her curves caused a Lane Bryant ad to be pulled from the Super Bowl , Ashley Graham went on to be named "Plus-Size Model of the Year" by Full Figured Fashion Week in 2012 as well as one of Complex Magazine's "10 Hottest Plus-Size Fashion Models" that same year.
