Title: Where can I find photos like this?
Post by: sweetgirll on September 21, 2009, 00:07

Hi,
I've been looking for some photos of curvy woman and I can't find it.

I was looking for plus size women wearing t shirts to use as mockup for a tshirt site and showing fashion poses like these:

Maybe I can't find because I"m using the wrong keywords?
what keywords should I use besides plus size, or curvy?

Maybe try voluptuous.

Or Zaftig  ;)

But I found that on IS the keyword 'overweight' brought more results:

Woman, overweight, large build, t-shirt seems to bring up a reasonable selection on iStock

A common term is BBW which stands for big beautiful woman I think. Not sure if you'll find it used on a stock site though.

I'm afraid it doesnt stand for that. It's either Big Bodied Woman or Big Breasted Woman.

Several of the photos given as examples have links to lightboxes in their descriptions. Also, a lightbox search found a lightbox that Lisa put together.

You could have a look at my collection on DT. Maybe it has something you can use.
