  IGIGI,  provider of contemporary collections in sizes 14-32 designed to fulfill the lifestyle of the beautiful, voluptuous, and confident woman, is excited to announce the final winner of the national model search the company launched in November 2006. A native of Bakersfield, CA and single mother of a three-year-old daughter, Brittany has become a plus-size model with a goal to show young women how beautiful they are, regardless of shape and size. Brittany’s prizes from IGIGI include participation in a company photo shoot along with professional plus-size models, $1000 gift certificate and books from leading plus-size authors. Other major prizes include a possible modeling agency contract from a reputable modeling agency, $1000 goodies package from Catherine Schuller, creator and producer of 14+ on Sixth, and participation in a fashion show organized by DeVoe Signature Events.

“When I found out I was the IGIGI model search final winner, I was shocked! I could not believe I had won with such an amazing group of women,” said Brittany Bird. “I’m truly honored and I can’t wait to work it with the IGIGI crew for the shoot.”

As a provider of collections in sizes 14-32, IGIGI has always been very conscious of using models that are truly representative of the curvaceous beauty out there in the community. The company has run model searches for the last few years with a goal to scout fresh faces from among aspiring as well as professional models that identify with the IGIGI woman.

“We are thrilled to choose Brittany as the final winner,” said Yuliya Zeltser, IGIGI Founder and Designer. “The response from the community to the model search program has been amazing. It has been an extremely exciting 12 months as we received hundreds of applications from gorgeous aspiring and professional models every month. All these beautiful, voluptuous, and sexy models have made it quite difficult for us to choose a single winner every month. Brittany is our final winner as we feel she represents the beautiful, voluptuous, and confident IGIGI woman and can relate to our customers the best way.”
