It was then put to a public vote.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe set out to find the new face of Ann Summers. You voted in your thousands. You have spoken, and the results are in. The brand new face of our new brand is&#8230; Lucy Moore!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And indeed people did vote in their thousands, with 20 year old Moore receiving an impressive 22 percent of the 30,000 votes cast. So what makes Moore the public\u2019s favourite? Well, given that she\u2019s the only plus-size woman to be put through to the final, we\u2019re guessing curves are her USP, proving yet again that the public love a real and relatable model.<\/p>\n<p>Lingerie lover Moore is a Criminal Justice student who entered the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.modelsdirect.com\/become-a-model\" target=\"_blank\">model search<\/a> without knowing where it would take her.<\/p>\n<p>The curvaceous size 16,\u00a0seen above modelling Ann Summers&#8217; Elise lingerie, told MailOnline: \u201cAt school I was the biggest girl in my group of friends, so I avoided being teased by being fun and bubbly. Now all of my course mates at university have seen me in my underwear. It&#8217;s a bit weird.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The plus-size beauty added: \u201cThis has been one of the most exciting things to happen to me and I couldn\u2019t believe I made it into a national modelling competition and have now won; it is beyond anything I could have imagined.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI want to represent women with a curvier figure and show them that you can be sexy no matter what your size or shape.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to Ann Summers, Moore is \u201cconfident yet modest\u201d and \u201cstrong and sexy\u201d, and that their new face understands that sexy is not worrying about yourself and what others think about you.<\/p>\n<p>The team at Models Direct all agree that Moore looks stunning in her shots, but what do you think of the winner?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Back in November last year, Ann Summers followed in the footsteps of Ultimo and launched a \u2018real woman\u2019 modelling competition to find the new face of its Valentine&#8217;s Day campaign.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[54,7],"tags":[1591,1592,647,677,279,597,722],"class_list":["post-5567","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-fashion","category-models","tag-ann-summers","tag-jacqueline-gold","tag-lingerie-modelling","tag-modelling-competitions","tag-plus-sized-models","tag-real-models","tag-ultimo"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Plus-Size Model Wins Ann Summers&#039;
