A 3ft8 model has called out lingerie company for not using shorter models like her.

The US underwear brand is known for its legendary catwalk shows and models dubbed 'Victoria's Secret Angels' as they strut down the runway wearing wings.

Stars they've used in the past include models Adriana Lima, Miranda Kerr, Gisele Bündchen, Alessandra Ambrosio, Heidi Klum and Tyra Banks. And all these women have one thing in common – they're all leggy beauties.

However, Cait Hellyer - who brands herself – thinks they should change that.

The 23-year-old from Gloucestershire says she's tired of seeing other women like her not being represented by the brand. She says there's 'no excuse' when other companies, like Lounge Underwear, have used shorter models.

Cait told us: "I don't think Victoria's Secret has used shorter models.I know Lounge Underwear have in their campaigns, they've used two or three. I definitely think there's room for more diversification.

"If brands like Lounge and Ann Summers can use shorter model, then Victoria's Secret can too."

Cait, who also said she'd like to work with underwear brand Boux Avenue, said she thinks it would help women with their body image if they say more diverse models used in lingerie campaigns.

"It would be so much better if women are able to see more ladies they can relate to," she said. "Even I struggle with body image, if I see a leggy model, toned stomach, it makes me feel like I'm not seeing people who look like me, so I can't imagine how other people would feel too."

Victoria's Secret has been contacted for comment.

Cait, who boasts 26,800 followers on her @asliceofcait account, started out on the site sharing fashion posts aimed at women. However, after she realised it was only really men engaging with them, she decided to sell her content on instead.

She now sells lingerie, swimwear and latex pictures and videos on the site and is loving it while the money rolls in. "I can go on holiday and see my family when I want," she said. "I have a flexible life and I don't see any shame in doing it."
