* This trope appears often, likely due to AuthorAppeal, in Creator/CeliaKyle's romance novels. Nearly all of her female protagonists angst about being fat and the male protagonists always reassure them that they're gorgeous.
* While he also wrote more conventionally attractive female characters (and a broad spectrum of body types in general), Creator/TerryPratchett [[AuthorAppeal enjoyed writing about characters with this body type]].
** In ''Literature/{{Maskerade}}'' Agnes Nitt is described as "good-looking, in an expansive sort of way"; all she's missing is the confidence, which her SplitPersonality Perdita has in spades.
*** In one of the Witches novels, Nanny Ogg's thoughts concerning Agnes reveal that this is considered the ideal in Lancre, with the ideal of Lancre womanhood being about two womanhoods from anywhere else; a Lancre man might cast an eye at a skinnier, more conventional lady, but when he intends to settle down, he almost invariably goes for a chubby woman. This is based on the "practical reasoning" that A: such a woman is usually [[StoutStrength pretty strong]], which comes in handy in a rural farming-based household, and B: women who get like that normally enjoy eating, which means they are good at cooking.
** In ''Literature/SoulMusic'', a Valkyrie is described enthusiastically: "[she was] as much woman as you could get in one place without getting two women."
** Lady Sybil Ramkin, who first appears in ''Literature/GuardsGuards'' and becomes the wife of Samuel Vimes, is one gifted with the robust figure of a well-to-do lady who runs a shelter for Swamp Dragons. In that novel, it is said that "[her] bosom rose and fell like an empire." Later, in ''Literature/TheFifthElephant'', she demonstrates a talent of those who are so gifted by expertly singing an aria from a famous Dwarf opera (and incidentally the strength to [[StoutStrength tear iron bars out of a castle window]]).
* Easter of ''Literature/AmericanGods'' is a well-rounded, well-endowed woman, describing in excessive detail as to how she left New Orleans after getting so fat that her thighs rub against each other when she walks... and is one of the most seductive and desirable women in the story. {{Justified|Trope}} as she used to be a Celtic fertility goddess, and as such must possess the correct figure (which ''was'' considered the epitome of womanly beauty back in the day).
* In ''Literature/TheAmyVirus'', Cyan's mother Belinda is a former plus-size model. She's still described as very pretty.
* Hazel from ''Literature/BigBlonde'' is described as a large woman. She has a [[DudeMagnet never-ending line of suitors]] even after she's married. Hazel was once also a model.
* In the Creator/DashiellHammett story ''Literature/TheBigKnockover'', featuring Literature/TheContinentalOp, Big Flora Brace is this, described as big, blond and good-looking in a predatory way.
* In ''[[Literature/BlackTrillium Blood Trillium]]'', Archmage Iriane is described as "extremely stout" and "exquisitely beautiful." (Also, [[AmazingTechnicolorPopulation she's blue]].)
* In Toni Morrison's ''Literature/TheBluestEye'', Miss Marie, aka "the Maginot Line," is the leader of the three prostitutes who live in the small town where the novel takes place. Miss Marie is described as being immensely fat, but gets the same number of (if not more) clients than her thinner associates, and all of the women in the area hate her for her beauty.
* Mary Callahan [[spoiler:later Callahan-Finn]] of the ''Literature/CallahansCrosstimeSaloon'' series, who's listed at two-fifty and gives Jake a raging hard-on when he first sees her. She is both an "artist" and a security chief at Lady Sally's bordello and catches the eye of two of Callahan's patrons in just one visit. Zoey is later described as a nine-tenths scale model of Mary, which still puts her at 225. Jake even admits this is [[ChubbyChaser his Fetish]].
* Queen Neferishu in ''Literature/ChroniclesOfMagravandias'', in contrast with the willowy standards of beauty of the Mewtish people. Prince Bayard, who usually sleeps with anything with a pulse, has apparently said: "she's the only weighty woman he'd ever consider taking to bed."
* Literature/CiaphasCain (HERO OF THE IMPERIUM) book 7, ''The Emperor's Finest'', features a planetary governor's daughter trying to seduce Cain. That woman, Mira [=DuPanya=], is described by Cain himself as carrying a lot of weight very well. She even wears a stylized military uniform several sizes too small to exaggerate the effects of [[CurvesInAllTheRightPlaces her womanly figure and her sizable assets.]]
