V is for...
First things first (for this first 2010 post): HAPPY NEW YEAR!
I hope everyone had a lovely New Year's, mine was excellent!
I don't usually read V Magazine, but I will most certainly be looking out for the "Size Issue" on newstands Jan. 14! From the looks of this video (which nearly made me cry with joy) and the below pictured editorial, this is a step forward in the push for "plus" size models being featured in high fashion, quality publications. For once, the move to have models outside of sample size range comes across as fresh instead of self-serving (i.e. rope the "normal girl" into buying a magazine under the premise that they now feature "girls like you"). I think one of the best parts is that both plus size and straight size models are featured, exemplifying that there is indeed a way in which both can exist and still be esthetically pleasing.
2010 feels like it will be quite the year, and this is a promising sign of things to come, at least I think.
