Barbara Palvin Has Gained Weight
First of all I’ve never really been into Barbara Palvin. I think she has a pretty face, but I don’t get the fascination – her look is very ordinary and commercial to me. And, I’ve never thought her body to be great: she’s short and curvy, which is obviously not my thing.
On the recent post about Lindsay Lohan looking fat in Playboy, commenter Irene asked if I’d maybe do a post about Barbara’s weight gain. So, I did a little research and whoa – Irene is right, Barbara has definitely packed on the pounds!
Let’s have a look.
First, here’s a set of pictures from the past couple of years. [Click the pic to view the set.]
OK, not awesome thinspo or anything, but still an OK body for a mainstream fashion model.
Now, let’s take a look at another set, these much more recent: [Click the pic to view the set.]
Wow, I see a big difference – I’m guessing she put on at least 10-15 lbs over the last couple months.. and based on a few of those recent pictures, I’d say I’m being generous!
I think she’s been doing a little too much of this:
Looks like Barbara’s busted! What do you gurls think?
Discuss this article – and cast your vote – in the new Skinny Gossip forums!
As I’ve said earlier in th Lindsay post, even Barbara Palvin thought she looked fat in those VS pictures. She said it on Twitter. (Someone told her she looked sexy in those VS pics and Barbara said she didn’t like them because she looked fat in them.)
Hey! Has anyone had success in using a hula hoop for a better stomach? I’ve read around online that its great but we on here do have a diFferent take on ‘great’. I don’t want to EVER have big muscley abs. I am petite and want the tiny, tight look. Any suggestions? Crunches and reverse crunches tend to bulk my abs.
Luv you guys, but please take off-topic comments (i.e. not related to the post) to the forum. Thanks & see you there.
Barbara is fairly young, and probably just went through that time in puberty where girl’s bodies just start to store more weight. Give her time, she’ll lose it. I’m worried though about mentioning her on this site, due to the fact that on Twitter, she’s expressed unhappiness with her body before (when she was much thinner).
I think she looks absolutely wonderful and not fat at all. It’s finally nice to see someone in the fashion world that is curvier than most stick thin models. In no means is she fat or curvy, but compared to other grossly skinny models, she is considered ‘curvy’.
I agree with katie. I think she looks great and yes, she is curvier than other models (in the second picture) but her shape is perfect with healthy weight too. i think thats why she is a pefect model. If other models put on some weight their shape became deformed and ugly. and thats why they keep on loosing weight and become extremely skinny.
One word: puberty! It got me pretty hard, like – I got fat almost overnight, and it was REALLY hard to shift. Maybe alcohol, too. shes 18 now.
I think she looks gorgeous with or without the weight. No where near being a fatty!
maybe a little… but it sorta seems to me that she’s just pear shaped. All the recent ones show he legs completely bare. Her top half seems about the same.
BUSTED
She’s not fat! She has a lovely figure and looks a million times better than most of the stick thin models you see today!! She has a beautiful figure and I personally think she looks better in the second set of photographs. Anyone who would call that ‘fat’ is crazy.
I absolutely adore her, and I just think this proves that you dont have to be a skeleton to be succesful, shes beautiful, and there is nothing wrong with her size anyway, she has an incredible body, theres no need to be nasty.
I think this article is absolutely ridiculous. Is that what you call short and curvy? She has an amazing body and is far from being fat or not skinny. Now I don’t even care for defending her, I just think you should realize that your opinion of what thin is is distorted.
Sorry, but she has gotten fat. Sad. Super skinny is a much better look for every woman–especially models. She will not be working for long if she does not lose the weight.
You should do a post on Lily Cole’s weight gain! Can anyone say THUNDER THIGHS?
Seriously yeah! Did you see this?

I have two guesses as to why she’s gotten away with this:
1) She’s hit a late stage in puberty and inherited some hips, legs, and a tummy. She probably needs to work harder than she used to to keep off the inches since her biology seems to be working against her.
2) (more likely) Her agency recognized her rather commercial appearance and decided to run with it. Which means they’re going to try to appeal to a wider audience, i.e. men. She’ll be a star among guys that like generic, fertility-goddess looking women.
Either way, her high fashion days are seriously numbered if she doesn’t get her old body back.
