The size-12 beauty recently made headlines for being the first-ever plus-size model cast in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition. When she's not donning bikinis, Lawley looks stunning on the red carpet. The 6'2" model was blessed with height, and she knows how to complement her curves in all the right ways.

The Selma director, who is a client of celebrity stylists Wayman Bannerman and Micah McDonald, achieves the perfect combination of grace and modernity in her red carpet looks. "It’s good for women to just do trial and error, go somewhere and get a whole bunch of things you think you like, go in the dressing room, really focus, and work it out," her styilists revealed to us. "There are some things you’ll find that will surprise you, like, 'Oh wow, I had no idea this would look this good on me.' You’ve got to get out there and take that risk. Try a whole bunch of styles—you’ll surprise yourself."

The curvy size-12 reality star might seem to play second fiddle to her much-talked about older sister, but Khloe can hold her own in a sartorial battle. The 5'10" beauty regularly proves that she really knows how to flatter her figure in fashion-forward looks, without falling victim to trends that don't work for her.