* An evil example appears in Creator/StephenKing's ''Franchise/TheDarkTower'' series. Sylvia Pittston, a [[PreacherMan wandering preacher]] who arrives in the town of Tull and establishes a religion there, is over two hundred and fifty pounds. She inspires lust in all of the men who see her, including [[TheHero Roland]] and [[spoiler: [[TheDragon The Man in Black]], whose encounter with her left her pregnant with [[BigBad The Crimson King's]] child]]. Sylvia eventually convinces the entire town to try to kill Roland; [[spoiler: he is forced to kill them all, including her]].
* Zinka in ''Literature/DeepSecret''. Maree describes her as "plumpish" (but then, Maree's not small herself), and Rupert refers at one point to her "lovely, ample form." She has no shortage of admirers.
* In ''Literature/EccentricNeighborhoods'', widowed patriarch Chaguito Vernet meets Brunhilda Casares and falls in love with her figure and lighthearted spirit.
* ''Literature/EarthsChildren'': Played with regarding Zelandoni. She no longer considers herself very attractive due to her large weight gain and getting on in years, though some people still find her pretty. She was [[IWasQuiteALooker once considered the most beautiful woman]] of the Zelandonii and was never a slender woman (the word "voluptuous" is used to describe her a few times).
* In the Joseph Conrad short story "Falk," the character known only as Hermann's niece. The narrator rhapsodizes at length about her size.
* Played with in ''Literature/FungusTheBogeyman''. The Bogeys find fat women attractive, but they also like things we consider gross.
* ''Literature/GoodInBed'' uses this trope as a plot point or two. Most notably, the larger female protagonist is used as a muse (or, rather, exploited) for her ex-boyfriend's column, "Loving a Larger Woman". She also manages to gradually become more accepting of and comfortable with her figure, as the novel goes on. [[spoiler:By the end, she takes over his "Loving a Larger Woman" column and writes in a way that better connects to other, larger women like herself]].
* In the ''Literature/ImperialRadch'' novel ''Ancillary Sword'', Station Administrator Celar is described as "broad", and also as very beautiful. Since Radchaai language has no gendered pronouns, and all people in the series are referred to as "she", Celar might also be a BigBeautifulMan.
* According to most of the cast of ''Literature/LifeInTheFatLane'', the protagonist is one. [[WeightWoe She disagrees]].
* In the ''Literature/MalazanBookOfTheFallen'', Tattersail is described as having "rolls of flesh" and many characters see her as attractive. Part of her appeal is said to be that she is a grown version of a CuteWitch and one of the few truly upbeat characters in the series.
* In Betsy Cornwell's ''Literature/{{Mechanica}}'' duology, Caro, the best friend [[spoiler: and eventual lover]] of both the heroine Nick and [[spoiler: Prince]] Fin, is "a short, fat, pretty blonde." Both her ample figure and her beauty are emphasized throughout both books. Nick's stepsister Chastity is also chubby and trying to lose weight, but she's also described as pretty and her skinny sister Piety secretly envies her shape.
* Mina Duplessis, the heroine of the comic neo-noir ''Literature/MrBlank'' and its sequel ''Literature/GetBlank'' is a plus-sized model and is consistently described as the most beautiful woman in the book.
* Camila Sagastume, a woman who briefly appears to challenge Aureliano Segundo to an eating contest in ''Literature/OneHundredYearsOfSolitude'', is described as "totemic" and "gigantic," and is known across the land as "The Elephant." But she's also drop-dead gorgeous, even when devouring an ''entire side of veal''--Aureliano wishes to have a different kind of "tourney" in bed with her, and calls her the "ideal woman." Camila is also one of the few examples of BeautyEqualsGoodness in the novel: she's sweet, kind, and caring, willing to call the contest a tie rather than see Aureliano put himself into a food coma.
* In Creator/MelissaScott and Lisa A. Barnett's ''[[Literature/PointOfHopes Point of Hopes]]'', merchant Iniz Allyns is described as being "as large as any two women, and four times as lovely."
* Gammla, the hero's love interest in ''Literature/QuestForFire'', has a round belly which is apparently a very desirable trait among her people.
