Isn't that, well, way beyond plus? I've never read of anything bigger than a size 18 referred to as being plus in agency terms.

I thought this thread was a positive one. Go ahead and make fun. I posted it on my FB page and lots of people loved it.

WTF, are you serious?

I'm not making fun, so stop being so defensive. Jesus. Do you understand this ad? The context, what's being sold and what's being said?

Research it. Her figure in NOT being celebrated in this ad, it is being made fun of.

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.)

No, but if you're going to hurl accusations at people, you better have your shit together and be ready for pushback.

What the ad is basically implying is that if their lingerie can make this fat woman look sexy and have that effect on men, then imagine what it can do for YOU.

THAT is why I said that she is being made fun of. I also read a few posts on that judgement of paris site, and I've got to say, there's a lot of "skinny women are evil anorexics" talk on there. It's sad.

I must of read the wrong forum/website AGAIN. Tumblr had no negativity, which in most cases it does. Nor, did the lingerie ad page itself on any of their web links to Facebook, Twitter, etc.

Here is one... they also have more photos.

http://www.judgmentofparis.com/board/sh … php?t=2340

So no I guess after reading so many positive things from the ad and from my own eyes I don't see the negative context you are referring too. That is my story and I am sticking to it.

Like I said have fun in this forum.

aside from the ad, I think judgement of paris is a bit of a scary forum. 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 big_smile)
i don't know, I don't like them. I have a different vision smile

about the ad: I don't think she is qualified as an agency plus model, but if she was happy to do it and is proud of the work she did and inspired a bunch of other people, then great!

Thank you so much for the inspiration!  As a new plus size model on the scene, its great to have a heavy photo post like this to reference style and posing for my body shape.  Ive saved about 100 pictures so far!  Wonderful learning technique, I cant wait to practice for hours in front of my mirror.  Keep them coming, please!

I have some work with Simply Be and Simply Yours coming up this month - I'll post it here as soon as it's completed and ready to go smile

I've also recently done a shoot for a corsetry company and alt girls who waist train, you have my respect! WOW. Seeing my body changed by a simple piece of clothing was so surreal - i can see why people get addicted to wearing them! Some of the photos may be submitted for publication and use online so i'll post if they are.
