V Magazine Debuts Plus-Size Models
by Betsy on Celebs
V Magazine, the glossy fashion magazine that has had the likes of Miranda Kerr, Gisele Bundchen and Gwen Stefani grace its cover, is going for a new look for the January issue. Plus-size models such as Crystal Renn will be beauties of the issue and poses will range from fully dressed to completely nude. The editor-in-chief of the magazine Stephen Gans said,
“Big, little, pint-size, plus-size — every body is beautiful. And this issue is out to prove it.”
Granted so called ‘plus-size’ models are only a size 8 or 10 but this act by V Magazine is proving that the fashion and media industries are finally realizing that the average supermodel is not glamorous anymore. In the past year, with plus-size model Lizzie Miller posing forGlamour magazine and other controversies such as the emaciated Ralph Lauren model or the waif photo of Demi Moore it’s apparent there is still a double standard in the fashion industry but a change is on the horizon and maybe someday average woman won’t be labeled as plus-size models and instead be the supermodels of our time.
