The fashion industry STILL doesn't get it!
Came across this article via a Facebook friend. Apparently, a beautiful woman with a normal-sized body was told she was too large to model even plus-sized clothing....
Too fat to be a model? The picture that caused a storm in the fashion world
Hmmm, last I checked the plus-sized section (yes, I used to wear those sizes), they started at about size 16. Now that I'm size 10 again, I shop in the regular women's clothing section. So why does the fashion industry think an 8 is plus-sized? And why haven't they figured out that most women do NOT have flat tummies?
