Winnie Harlow
Though she grew up being bullied because of the vitiligo that causes her partial depigmentation, Harlow nevertheless showcased her skin condition on an Insta account that caught the eye of Tyra Banks back in 2014. Fast-forward a few years later following her days on Banks' "America's Next Top Model," a stint as an official brand rep for Desigual and countless fashion mag features, and we're just as much captivated with the model's body positive head-to-toe shots as we are with the jet set lifestyle she shares on the account that started it all.

Next time you're feeling self-conscious about those freckles or sunspots that dot your face, head over to this 19-year-old model's IG. Mitchell credits her fabulously freckled face -- and online haters who compared her to a spot-covered banana -- with helping her land a contract with Ford Models. "people making fun of my banana freckles turned into a modeling career, thanks if you've ever said anything good or bad it worked in my favor [SIC]," she tweeted shortly after signing with the powerhouse agency. That's one surefire way to silence your critics.

Diandra Forrest
Diandra Forrest is an albino model with no shortage of glamorous shots featuring fab fashions and oh-so-fierce beauty looks. And while the 27-year-old is dedicated to ending the discrimination that many Albinos face -- she takes the time to educate her followers on their struggles -- she's also dedicated to ending exclusionary body shaming of any kind. "Sad to think it's OK to tell women they need to do with their bodies," wrote Forrest following comments that she was too thin after giving birth to her daughter. We'll second that opinion and keep following Forrest and others like her, who are redefining rigid beauty standards.
