Thick Chicks, I’m Whackin’ It: Glamour’s Naked ‘Plus-Sized’ Models

from www.stylist.com – A month ago, we reported on Glamour’s efforts to push the boundaries of accepted beauty norms with a photo shoot for its November issue featuring all plus-sized models — in the buff.

And now, the picture we’ve all been waiting for: seven plus-size knockouts — Crystal Renn, Lizzie Miller, Amy Lemons, Ashley Graham, Kate Dillon, Anansa Sims and Jennie Runk — all showing off what their mamas gave them.

In the article accompanying the photograph (and yes, all the models actually ate the catered food at the shoot!), Glamour writer Genevieve Field discusses the fashion industry’s obsession with weight, explaining that any model over a size 6 is often considered plus-size because she’s too big for the designer samples that typically run from a size 0-4.

Field also talks about the stigma associated with high-end designers producing garments over size 12, giving kudos to Michael by Michael Kors, Baby Phat and Isaac Mizrahi for Liz Clairborne — all brands that embrace size 14 and above.

As Glamour editor-in-chief Cindi Leive writes on her blog, the staff is completely behind the push for a “body image revolution,” which will include a commitment “to featuring a greater range of body types in our pages,” she writes, “including in fashion and beauty stories (traditionally the toughest areas for even the top ‘plus-size’ models to crack).”

It seems even the stunning Scarlett Johansson, who appears on Glamour’s November cover, has been slightly upstaged by the bevy of beauties wearing even less than the sans pants actress/singer. And that takes a lot! Pick up the November issue to get your Johansson fix.

Glamour’s readers were torn between this new agenda to see more women like themselves in magazines versus the more idealized skinny versions. Where do you stand?
