But I thought we all collectively loved her?! I thought “21” was the best selling album of 2011!?
Fashionistas, why don’t you like Adele?
Tyra Banks is 100% behind this initiative as someone who turned her “curves into a curveball.”
Tyra posted an open letter to models on the Daily Beast where she recalls her own experiences loosing out on jobs for being a size four!
Vogue Italia posted a new manifesto that claims that Vogue editors will not “knowingly” use models under the age of 16, nor will they use models who “appear” to have eating disorders.
This is all in a new attempt to hopefully create a healthier body image for the girls in the pages of Vogue and it’s readers.
Page Six is reporting that Kate visited the Vogue offices to have a sit down with Anna Wintour.
Mother of four, the creator of the very successful Victoria Beckham line, and the wife of international footballer David Beckham - Vogue has all the details.
On her design philosophy:

The spread features some clothed shots and other nude shots, but the image that's come under serious pressure is one of her wearing unbuttoned hot pants and a cropped leather jacket that features the model contorting her body in such a way that shows off her protruding hip bone and nearly emaciated frame. The picture has popped up on pro-anorexia sites that use the photo as "thinspiration."

The girls appear on the cover of the mag, in a photoshoot snapped by Craig McDean.
Coming in second place are the young Fanning sisters, Elle and Dakota. While neither of them are even 18 years old yet, they both exude a sort of runway model confidence in everything they wear. Even though Elle is only 13, she’s always dressed in Valentino, Chanel, or Marc Jacobs.

Fashion’s Night Out is this event on September 8, 2011 where your favorite stores will stay open later and serve “refreshments” aka tiny cupcakes and cucumber water while you just go shopping at 9pm instead of during normal store hours. Basically, just be prepared for lots of tweeting from your most fashionable friends on this day.
So anyways, the entire Glee cast has been pegged as the FNO spokespeople and talked to Vogue about this honor.
The cast confesses that the only character with any sartorial sense was Chris Colfer’s character.

I might as well have said that the cover features a cat playing a piano because that’s as out of character for the fashion mag as placing a plus sized model on it’s cover.
The model, Robyn Lawley, is the first plus-sized girl ever to be featured on Vogue Australia. (She once covered Vogue Italia).

The heavier set actress has brushed off the snub from the magazine, but now she’s been hit again with criticism! According to PopEater, Anna Wintour isn’t interested in having Gabourey pose for her mag either. Vogue editors are used to having rail thin models on their pages, and won’t make an exception for an Oscar nominee.
"She's a joke in the fashion community. What she wore on the red carpet at the Academy Awards wasn't a dress, it was a tent," one editor said.
"Vogue is venue where designers debut their best new pieces. All are of which are one of a kind and sample size. It would be impossible to get a regular-sized girl in those clothes, let alone Gabby," another source explained.
That’s the fashion industry for you! Wintour herself has spoken out about young people’s weight issues, saying to Us Weekly, “There’s such an epidemic of obesity in the United States, and for some reason, everybody focuses on Anorexia. We need to spend money, time and education on teaching people to eat, exercise and take care of themselves in a healthier way. It [has gotten people] provoked, which is really the point.”
Do you think it’s fair that Gabourey isn’t getting the same treatment as other female stars her age? Or should she try and lose the weight?
