In the face of stereotypes: Carol Gracias, Shveta Salve walk the ramp with baby bumps and to-be-moms
Model Carol Gracias and TV star Shveta Salve, who are expecting, walked on the ramp for an event on Mother's Day.
Back off, "perfect bodies"! These moms-to-be have set the ramp on fire like you clearly never can.
Going beyond the boundaries of fashion, Carol Gracias made quite a statement, walking the ramp with a baby bump on the last Lakme Fashion Week last month.
That was just a trailer of what the skincare oil brand Bio-Oil recreated on the Mother's Day. On the day of celebrating the woman who has given us life, Bio-Oil organised a fashion show with Shveta Salve and Carol Gracias along with 12 expecting mothers.
How is it that we celebrate "womanhood" and put that on the pedestal, yet cringe at the mention of seeing a woman with a bump walking the ramp? Not anymore, because Bio-Oil's incredible initiative, #YummiliciousWalk, was quite the retort to the ongoing hypocritical celebration of womanhood.
The fashion show was a sight to behold as each of these women, walked with poise defining a beauty that transcends beyond just the physical attribution of it.
This fashion show was singularly a validation of a more human perception of beauty, celebrating Mother's Day in all of its honesty.
