169 / FIRST LOOK: V MAGAZINE’S (PLUS) SIZE ISSUE
You may have recently heard that V Magazine is devoting its January 2010 issue to plus size models. After Glamour’s promise to promote body diversity in it’s pages and the new ‘Big Girl in a Skinny World’ monthly column, Mark Fast’s use of plus models in his Spring 2010 runway show and many other things, it seems as though maybe, just maybe, the fashion world is starting to take notice. With the average size of American women being size 14, consumers have spoken out against unrealistic beauty standards set forth by the glossy pages of fashion mags. While only time will tell if Glamour’s new pledge will jumpstart a similar movement in other publications, V Magazine has joined in.
Today, images from the Terry Richardson editorial ‘One Size Fits All’ popped up on the internet. The spread showcases models Jacquelyn Jablonski and Crystal Renn styled and posed in an identical manner and absolutely trashes the notion that clothing looks better on thinner bodies. Crystal is definitely holding her own and much like my girl @huny said on twitter - “Plus size model Crystal Renn makes this skinny model look downright boring” - I couldn’t agree more.
I’m actually really excited for this issue to hit newsstands because V Magazine always has amazing photography and editorials. Always. I’m sure this issue will be no different.
To see the rest of the photos from the editorial, head on over to Models.com.

165 / EDITORIAL: CRYSTAL RENN ‘FANTASY LAND’ ELLE CANADA JAN 2010
Are you guys ready to kill me yet? I’ve been totally SWAMPED and not able to update much in the past week and a half. In order to get back into the swing of things, here’s Crystal Renn featured in an 18-page editorial in Elle Canada January 2010 issue. Most know, I love me some Crystal and these pictures exemplify why. She is simply stunning. A lot of people may complain about her “overexposure” but I don’t think they’re realizing some of the doors that she’s helping to further break down. She’s cementing herself as not only a plus supermodel but a supermodel period.

141 / CRYSTAL RENN MODELS EVANS NEW COLLECTION
This weekend I received an email from one of my UK readers alerting me to Evan’s upcoming collection modeled by Crystal Renn. I’m always excited to see what Evans will do next since this year they have truly become my go-to store. They have fulfilled my need of sequined and studded goodness!
The Daily Mail posted some images in which Crystal is styled from head-to-toe in pieces from Evan’s new collection. Said to be hitting stores and online around Christmastime, this collection preview is telling me that I need to save up some serious money! Of course my favorite piece is the purple velvet dress! I loved that it was paired with the sequin belt and a red lip! I’m also digging the Chanel-like jacket and black cropped blazer.
Crystal was also featured in a ‘Celebs on Sunday’ spread back in September and was also styled in Evans clothes. In the article she talks about being a plus model in the industry and gives some tips on how to dress a curvier figure. You can read the article (pdf from) here.
My only question is when are those boots in the first image being released? They are so amazing! Evans is trying to kill my bank account this holiday season. What do you guys think about the collection previews?

Since I’ve gotten behind on posting editorials, I decided to post three of my favorite ones back-to-back-to-back. I got all of the images from Every Body is Beautiful, an amazing archive of fashion imagery featuring models sized 10 and over. If you haven’t checked that blog out, you must!
The editorial below features blog favorite Crystal Renn in Australian Harper’s Bazaar, one of my all-time favorite. Crystal is styled in high-end designer clothes that showcase her curves, there is even an image that shows a bit of a bulge! Crystal looks absolutely amazing in these photos. Love it!

044 / EDITORIAL: CRYSTAL RENN ELLE CANADA JULY 09
I usually wait until Fridays to post editorials but these were too amazing not to share. Crystal Renn’s beautiful 12-page spread in the July 2009 edition of Elle Canada is an ode to Frida Kahlo and was shot on location in Mexico. She looks absolutely stunning and I love her eyebrows!