* [[ActionGirl Ramy Dusotes]], one of the two eponymous [[BountyHunter bounty hunters]] from ''Literature/RieselTalesTwoHunters''. She's described as full-figured — not large, but not particularly slim, either. Her business partner, [[{{Jerkass}} Runge Margavo]], isn't very supportive of this due to his shallow obsession with supermodels and frequently complains (in his mind, with comical exaggeration) about her weight. However, he does on one occasion of absent-mindedness allow his gaze to caress her curves while she's not looking and is "taken in by her beauty" according to the narrative, though he quickly snaps himself out of it after reminding himself of who he's looking at.
* In ''Literature/RiverOfTeeth'', Archie is both big and beautiful and knows how to use that to her advantage. Cal Hotchkiss tries to get a rise out of her by calling her fat, only to get shut up by everyone else, and Houndstooth acknowledges that one reason he hired Archie for their [[TheCaper caper]] was that she can charm anyone within minutes. Archie herself points out that she's such a successful thief because nobody suspects a fat beautiful woman of having such nimble fingers.
* ''Literature/SixOfCrows'': Nina Zenik. Described as similar to a figurehead carved with a generous hand, and one of the most beautiful, seductive characters in the series.
* ''Literature/SmallWorldTabithaKingNovel'': Lucy is on the chunky side, but still very attractive (to the point that Roger privately nicknames her "Juicy Lucy").
* ''Literature/ASongOfIceAndFire'':
** Roose Bolton eventually comes to feel this way about his third wife, "Fat" Walda Frey, and he even admits to Theon that he's become oddly fond of her. Considering [[SoftSpokenSadist who's saying this]] it's definitely notable. He also specifically chose her because he was given the pick of women from [[MassiveNumberedSiblings House Frey]] and was offered his prospective bride's weight in silver for her dowry. Being a MagnificentBastard, he picked the fattest one.
** There is also Myranda Royce, described as being short, fleshy, and buxom.
** Lady Genna Lannister also counts, being the [[UglyGuyHotWife hot wife to Emmon Frey's ugly guy]], and is proud of her imposing physique.
* ''Literature/SoThisIsEverAfter'': Bethany is repeatedly described as very voluptuous and attractive for it.
* One of the protagonists and POV characters of ''Literature/{{Spitfire}}'' is Princess Allene, who is frequently described as fat, with [[BuxomBeautyStandard an extremely generous bosom]], [[CurvesInAllTheRightPlaces a sizeable rear and thighs]], and a full, thick waist and belly to match. She's also so gorgeous that ''all three'' of the other POV characters are smitten with her. (Probable AuthorAppeal, as Creator/MayaKern describes herself on [[https://mayakern.tumblr.com/ her tumblr]] as an "irl fat queer magical girl.")
* Lula in the ''Literature/StephaniePlum'' books is a former prostitute and quite a large woman. It is mentioned by the main character that being big works well for Lula.
* In ''Literature/TheStormlightArchive'', the Dowager Queen Navani Kholin is described as stately, full-figured, and [[SilverFox famously beautiful]], though she's considerably more famous for being a veteran politician and preeminent {{Magitek}} engineer.
* In ''Literature/TheSurfaceBreaks'' by Louise O'Neill, a re-imagining of ''Literature/TheLittleMermaid'', the "Sea Witch" Ceto is the only overweight woman in the mermaids' territory; she is exiled from their kingdom, where all women face huge societal pressure to be thin. She is described as exceptionally pretty even by the standards of the mermaids, all of whom are inhumanly beautiful; and has a large number of male admirers who secretly come to her.
* At the end of ''Literature/TailchasersSong'', Hushpad is described as having gotten a good deal plumper and softer than before [[spoiler:due to having been spayed]]. She's nevertheless still as graceful and attractive to Tailchaser as ever.
* Empress Laisa Toscane-Vorbarra in the ''Literature/VorkosiganSaga'' is described as having "a figure that made Miles, for one, just want to sort of fall over on top of her and burrow in for the winter..." This proves to be a source of chagrin for Lady Alys, the Emperor's social secretary, who had tried unsuccessfully for years to catch Emperor Gregor's eye with an endless parade of tall, slender, pretty women, only to have him fall in love with a short, plump, pretty woman entirely of his own accord.
* ''Literature/WaywardChildren'': Alexis Chopper is described as fat, golden-haired, vibrantly blue-eyed, and "beautiful in ways Jack stumbles to find the words for."
