If someone ever did try getting her to self-reflect, she probably told them to go fuck themselves.

That asshole Rylee asked not to be displayed on the same page as his gigamom’s ass cleft, and lost weight when not directly under her influence. I’m pretty sure Tess keeps self reflection away with a ten foot pole

Most models understand that their job is all about making the clothes look good while conveying whatever story the designer/photographer/art director has come up with--the photos, or their appearance on the runway, are about showcasing the clothes, not them.
Tess has never understood this. In her mind, she's the one who is the center of interest, and the clothes are just incidental. She's the one doing a designer or manufacturer a favor by appearing in their campaign. So she doesn't have to come up with a wider range of facial expressions or poses than she's already got, and she can get whatever tattoos she likes, and it's totally okay if she shows up for a shoot and none of the clothes fit because she's lied about her measurements--she's Tess Holliday, damn it.
A tiny, tiny percentage of models not only make the clothes look amazing, but also have a look of their own that makes them stand out from every other tall, thin, young, symmetrically-featured girl. They're the ones designers latch onto as muses, and who make people thumbing through fashion magazines stop at their photos and want to know, "Who is she?" They're the rare ones who get to be supermodels.
Tess was never a supermodel; she's at best a niche model, who can't even model in her own fatgirl niche anymore because she's too fat. Even before the pandemic, the only gigs left to here were being trotted out as a monstrous novelty.
But right now, when garment sales are in freefall, when there are no runway shows, and limited photo shoots due to the pandemic, and with no sign of either economic recovery or an end to the pandemic any time soon? Nobody's wasting time or money hiring Two-ton Tessie for shock value.
By the time we're all through this and things start to improve, the fashion industry will have taken a sustained, and very traumatic, beating. A lot of indie brands--the kinds that like to hire Tess--will have either gone under, or still be surviving only by the skin of their teeth.
Tess is dumb and vain enough to think she'll have a career to go back to, once Covid-19 goes away and the world goes back to normal. Boy, is she in for a rude awakening.

Yep, she was always way too short as well as too fat for even a standard plus-sized model, as well as too disproportional. The tats belong in alt-model world and rockabilly 'model' niche, nowhere else are they really acceptable if you want to be a real model as opposed to a brand in yourself. Like the guy with the skull-tattooed face (RIP) those types have a moment in the sun if they're lucky, then they're discarded quickly for the next token weirdo/fatty/minority du jour.
Even highly successful plus models like Ashley Graham (who Tess HATES and is triggered by apparently) or Crystal Renn have always tended to put in the effort to lose some weight and get more opportunities in the normal-sized fashion world as their star rises and their faces ad names become mainstream. Tess did the opposite; narrowed her opportunities down again and again with a combination of disgusting behavior on-set, unprofessional stuff like lying about her measurements, and finally, piling on weight so fewer and fewer lines could even begin to use her. Basically Tess seemed to think being out of control and uglifying herself was a career move. All it did was make her even more of a token hire.
What Tess should have done within a couple of years max of being the 'first size 22 model' is see a dietitian, lose a considerable amount of fat and train properly with a trainer to be in the lower size range plus size model category, where she could maybe have extended her career for a reasonable length of time. Get down to a US 12-14 and she may have done ok after establishing her 'brand' despite being a shortarse. Instead she bloated to an unhireable 28+ and blew out her facial features, her only real 'model' selling point.
The tats that now obscure half her body are just another in a long line of short-term thinking disasters career-wise. You can cover up small ones with heavy make-up, and shop some out post-production but they are so dark, heavy and intrusive nobody's going to want to deal with that if tats aren't already part of the idea for the shoot,

I get the impression she's the type to start screaming N-bombs, especially if she got hit in the face she loves to stuff with fillers so much.

I swear the meth head with a TBI down at the local Waffle House is more coherent than tessy's virtue signaling.
I know it is part deathfat but the fillers and other half priced/back alley work she has had done on her face is something else.
She has truly wrecked herself .
The shape of her face in this pic is worse than Baby Jane Hudson's.

We get it, Tess - you read this thread.
Go get an actual job, eat salads instead of sheet cakes, and stop dumping your kids on other people.

I want to know why Tess hates Ashley Graham.
Other than the obvious, of course.
Has she said things about Ashley? Tried to screw up her bookings in some way?

LMFAO, the pure narcissism. Bad design, obviously, but putting herself on it?
Also, I've seen that flag. I had to Google it. Looks like the black and brown represent Pee Oh Sea and then the tranny flag in the corner.

No, she's not "just a 'pretty face'," she's a massive fatty mudslide proving that bigger is not always better when it comes to tits. I'll bet it gets pretty sweaty and rank in that crevasse between them.
She kept lying about her measurements, which is one of the fundamental no-nos in modeling; models provide their measurements to the agency, which keeps them on file, and part of a model's job is to stay at those measurements. This is important because the sample clothes worn by models fit very specific sizes and body types, and when booking a model the client wants to know she'll fit.
Tess not only lied about her size from the start, but she kept getting bigger. So she repeatedly showed up to jobs where the clothing provided, which would have fit her listed measurements, was at least a couple of sizes too small, and in some cases had to be cut apart and made to fit her, thus wasting sample garments, the photographer's time, and costing the client money.
And Tess never fucking learned; after all, she was TESS HOLLIDAY. Losing weight was out of the question. So was giving her agency her correct measurements, because if she had, that would have disqualified her for a lot of jobs straight off the bat.
Despite a large Insta following and getting lots of press, she was an unprofessional pain in the ass, and thus a liability. It didn't help that she burned through a bunch of high-profile clients, including H&M, early on, which meant none of them were going to book her again. And when you're a model nobody wants to do repeat business with, word gets around fast and your bookings dry up.
tl;dr: M.ilk got an initial PR boost by signing Tess, but ultimately she was a lying, badmouthing fatty no client wanted to hire twice, so they dumped her.

The cutting garments incident happened with H&M, they had to alter a men's shirt.
Adding to your post she started with the right foot with Milk complaining about the clothes from one of the first major campaigns she was image of.
Tess modeled for Torrid, a couple of months later she appeared in a Buzzfed video where fat chicks tried on plus size clothing, Tess wore various Torrid garments and whined about how the sizes were wrong and didn't fit her well.
Also the infamous "black men love me" interview was thanks to Milk and we already know it was a nightmare for the journalist and the staff. The backlash was so much that Milk had to make a statement on behalf of Tess apologizing.

Oh God! Besides that side splittingly hilarious Style(?) Magazine shoot where they just said "fuck it" and draped the dress around her neck, the H&M one comes damn close for one of my favorite fails ever. Didn't H&M have something entirely different they had in mind for the shoot? I can't remember.
