Just wanted to share this little tidbit because it made me happy: In V Magazine's January 2010 issue there is a fashion story titled "One Size Fits All" where a traditional teeny-sized runway model (Jacquelyn Jablonski) and a 'plus' model (Crystal Renn) are photographed by Terry Richardson in the exact same Proenza Schouler outfit (among others) to show that clothing is equally beautiful on women of any size.
It's definitely not a new concept, and there's still a long way to go - but I'd like to applaud V for spreading the love to 'real' women and helping to create healthier body images for PYTs out there everywhere. Cheers.

I was very happy and definitely excited to see the teeny model along side of the plus model with the same outfit. This is what the fashion industry needs to follow. 95% of women are not teeny or over 5′8. I am also glad to see that you, Ms. Prommer, highlighting the article. Hopefully we can turn the fashion industry around to highlight the true woman/teen girl. Keep up the awesome work!! Happy Holidays!!!
