We have the full support of Chloe Marshall, a size 16 model, who made it through to the Miss England 2008 final, after being crowned ‘Miss Surrey’. 5ft 10in Chloe said “ I am really excited to be supporting a heat that will reassure girls out there that you do not have to be tall and skinny to be considered beautiful”
