BY REBECCA SHORE

CASTING CALLS for Swimsuit 2015 are in full swing (but don’t be surprised—so is our shooting season). Over the next several months we will be bringing you a sneak peek at some of this year’s Swimsuit hopefuls. Who do you think will make it in?

WHY EVEN bother trying to write an apt intro for Stephanie Shiu, when I’ll probably just get it all wrong? Stephanie, who spends a good chunk of her time “slaving away” (her words!) as production manager for The Bridge, a website that, in their words “Connects artists and brands”  turned our innocuous Casting Call into her own erratic work of art, to which I say: http://siswimdaily.files.wordpress.com/2014/04/like2.jpg?w=77&h=34.

The book PLAY everyone should read is: René Daumal‘s French surrealist play, Ennn Garrrde! [Ed note: Tried as I might, i couldn't find any reference to this in Daumal's catalogue of works, so if you want to see it . . . ask Stephanie]

SI's last plus sized model flopped and was never seen again, and I doubt they're going to add #2 to their roster. Could be wrong, hope I'm wrong, but atm I don't see it.

Then there's the issue of bikini sizing. All the models wear one size... small (model small), and this model may not even be able to fit into the sample size.

Boring. Too much vs model look have no meat look boring feel.

Wtb thicker model. At least one that has some meat

I'm feeling Stephanie Shiu so far, her and Hailey seem like they could be promising additions.
