The November issue of Glamour Magazine features a stunning photo of plus-size models in the buff. Alas, copywright issues prevent me from posting it here, but you can find it.
In this article Genevieve Field writes about the fashion industry's obsession with weight, explaining that models larger than size 6 are often considered plus-size because they don't fit into the designer samples, usually sizes 0-4.
See my reading of the Josefina Lopez play, "Real Women Have Curves," NEXT WEEK IN PETALUMA where this issue is discussed by beautiful, ample Latinas at Estela's Sewing Factory.
