She has also been very open about her journey to becoming a plus-size model, and the dangers of abuse in the industry.
"I am one of the lucky ones... The young me on the left entering into the model industry at 13, survived.
16 years later and I have heard far too many stories of sexual, physical and mental abuse within the fashion industry," she wrote.
Unfortunately, she's had to deal with her share of internet trolls.

Like the time someone told her to fix her "vag" before posting her latest photo.
She even shared a post talking about her "lil back rolls and thick thighs and cel-u-lit."

"You inspire me so much specially now that I’m going through a hard situation about how I see myself," one fan wrote. "Thank u for all!"
"More to love @iskra keep motivating and inspiring others," one fan wrote.
"You're truly a role model for everyone. It's about time we all embrace the nature beauty we all have. No more retouching photos to please the public. Thank you for being you and sharing yourself with us all #bodypositive," another said.
Recently, Iskra revealed that she's expecting her first child!
But don't expect a gender reveal from her.

"I am really struggling...thought I’d feel so ready to do a gender reveal. I was already indecisive about whether I wanted to know, and I’m so happy we did and we shared the moment with my dad and mom on FaceTime our close friends on thanksgiving and then yesterday with my English family," she wrote.
"But that’s it, I haven’t been able to just text anyone the “news” and certainly don’t feel like I can tell the world," she went on.

"I’ve always been so so vulnerable online sharing about my past BD, ED talked about mental health and shared so so much but this isn’t about me."
"I might be carrying baby P and until now it’s been about my pregnancy experience but this is their life."

"And even though right now I know what gender the professionals have announced that may not be who my child decides to be and it doesn’t feel right to make a big deal about something so personal to them."
"So Yup I’m gonna be a party pooper."

"Because I never want my child turning around and saying why did you decide to share my life online or make it seem like a public service announcement. And of course I support all my loved ones and peers who have gone and shared with the world I just can’t," she continued.
Any hey, maybe she's right — it's none of our business.
One thing is for sure, though. Her child is going to grow up with the most body-positive mom around!
