Plan B Forum

An advert for plus-size bras has been banned on American television because it is thought to be too raunchy for viewers.

Network executives pulled the commercial starring full-figured model Ashley Graham over fears that it was revealing just too much cleavage. Plus-size lingerie firm Lane Bryant was planning to air the advert this week during a break in Dancing With The Stars. But ABC network chiefs refused to screen it, sparking claims that they were discriminating against larger models.

A source at Lane Bryant said: 'The cleavage of the plus-size model, they said, was excessive, and we don't think that's the case.

'Our new commercials represent the sensuality of the curvy woman who has more to show the world than the typical waif-like lingerie model. 'What we didn't know was that the networks, which regularly run Victoria's Secret and Playtex advertising on the very shows from which we're restricted, would object to a different view of beauty.'

A Fox spokesman insisted: 'We didn't treat them any differently than Victoria's Secret.'

ABC declined to comment.
