Beauty comes in all shapes and sizes—just ask Barbara Bang! The fresh-faced chinita is the winner of this year's SM Ladies' Fashion Plus Size Model Search, and she's proving that you don't need to be a certain size to look and feel gorgeous.

Blessed with a voluptuous body? Make like Barbara and embrace your curves! Here are her top tips for dressing a full figure:

1. EMBRACE YOUR SHAPE
"You will not be happy until you accept who you really are. You can't be anybody else. That's what makes me happy and confident—learning to accept myself for who I am."

2. WEAR THE RIGHT SIZE
"It doesn't matter if you're an XL or XXL. If it fits you, it will enhance your body. If you wear something too tight, it will not enhance your curves. Wear your size."

3. TAKE RISKS
"Don't be afraid to experiment. Use colors and different clothes. Just because you're big doesn't mean you can't wear sexy clothes. Do it accordingly and appropriately."

4. EXPERIMENT WITH COLOR
"You don't have to wear black because it's slimming. Mix black with different colors."
