Welcome!

Faith Costa is an artist and plus size model from New Jersey. With multiple passions, Faith's life work is to create positivity through her many arts. 

Artist

I am a life-long artist from New Jersey, deeply passionate about creativity and self-expression. While I’m mostly self-taught, I’ve taken fine art classes and workshops throughout my life to continually refine my skills and broaden my artistic perspective. Art has always been my whole world, and there’s nothing I’d rather do than immerse myself in creating and sharing my work with others.

 

Before devoting myself fully to art, I spent seven incredible years working as a plus-size fashion model. I always saw modeling as a form of art in itself—an intricate dance of colors, photography, textures, expressions, and composition. It gave me a unique perspective on aesthetics and visual storytelling, which continues to influence my artwork today.

 

In 2022, I embarked on a dream I had been nurturing for years: starting my own full-time art business. I began vending at fine arts and craft festivals and showcasing my work at exhibitions throughout the tri-state area. These opportunities have allowed me to connect with people who resonate with my creations, which has been a deeply fulfilling experience.

 

Sharing my art with the world has been a journey of growth and self-discovery. Whether through vibrant paintings, intricate designs, or meaningful compositions, my goal is to bring joy and inspiration to those who experience my work. Art is not just what I do—it’s who I am, and it’s a privilege to live my dream every day.

Model

I jumpstarted my fashion career through Instagram. In mid-2015, I began my journey of body positivity, self-love, and mental health awareness. My lifelong love for fashion quickly led me to modeling, and in September 2016, I signed with Bicoastal MGMT, allowing me to pursue modeling full-time.

I mainly work in New York City, Los Angeles, and Philadelphia, focusing on print campaigns, runway shows, and fit modeling. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of modeling for brands like Lane Bryant, Torrid, Macy's, Dia & Co, Universal Standard, and many more. My career has been impactful because I never fit the typical "plus-size model" norm; I was one of the first visibly tattooed size 3/4X models. It’s been incredible to see the shift toward more diverse body types in mainstream media.

I’ve been featured in several publications, including People, NYLON, InStyle, Yahoo, Bustle, Huffington Post, Plus Model Mag, Refinery 29, and Revelist, to name a few.

I’ve also had the opportunity to speak on numerous panels about fashion, inclusivity, body positivity, and mental health awareness. I always aim to use my platform to connect with others and shine a light on these important issues.

 

 

 

 

 

Advocate

I’m deeply passionate about mental health awareness. I use my voice frequently on social media and take part in panel events and online campaigns to show support and share important information about mental health, women’s health, and more. My goal is to create safe, inclusive spaces in everything I do.

Currently, I’m working as a full-time artist, model, and influencer, and I pour my heart and soul into each of these passions. Whether it’s modeling, creating art, or advocating for causes I care about, I strive to make a positive impact in every way I can.
