Since competing on America's Next Top Model, Winnie Harlow has made a name for herself in the fashion world. Along with walking countless runways, nabbing campaigns for Diesel, Desigual and Nike, and making an appearance in Beyoncé's Lemonade, the model has also been outspoken about her vitiligo, a condition that causes the loss of skin color in patches.
Continuing in promoting body-positivity, Harlow took to Instagram today to share a naked selfie celebrating her skin. Posing in nothing but a thong and silver hoop earrings, she shared an empowering message, "the real difference isn't my skin. It's the fact that I don't find my beauty in the opinions of others. I'm beautiful because I know it. Celebrate Your unique beauty today (& everyday)!"
The naked photo is just the latest in Harlow's outspoken body-positive activism. Earlier this month, the 23-year-old model spoke to BAZAAR UK about her new Burt's Bees beauty campaign saying, "Humans, like flowers, come in so many ranges; colors, heights and sizes, for example. None of those differences makes one flower or human better or more beautiful. It's the differences that make us all beautiful."