* In ''Literature/TheWheelOfTime'', Graendal is described as full-figured and exceptionally beautiful, both of which she shows off with gowns of semi-transparent mist. She's also TheHedonist, thanks to a FaithHeelTurn away from harsh asceticism and into the service of the Dark One.

Archie herself points out that she's such a successful thief because nobody suspects a fat beautiful woman of having such nimble fingers.
* ''Literature/SixOfCrows'': Nina Zenik. Described as similar to a figurehead carved with a generous hand, and one of the most beautiful, seductive characters in the series.
* ''Literature/SmallWorldTabithaKingNovel'': Lucy is on the chunky side, but still very attractive (to the point that Roger privately nicknames her "Juicy Lucy").
* ''Literature/ASongOfIceAndFire'':
** Roose Bolton eventually comes to feel this way about his third wife, "Fat" Walda Frey, and he even admits to Theon that he's become oddly fond of her. Considering [[SoftSpokenSadist who's saying this]] it's definitely notable. He also specifically chose her because he was given the pick of women from [[MassiveNumberedSiblings House Frey]] and was offered his prospective bride's weight in silver for her dowry. Being a MagnificentBastard, he picked the fattest one.
** There is also Myranda Royce, described as being short, fleshy, and buxom.
** Lady Genna Lannister also counts, being the [[UglyGuyHotWife hot wife to Emmon Frey's ugly guy]], and is proud of her imposing physique.
* ''Literature/SoThisIsEverAfter'': Bethany is repeatedly described as very voluptuous and attractive for it.
* One of the protagonists and POV characters of ''Literature/{{Spitfire}}'' is Princess Allene, who is frequently described as fat, with [[BuxomBeautyStandard an extremely generous bosom]], [[CurvesInAllTheRightPlaces a sizeable rear and thighs]], and a full, thick waist and belly to match. She's also so gorgeous that ''all three'' of the other POV characters are smitten with her. (Probable AuthorAppeal, as Creator/MayaKern describes herself on [[https://mayakern.tumblr.com/ her tumblr]] as an "irl fat queer magical girl.")
* Lula in the ''Literature/StephaniePlum'' books is a former prostitute and quite a large woman. It is mentioned by the main character that being big works well for Lula.
* In ''Literature/TheStormlightArchive'', the Dowager Queen Navani Kholin is described as stately, full-figured, and [[SilverFox famously beautiful]], though she's considerably more famous for being a veteran politician and preeminent {{Magitek}} engineer.
* In ''Literature/TheSurfaceBreaks'' by Louise O'Neill, a re-imagining of ''Literature/TheLittleMermaid'', the "Sea Witch" Ceto is the only overweight woman in the mermaids' territory; she is exiled from their kingdom, where all women face huge societal pressure to be thin. She is described as exceptionally pretty even by the standards of the mermaids, all of whom are inhumanly beautiful; and has a large number of male admirers who secretly come to her.
* At the end of ''Literature/TailchasersSong'', Hushpad is described as having gotten a good deal plumper and softer than before [[spoiler:due to having been spayed]]. She's nevertheless still as graceful and attractive to Tailchaser as ever.
* Empress Laisa Toscane-Vorbarra in the ''Literature/VorkosiganSaga'' is described as having "a figure that made Miles, for one, just want to sort of fall over on top of her and burrow in for the winter..." This proves to be a source of chagrin for Lady Alys, the Emperor's social secretary, who had tried unsuccessfully for years to catch Emperor Gregor's eye with an endless parade of tall, slender, pretty women, only to have him fall in love with a short, plump, pretty woman entirely of his own accord.
* ''Literature/WaywardChildren'': Alexis Chopper is described as fat, golden-haired, vibrantly blue-eyed, and "beautiful in ways Jack stumbles to find the words for."
* In ''Literature/TheWheelOfTime'', Graendal is described as full-figured and exceptionally beautiful, both of which she shows off with gowns of semi-transparent mist. She's also TheHedonist, thanks to a FaithHeelTurn away from harsh asceticism and into the service of the Dark One.

Clover is not an example. Her weight gain was portrayed negatively, and there was nothing stated about attractiveness one way or the other. It is not about fan perception of size, but how the character is portrayed in canon.

Heck at some point, Clover even started to like having a bigger waistline, but still accepted slimming down to normal.
