    Is there an article on that cover that says "When a Size 4 is Too Big: a Curvy Model's Struggle to (can't read last word)? Am i the only one tired of reading the occasional piece in fashion mags bemoaning unreasonable standards and ED among models as though fashion mags have nothing to do with it?

    I got into a huge, tearful argument with a friend in the ninth grade as to whether or not Georges Marciano was a real person. She insisted that he wasn't, that none of the fashion companies with people's names were actually named after real people, and I was terribly naive to think so. (This was before the Internet.)

    Suck it, Jennifer!

    Crystal Renn's body makes my day. In a way that has nothing whatsoever to do with measurements, size 8, plusness, anything. She is like the Bridget Bardot of this decade--I just want to see her, and see her, and see her some more.

    Is there such a thing as a plus-sized model for men in "high fashion"? I get the JCP Big & Tall catalog and they definitely have bigger guys - sometimes besweatered football players are on the cover - but I figured it was a niche job, catalog only work. What if a guy is too tall or has too big of a torso/waist (even from, say, muscle)?

    @Alessar: i read an interview with Armani where he was doing a show in Houston, and it was hard for him to find models that he wanted because all the men were too tall and muscular. so i'd imagine it's a similar situation.

    @roslyn taber: Interesting. I was reading a male model's blog a while back (it's sort of half modeling, half fitness) and he posted some pics and said they were "off season" and he needed to lose 15# from that. The thing is, he was buff and ripped like crazy already and I couldn't see where he could possibly lose it except from muscle mass. So on the one hand the models showing up for the Armani event you mention didn't know they were "too big" but this other guy knew he overshot what was desirable. It makes me infer that there's a range that's considered standard but that there's not the explicit concept of "plus."

    Was Lagerfeld such an asshole when he was fat?

    I mean, yes, he's a bitch. But think about how hungry he must be (his diet plan is low on the noms). I'd be a bitch too.

    Although I agree with the reservations everyone's mentioned, I still think this is a good thing. The prevailing attitude is that it doesn't matter if I (0r any other fat woman) do my hair all nice, makeup, stylish clothes etc. because fat=ugly. While models like Crystal Renn are smaller and prettier than I am, their presence still challenges that bullshit paradigm, and that makes me happy.

    @snark_shark: yeah. I'm a fat woman, too. And I've overheard this comment at least 5 times the past year regarding fat women who work at being stylish: "like putting nailpolish on a pig"

    That attitude won't stop me from trying, though, because I like pretty things and I like dressing well.
