During the CFDA Fashion Awards in NYC on Monday, the artist talked about how at the time, only skinny girls ruled the scene.
'I started making records in the '90s, in the era of the waif and the supermodel,' said the World Of Dance star. At the time, Kate Moss, Cindy Crawford and Christy Turlington were the poster women for good looks.
Jennifer didn't fit into a lot of sample sized and wanted to embrace her curves, not fight them.

So she looked for clothes that worked for her and was confident about her shape, telling her fans it was OK to have a rounder bottom.
On Monday, Jennifer thanked the designers who were ahead of the trend by embracing her naturally curvy figure. 'Once I was introduced to those people, like in this room, my life changed,' she said.
'Sitting in the design rooms of Oscar de la Renta, Versace, Dolce and Gabbana, Gucci and so many of you guys here tonight, people who designed and allowed me to get into their designs with curves like me.'

Spectacle: The show was a spectacle as several dancers performed
'To say I was like a kid in a candy store was an understatement. And slowly, as curves began to be embraced, the girl who wanted to combine street style with couture began to blossom, and I'm grateful to all of you for that.'
She also thanked her fiancé Alex Rodriguez for making her 'feel like the most beautiful person in the world' as she accepted the Fashion Icon prize.
The singer-and-actress stepped on stage to receive the final award of the night from the Council of Fashion Designers of America in recognition of her longstanding impact on the fashion world and during her acceptance speech she teared up as she thanked her partner and her children - 11-year-old twins Max and Emme - for their unconditional love and support.

'You make me feel like the MVP every day. You make me feel like the most beautiful person in the world, just from your love. Thank you so much,' said the Dinero singer.
During her speech, the Love Don't Cost A Thing hitmaker also got emotional when she dedicated her win to the late Hollywood hairstylist, Oribe - who died in December 2018 - and A-list make-up artist Kevyn Aucoin, who passed away in 2002.
She said: 'We lost two (great) artists this year, Kevyn Aucoin and Oribe, who helped turn me from an around-the-way girl.
'I said I wouldn't cry. Together we created so many iconic looks, and I'm forever grateful. And tonight, I'm dedicating this award to them.'
J.Lo looked stunning at the event, which was held at the Brooklyn Museum in New York City, in a red custom Ralph Lauren ensemble, comprised of a turtleneck crystal embellished crop top and a long flowing skirt which was finished with sporty drawstring waist.
