Clauds Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 22 hours ago, jj3 said: Now you say that i understand, i made something lately in a pretty big cloth shop, ... and i was surprised the way they classified the sizes. They were pround to say we have "plus sizes", but i noticed for the opposite, you had to go pretty quickly in the kid space, for smaller sizes, so i understand what you mean. But now it's said, oh, common ! I know short girls love to complain about their height because they know boys find that pretty cute, that's somehow a "normailty". And plus, that's a whole part of your personailty, short girls make lots of things, fun things, (or no lol) that taller girls don't do. What you say remind me how much that's a business, like i said above, brands and shops make money with that. Si trying to create that swimwear brand is a business, just like when some brands try to sale religious clothes ... It's not so innocent as they want us to think, in the end. They wanted to sale paper, and now they want to sale tissue. But still, it's exploiting an unhealthy image of the woman. Bad reason, bad business. I never complain about my height tbh, it means I get to be comfortable pretty much everywhere because there's room to fit in I only complained when I realized being so short meant my Beauty pageant dreams would never come true lol. And yes, it is a business for sure and I understand that, my problem is that as mentioned, it's promoting unhealthy as the new normal, they probably will sell well in the swimwear line but I can see the magazine either flopping or completely changing their style to aim for women instead of men. And oh lord this Sarina chick is such a mess o.o, watch her win the whole thing lolol the comments are gold tho, I'd feel bad for her but she's making money with this and she clearly thought this was a great idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peroxideblonde Posted August 10, 2017 Author Share Posted August 10, 2017 i don't even like Sarina but she's not fat, Ashley is way bigger..her body compared to the other plus size models is actually not that bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give me a break. Some men are upset over losing some wank material. I doubt other models care enough to be repulsed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cult Icon Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 I've watched some of the re-runs of mid-late 2000s SI videos. MJ day is cute back then, but a bit overweight. She gained a lot more weight in the past couple of years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. It's like no one wants to be associated with certain brands, designers, photographers, etc because they have a bad reputation. Take Playboy, no legit model or respected actress wanted to be in the magazine because of their trashy style, it was like that for a long time, it became a shitshow. I can see the same happening with SI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hauteheart Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Allie is living proof that good things come to those who actually don't wait, as her #SISwimSearch submission was one of the very first ones we saw! A state championship basketball player, turned pageant queen, turned swimsuit designer and model — is there anything this blonde beauty can't do?! So why SI Swimsuit? Allie is a middle size model, who isn't a big fan of traditional categories like "plus size" and "runway," and is looking for a platform where women of all shapes and sizes can see their bodies represented. Talk about a perfect fit for us! https://www.si.com/swim-daily/2017/08/11/allie-ayers-si-swimsuit-open-casting-call-top-15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
