Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan tipe analisis semiotika. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa secara denotatif, konstruksi kecantikan dalam novel tidak berbeda dengan yang direpresentasikan dalam media massa (iklan, film, dll) yakni disimbolisasikan dengan Barbie, tubuh tinggi, putih, langsing meskipun teks tersebut ditulis perempuan novelis yang tergolong sastra wangi (feminis). Makna konotasi menunjukan bahwa kecantikan dinilai dari segi fisik seperti tinggi, putih, langsing yang merujuk pada kemampuan finansial karena mampu mereparasi tubuh. Makna konotasi juga menunjukkan bahwa perempuan novelis mengkonstruksikan kecantikan sejalan dengan nilai dominan, walaupun masih menawarkan nilai kecantikan alternatif (non-fisik). Mitos menunjukan makna bahwa kecantikan perempuan melalui berbagai macam bentuk reparasi tubuh dianggap berdosa dan konsumtif karena masyarakat masih mempercayai penilaian kecantikan sebagai kodrat. Kecantikan fisik diungkapkan novelis lebih banyak dimaknai sebagai cara utama dalam menilai kecantikan dibandingkan penilaian kecantikan non-fisik. Konstruksi novelis mengenai kecantikan dalam novel sejalan dengan pemaknaan novelis tentang kecantikan. Novelis menilai bahwa perempuan memiliki hak untuk dapat membentuk kecantikan sesuai dengan keinginannya melalui reparasi tubuh, baik operasi plastik atau pun bersolek.

Namun, seiring berjalannya waktu, gerakan body positivity atau pandangan positif mengenai tubuh semakin berkembang. Salah satu media yang menggunakan konsep body positivity adalah Germany's Next Topmodel (GNTM). Pada tahun 2022 program ini menggunakan tema keberagaman dan menampilkan kontestan dari beragam kelompok usia, bentuk tubuh, dan ras. Penelitian ini menganalisis secara semiotik keberagaman yang ditampilkan dalam GNTM 2022 dan menemukan bahwa keberagaman tersebut menjadi bentuk perlawanan terhadap standar kecantikan yang ada di Jerman, khususnya dalam dunia mode. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa meskipun GNTM 2022 mempromosikan ide keberagaman dan menunjukkan perlawanan terhadap penggambaran ideal perempuan, tetapi standar kecantikan yang seragam masih sangat melekat dalam industri mode di Jerman.

The media often portrays women as idealized and perfect. This contributes to body shaming of women who are perceived as not living up to that idealized image. However, over time, the body positivity movement has grown. One of the media that uses the concept of body positivity is Germany's Next Topmodel (GNTM). In 2022 this program used diversity and featured contestants from various age groups, body shapes, and races. This research semiotically analyzes the diversity displayed in GNTM 2022 and finds that diversity is a form of resistance to existing beauty standards in Germany, especially in the fashion world. The results of the analysis show that although GNTM 2022 promotes the idea of diversity and shows resistance to the ideal depiction of women, uniform beauty standards are still very much embedded in the fashion industry in Germany."
