Plus-sized Models are In While Skinny is Out

Well at least for this one store. A Boerum Hill boutique for plus-sized women is hosting a model search for women who are size 18 and bigger. Their goal is to find someone beautiful inside and out. Deb Malkin, the store owner, believes that plus-sized women are put down, so they are trying to create something positive for them.

By the way, the boutique's name is Re/Dress. To learn more about their model search, just call 718-522-7962 or visit www.redressnyc.com for more info.

@hhusted hurrah for this ,maybe this is a trend in the making though I do think skinny models will always be in demand- clothes hang better of them you see .
I was actually thinking of taking in a show of Colombian artist Fernando Bottero's works at the David Benrimon Fine Art Gallery on E 65th street. The artist is known for his pudgy figures some of which are in fact quite charming.

Pity that there has to be this separate category of "skinny" and "plus sized" - if models were at a healthier overall average weight, the dichotomy perhaps wouldn't be so striking, and it would be possible to promote a healthy range of body weights without it being either "you're a size 00" or "you're obese" as default modes.

NYers are really skinny, though, I've noticed, compared to other places I've lived (Paris, Rome, Oxford). It does seem that NY restaurants are diet conscious: small portions, healthy, if sometimes fussy ingredients, etc. I once went to a pizzeria in Morningside Heights and had to try to convince them to give me pizza WITH gluten!

Bottero's really charming, uptowngirl. Lucian Freud is also pretty unapologetic about painting figures in all their shapeliness. His last big exhibit in NY was at the MOMA in 2008.

@ajadedidealist I do agree that NYkers are much fitter than most other Americans but portion sizes in restaurants( i dont mean fast food restaurants) here are by no means small. When my ma in law visits from London that's one of her main complaints she gets put off by the large portions that are served here. I often tell her that the doggy bag is an accepted way of NYC life but she refuses to wrap her mind around it ..

Hey, uptowngirl, and ajadedidealist, you think New Yorkers are skinny. That may be true, but have you been to Long Island. I took a trip out there recently and, my goodness, what fat people I saw. It seems the people in the suburbs are heavier and more out of shape than city people. I believe that is because city people do a lot of walking, while those in the suburbs depend on their cars to get around.

@Uraniumfish: The obesity level in this country is very bad. In fact, it is one of the biggest health concerns in the United States. Everywhere you look, you see ads for food. And when you go out to eat, they like to stuff it down your throat. No wonder so many people are fat.

You notice it coming from Europe, that Americans are shockingly fat. NYC is better, probably because so many people are so image-conscious here. But in the rest of the US I have routinely spotted some incredibly large butts and guts on the streets. Incredibly large.

@Uptowngirl: That is the purpose of commercials. They want you to go out and spend the money on food so you get the food industry rich. They do this so you will be forced to invest in diet pills so you can lose weight. Then once you lose the weight, they bombard you with ads again to force you to eat. It is one vicious cycle. You need discipline to avoid the cycle.

I feel, that while there a lot of thin people here, I don't know that it's because of the food. I'm from California, and when I moved here, I had a really hard time adjusting to how heavy the food is. I feel like the lighter options are really limited compared to what I was used to eating. I'll grant you, I walk so much more than I ever have; but, it seems like even finding a salad (outside of chop't) that isn't chock full of pine nuts and cheese is kind of a chore.

People are deluded if they think they can just loose weight by popping pills, it takes a huge effort and essentially involves reducing your intake and upping the amount of physical activity that you do.

@JenMac the delis around where I live offer salad bars that allow you to make your own salad combos in that way you can avoid all usual the diet saboteurs. One of my current favorites is spinach with oranges and cranberries..

Back to the original topic at hand - I don't think skinny models are going to be "out" anytime soon. And plus sized models are definitely not "in," as hhusted noted there are few places that endorse them -but lately there are a few curvy women appearing on covers, like Christina Hendricks on New York mag: http://abcnews.go.com/Entertainment/christina-hendricks-mad-men-star-unwitting-poster-girl-brand-beauty/story?id=9852957

Anyway, every few years or so the fashion industry declares curvier women fashionable, but so far - since the rise of the model with the eating disorder - it hasn't really panned out.

