In these parts we’ve always believed that beautiful comes in all shapes and sizes. Nonetheless, as much as there have been shy statements towards ‘fashion for all’ or ‘embracing curves’ there are very few high fashion mags that have dared to actually feature models with plus-size curves and plain old un-retouched fat . To our surprise one of the authorities in edgy fashion, V magazine can be now counted as one of the few who dared, to show the fleshier side of womanhood.
It’s not about bashing ‘thinness’, glorifying ‘fatness’ , praising ‘curviness’ or vice versa. More than ever it’s showcasing the beauty in each individual, regardless of shape size or color.Featuring the variety we all see out there in the real world.
