From Cosmopolitan — In the fashion industry, "plus size" is a term for models who are size 8 and up. But in the real world, most people would never think of a size 8 as plus size — most plus-size clothing doesn't even start until a size 16. Alex LaRosa, a self-proclaimed "plus-size model who's visibly plus-size," was on HuffPost Live to talk about some of her issues with these discrepancies: "In a world where you're telling women that plus-size is sizes 4 and up, you're causing body image issues. You're causing unrealistic expectations that every one -- every woman -- should be a size 4. To bring that into the plus-size community, where you're using sizes 8, 10 and 12, when sometimes the stores don't even start carrying the clothes until size 14, you're telling women, 'You want to look like these models. This is what you should look like, but it's never going to happen.' In fact, not so long ago plus-size models were around size 10-12, but that number has recently shrunk to an 8. According to Anthony Higgins, the director at MSA Models, "[catalogs] will use a size 8 because they think size 14 and 16 will relate to that person and size 4 and size 6 will relate to that person. They do not use size 18 as much as they should for print – though… size 18 makes the most money." The pathetic truth is plus-sized models' bodies are headed in the opposite direction of actual plus-size women's bodies. According to the CDC, the average American woman is a size 14, and yet the dominant sizes in the industry are 0, 2, and 4. At size 8, the plus-size models are considerably smaller than the average American women, and if that isn't indicative of how delusional we are about what the majority of woman's bodies look like, I don't know what is. As a fat woman, I long to see ladies who look like me modeling the clothes being sold to me. Many "plus-size" models are beautiful and healthy, and I'm so happy they have flourishing careers that perhaps felt impossible ten or fifteen years ago (see the gorgeous, awesome Robyn Lawley above, and the gorgeous, awesome Sophie Tweed-Simmons below) — but I think they should be doing that in the straight-size market. Because that's what they are: straight-sized. A size 8 can shop pretty much anywhere a size 2 can shop, but size 14 cannot. Hence, a size 8 is not an actual plus size. Of course, we continue to see fashion predominately on thin bodies because we're told that's what sells. But the fact is, it's just what we've been fed for so long that we don't know what the alternative would look like. This could change, but the fashion industry would have to want it to. According to research published in PLoS ONE, Seeing diverse bodies makes us more comfortable with body diversity — meaning the more size 14 women we see, the more we're like "hey! she looks good!" instead of "avert thine eyes from the Chubster McThunderThighs"! If we saw more average-sized women in media, the more comfortable we would be with those images and the more we'd want to see ladies who look like us in movies, TV, and ad campaigns. From where I'm standing (OK, sitting) (in my size 16 Old Navy yoga pants), it sounds like a stellar idea.

Because she's a size 8, and in the modeling world (not the woke modeling world where everyone needs to be seen/heard and you are a bad person if you don't like it), that is plus sized. I said months ago that Barbara was hired for that roll, just as Leomie was hired for a reason. VS has also been looking at another darker skinned model who's considered a tad "thiccer" as well... because EVERYONE needs to be seen and heard. VS wants ALL THE THINGS, and it's coming across as gimmicky at this point. A sure sign of desperation to retain customers and appeal to a newer woke generation who want ALL the things to matter.

WTB SWIM SHOW..... Maybe in April or May of next year (just in time for Summer hype)
L Brands is declined comment in regards to not having a show this year. That tells us a couple of different possible scenarios. If they weren't going to have a show or something in it's place VS would release that info to investors fairly quickly, but nothing so far, which is a little strange. I'm waiting for Q2 report to find out more, but that should be coming out soon. Scenarios 1. They're waiting for sponsoring/ads/funding from something like Youtube/Hulu/Nextflix. 2. They don't know yet. 3. They have something in the works but are unwilling to say at this point 4. No show... but why sit around on it and not add to Shanina's public statement while the fire is hot? The fact they are flat out declining comment at this point is interesting imo. Also interesting that they're building their own hype around this collection, and have said nothing about Valentina. They're waiting on public opinion before having another potential oops moment. Just because Valentina shot for them doesn't mean we'll see many picture from her. They've done that in the past with models who've shot for them. If public is in favor of her, they'll gold star themselves for sure. “Everything is super trendy & chic” – overheard at our Fall Collection preview at New Bond Street, London.
