The book precedes Leonard Nimoy's Full Body Project by 13 years. Tracy Young, reviewing the book in Allure Magazine, said, "Like painter Lucian Freud's monumental nudes of performance artist Leigh Bowery... the nude women in Women En Large have a certain majesty, the unabashedness of Henry Moore sculptures. They have escaped. And they're enough to convince you that clothes, not flesh, are what makes fat people look diminished. " Photographs from Women En Large have been shown in New York, Tokyo, Kyoto, Toronto, Boston, London, St. Petersburg, and San Francisco.
