Ashley Graham read “Early 2000s” fashion and interpreted it as “wear your freakum dress.” The plus-size model showed off her style at Tori Kelly’s 30th birthday bash, and we love the fashion.
Graham previously wore the gold printed dress on her 35th birthday but didn’t share it with her 19.5 million Instagram followers. The only they saw was her bright red lipstick courtesy of Revlon makeup.
However, thanks to Tori Kelly, we got a full view of the s**y gold dress about two weeks later.
P.S. Perks of keeping private moments off Instagram include wearing your freakum dress twice!
The Freakum Dress
Graham’s birthday dress was a backless mini style with leather harnesses holding the cowl neck bodice up. It had an asymmetrical skirt showing off her thick thighs and shiny pointed-toe stiletto boots.
The model wore her black hair in a sleek bun with loose tips and blunt tendrils on the front while she accessorized lightly with rings and earrings. Instead of the red lippie Graham used for her birthday, she chose a muted n**e shade for Tori Kelly’s party.
The remaining slides in her picture carousel included videos from the party and a cameo from the birthday girl.
A Body Positivity Activist
Graham isn’t afraid to show off her curves which makes her famous. The plus-size model always preached body positivity and has clapbacks for days against internet trolls. During TIME ‘s Person of the Year Gala, she showed up in a black see-through dress.
The gown had a net overlay peppered with shiny crystals and two-piece underwear. The model added black tights to her ensemble for extra pizazz, while the top had a hood over her sleek hairstyle.
Being A Halloween Celebrant
Graham shared a sweet story about her birthday on Oct. 30, as she turned 35. It’s no surprise that a nurse dressed as an alien attended to her mother since she’s a Halloween celebrant.
She revealed that her mother pushed her out at 2:00 pm after twelve hours of labor.
The model multitasked by dressing up for dinner with her husband, Justin Ervin, in 35 seconds! Needless to say, she only got through her red Revlon lipstick before the alarm rang.
A Versatile Fashion Icon
Graham attended the CFDA Fashion Awards presented by Amazon Fashion as an Instagram guest a few days after her birthday. The model wore a brown shirt dress from Peter Do paired with wedge sandals. She’s proven severally that her fashion style is versatile, which makes her an icon to many people.
