Carina Behrens

[HSG]

<br>Fans of gorgeous plus-size model Sophie Sheppard were thrilled with her <a href="http://www.judgmentofparis.com/board/showthread.php?t=2415" target="_blank">campaign</a> for Penningtons earlier this year, which yielded so many stunning images.

Many viewers also took note of a curvaceous brunette who joined Sophie in a number of the images, such as the following.<p><center><a href="http://www.judgmentofparis.com/ss/penningtons13.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.judgmentofparis.com/ss/penningtons13a.jpg" border="0" title="Click to enlarge" alt="Click to enlarge"></a></center><p>That model's name is Carina Behrens, a U.S. size 16/18, who is represented by <a href="http://www.hughesmodels.co.uk/14+DIVISION/Carina.html" target="_blank">Hughes Models</a>, London, and <a href="http://www.brigittemodels.com/detail.php?id=157&go=10&g=3&end=10&buchstabe=A&lang=e&wer=18" target="_blank">Brigitte Models</a>, Munich, and whose stats run an impressive 42-34.5-<strong>50</strong>.

Interested readers may click on the above links to see a number of images from Carina's current portfolios, but the model particularly earns a mention here for a forthcoming swimwear publication from the French label Ma Grande Taille which is sure to put her on the map.

Two preview images have thus far been released, including the following breathtaking photograph.<p><center><a href="http://www.judgmentofparis.com/forum/cb/carina01.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.judgmentofparis.com/forum/cb/carina01a.jpg" border="0" title="Click to enlarge" alt="Click to enlarge"></a></center><p>The remarkably size-positive photograph celebrates Carina's voluptuousness in a gorgeous purple swimsuit.<p><center><a href="http://www.judgmentofparis.com/forum/cb/carina01.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.judgmentofparis.com/forum/cb/carina01b.jpg" border="0" title="Click to enlarge" alt="Click to enlarge"></a></center><p>A second preview picture shows off her full, womanly thighs.<p><center><a href="http://www.judgmentofparis.com/forum/cb/carina02.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.judgmentofparis.com/forum/cb/carina02a.jpg" border="0" title="Click to enlarge" alt="Click to enlarge"></a></center><p>Fans eagerly look forward to the complete publication, which should debut in the forthcoming week. And if these images are any indication, Miss Behrens will be a talent to watch.

Ma Grande Taille has now released the rest of the images featuring Carina Behrens. They appear in a post on the brand's Web site:

http://www.ma-grande-taille.com/shoting-photo-maillot-de-bain-grande-taille-ete-2012-les-photos-et-les-adresses-58436

They're quite size-positive and well photographed. The lush, natural backdrop enhances the appeal of this photograph.

Many show the model in recumbent positions, which are always attractive.

Carina's visibly full arms and thighs make this an admirably pro-curvy publication.

Generous decolletage and soft, shapely legs.

All labels should use true plus-size models (size 16/18 and up) when shooting swimwear.

Altogether an excellent project, and very size-celebratory.

Beautiful, brunette Carina paired well with lovely, blonde sensation Sophie Sheppard in the Penningtons campaign. I'm happy to see that Carina has not gone unnoticed. Her lush contours are a satisfying representation of how beguiling a size 16/18 beauty can be.
