Dec 10 11 03:15 pm Link Dec 10 11 03:20 pm Link Hate having to do this, but... I am going to pull out the definition from newmodels.com: "General parameters for a plus model are height between 5'8" and 5'11", sizes 10 - 18. She must be a fit, toned, proportional hourglass, and have great skin and teeth, just like straight size fashion models." That model is nowhere near the size range and nowhere near an hourglass in shape. Putting models like her in the plus category is the reason why some people wrongly think "plus model" is the same as "BBW". (And before anyone goes ballistic on me about this, for the record, I am perfectly aware that I am not a plus model myself since a) I am borderline too short and b) I do not have an hourglass shape and do not fit into sample sizes because of it.)

They're one of those people who think only 16 and up are "real" plus size models, and they talk about the models in an almost erotic way ("the silky lusciousness of her arms", stuff like that). They also have an attitude of "only a dog would want a bone" "thin women are all disgusting anorexic skeletons". Plus, I was featured on that site once. As an example of a plus model that is too skinny to be called a plus model (and I'm a size 16 Dec 11 11 09:25 am Link A couple of pictures of the Anna Scholz white label collection for next summer, with Robyn Lawley.