Wow, Christina Hendricks is absolutely gorgeous! But she's an anomaly - fashion models have been insanely skinny for a while now. "Healthy-sized" was in in the 80's (think of athletic models like Brinkley and Crawford) but I think we're stuck with waifs for the time being. Though CH can outclass them all, and not just in size.

@hhusted the weight of a skinny model has been quite a controversial topic over the past few years in places like Milan, Madrid and Barcelona there have been bans instituted on underweight models. However extremely think models created quite a stir at the Sao Paulo Fashion week recently
-http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/01/22/extremely-thin-models-cau_n_432815.html. In spite of this I don't think the size 00 model will disappear anytime soon simply because designers think that clothes hang better on them than their curvier sisters. So a the skinny model is not a fad but sadly the curvy model definitely is no matter how many appreciative comments she elicits.

@Uraniumfish Karl Lagerfeld's statement on Twitter are so contrived an self-conscious. Like he's trying too hard to be an artist.

@Everybody Last summer I went went to the beach with a big group of friends. One of the women was considered very beautiful and she was model-skinny. She's a well-known musician and people make a big deal over her. Anyways, my eye was definitely roving over to the women in the group in their bikinis. You know, you can't help a little innocent looking. I have to say that I found her skinniness TOTALLY unattractive. She looked scary without her clothes on, like a corpse. You could see her ribs. Yuck! Not for me.

So I have to disagree with Karl Lagerfeld and say I love to look at women with a little flesh on them and find that very very beautiful.

When stores or designers use fit models for non-couture clothing, they usually use a girl who is about a size 5 or 6 - normal, in other words. So couture is one thing, but when clothes are made for the rest of us they are actually made with the average woman in mind.

No, uptowngirl, it isn't you. The manufacturer uses different kinds of materials. They often treat the materials in special chemicals so it looks and feels a certain way. This is why you can try on a pair of pants from one rack and it fits right, and take a pair of pants from another rank from a different manufacturer, and it won't fit, but it is the same size.

@uptowngirl I know exactly what you mean - and I hate when stores use "vanity" sizing. As in, regularly I'm a 4/5, but I'm a 2 in stores that use vanity sizing. Like making me a smaller size at your store is actually going to make me want to shop there more! I seriously doubt that your body is weirdly made, more like the clothes are weirdly made. I try everything on, too, and I won't buy anything at a store that doesn't have a decent return policy.

I had this complicated discussion with a sales clerk at Banana republic, because they use two sizing systems--one is obviously the vanity sizing as you pointed out. In one system I was a 4, in another system I was a 2. I really really needed that shirt but in another color, and the conversation about placing the order turned into a comedy routine. Gaaa. Why do they have to make it so complicated? I'm perfectly okay with the thought of being a 4 and never asked to be coddled.

Or, let's say, if I were ashamed of my size, THINKING myself into a smaller size aint gonna change reality.

That's really strange - I sometimes pick up the petite version of things - especially pants, because even though I am average height they tend to make pants sooooo long. I am usually a 4 in petite sizes, though, as well as "short" jeans. I guess it all depends on what numbers the store feels like putting on the tags.

So yeah, the only difference I've noticed in petites is that the pant legs and sleeves tend to be shorter.

When I read everyone's comments about clothes sizes, I have to agree that in most cases, the clothes are usually designed differently by each manufacturer. So when one type of clothing fits well, another one of the same size won't. Strange way to make clothes, but that seems to be the way it is. I guess that is a lure to get people into the store.

Actually, ajadedidealist, extra virgin olive oil is the best. Olive oil is made up of about 71% monounsaturated, 16% saturated, and 13% polyunsaturated oils. When going for this type of oil, try to go for the one that has “extra virgin” on the label. Extra virgin refers to when the olives are pressed first. This allows the antioxidants to stay in the olive. Extra virgin olive oil is not manufactured like other oils. Therefore, it does not contain harmful industrial solvents.

By the way, your mother is right about it helping lose weight, because it doesn't contain the fatty stuff that puts weight on you.
