Kate Dillon Levin
Kate Dillon started modeling at an early age, but unlike the other girls featured here, she started out as a traditional model with perfect measurements. In interviews, she revealed that maintaining a slim figure was a huge effort for her and genetics did not favor her.
She was forced to follow an extreme diet, often eating only vegetables and one apple a day, which eventually led to her exhaustion and collapse. Later, however, she discovered the world of plus size modeling and got the opportunity to work for the Gucci brand.
She is also exceptionally well-educated, with two bachelor’s degrees in political science and international relations and a master’s degree in international development from Harvard University.
