While I question the plus-sized designation on some of these women (one is a size 10, which is plus-sized only in the insane world of fashion), I love these elegant spreads from an Australian magazine called Madison. A shout-out to Australian blogger Julie Parker for linking them on her blog, Beautiful You.

That is so pretty. I love seeing things like that. I do think it's weird that "plus-size" designations are given to models who don't technically wear plus-size clothes. It always used to frustrate me to go into a plus-size store or department and look at the models and still not look anything like them. It made it very demoralizing to go shopping. I think we should appreciate all body types, and I'm glad these women can get modeling work period, it's just kind of a strange message being put across.
Yeah, I know what you mean. The fashion world is a strange place.
these images kind of make me think...
about myself, which is too self-centered, but... WHAT IS THE IDEAL WEIGHT?
is it the one you're comfortable to be at? i look great, healthy BMI, just a bit extra fat and not enough muscles for my age. but i am still uncomfortable with the way i am.
gosh, this is too confusing. where are my judgments and where are society's? or are they the same?
Thankyou for that kind link and mention. xo
Happy New Year, Harriet!
Thank you for this post.
I think these women are beautiful.
