"Plus size retailers, skinny models." posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-11-23 12:48:40

Let me get this out of the way first - I don't hate skinny women. Whenever this topic comes up someone gets all pissed off and leaves a comment about how much I hate skinny women and that I'm a Mean Fatty. I'm sorry but no. I do not hate skinny women. That would be a little counterproductive to that whole "size acceptance" thing right? Right. Moving on. If you've spent time perusing the many and varied plus size retailers on the internet you'll notice that some of them use straight sized models. I have a major issue with this. Actually there are a few major issues: First it's impractical. The point of using a model is to show how the item of clothing will look on an actual human being as opposed to a dress form or hanger. That's why models are called "models." It's really hard to imagine how a dress will look on a plus sized body when the model is not plus sized or anywhere near it. I'm not sure but either way the logic is stupid. Looking at a fat person wearing an item of clothing that you might want to buy is not going to ruin your self esteem. If anything you'll be more down when you realize that um you don't look that skinny model once you get the clothes on your body. These retailers are trying to sell a fantasy. This is something all retailers do but it's a little screwed up to sell a fantasy of thinness to fat people when your job is to sell clothes to fat people. The two pictures above are from catalogs produced by the same companyand are generally geared towards an older buyer who may not be ready to look atfat people wearing clothes made for fat people. I'm sure their clothesare great but they need to move past the skinny model days and into thelight. Here's the irony - some of the companies that use skinny models are also the companies that carry the widest range of sizes. Is it better for them to say "Hey you're fat. Here are some clothesyou might want to buy and here are some plus size models to show youhow the clothes look on a fat body" or "Hey you're fat. Here are someclothes you might want to buy but we won't show you how they look onsomeone within your size range because you're so delusional that you'llbelieve that these models are just very small fat people." To be fair most plus size retailers now use plus size models even if they are pushing the definition of "plus size." The very nature of models and branding is all based in fantasy but it's nice when the fantasy is at least relevant to my realty even if just a little bit. Buy from retailers that use plus size models whenever you can. Some are more daring with their models than others. For instance uses models in a wide range of sizes while mass retailers like Lane Bryant stick to a conservative "plus" size. We should congratulate retailers like b&lu and encourage other retailers to follow their lead. Second if you're hopelessly devoted to a particular retailer who uses skinny models and you don't want to stop shopping with them tell their customer service all of the many reasons why they should use plus size models. And make sure to mention how happy you'd be to recommend their products to your friends.. if they could get past that whole skinny model thing. I had an interesting conversation yesterday with someone in charge of store development at a mall. When he asked me where I shopped. I told him that there really isn't much for me in his mall. I am out of the demographic for CJ Banks and Macy's has some plus sizes but not enough selection. When he asked what my dream store would be. I said Lane Bryant because for as much as I don't always love it it is the best place to get basics. His answer was surprising. He said that they have talked with LB off and on and that their new corporate strategy was not to locate LBs in malls but in stand-alone strip centers. Their reasoning? Fat women don't want to be seen shopping at LB. Nice. It's as though someone had a catalogue of bras made for women who were B cups and smaller and had them modeled by women who wore DD and DDD cups (necessitating that the "model" sizes be custom made to fit the models as they are not available in that size for real). But if Woman Within (the new name for the Lane Bryant Catalog which is no longer affiliated with the brick-and-mortar retailer of the same name) claims to have hard financial evidence that their clothes sell better when modeled on women who are 6 foot tall size 8s. I actually believe them. Why? Because putting some of those UGLY-ASS items (like muumuus emblazoned with pictures of dalmations and doggie bones) on a short fat model would expose them for the UGLY-ASSERY that they are instead of injecting the touch of "faux glamour" brought to them by 6-foot-tall skinny blondies who so many young fat girls yearn to resemble. On me however such marketing fooforaw does not work. I am not fooled into thinking I am 6 feet tall and a size 8 by seeing an item of clothing modeled on someone that size. It did not fool me as a size 12 and it especially does not fool me now. I am actually less likely to purchase clothing if worn by models who can't actually wear them IRL. If they can't be bothered hiring real plus-sized models why don't they just show the garment itself on a frigging hanger if necessary? I agree with meowser. The only things I buy from retailers/catalogs who refuse to show their clothes on plus-size models are slacks and bras because I know how those are going to look on me in spite of being shown on a thin model (slacks are slacks and the same can be said of bras once you find a style and size that actually fits). For tops. I know what styles look good on me and those are the ones I buy usually from Catherine's clearance racks because I can afford them and because Catherine's uses plus-size models in their catalog. I look at the websites of the ones who use plus-size models but I usually don't buy from them because I can't afford $40 or more for a top or $75 or more for jeans or slacks and no way can I afford $100 or more for a dress. I have to buy what I can afford and it has to be worked into my budget which means maybe a couple of times a year I can afford new clothes. By that. I mean 2 or 3 tops and 2 or 3 pairs of slacks/jeans (on sale) and 1 or 2 new bras and undies. I just discovered this blog and have enjoyed reading the archive. Silhouettes is guilty of doing this a lot as are several other catalog companies. Even pattern companies do this (I'm a sewer) which is beyond maddening. I remember reading an article about this issue a few years ago; someone from one of the plus-size catalogs (I want to say Lane Bryant but I'm not sure) said that they had tried showing the same garment on a larger and a smaller model and the item pictured on the smaller model consistently sold better. Of course. I have no proof that this is true but they claimed this is why they used smaller models. First.. thank you for the inspiration. I feel that sizism is a disease an that since we are not all made alike we need representation for every body size and shape. Primarily I came to this size because of the title "Pretty Pear" I'm a size 18/20 on the bottom and a size 14/16 at the top so buying anything for me in the way of dresses is a true struggle. At 5'2" I have to either have the items shortened or wear it long with an adjusted waist. I learned a long time ago that A-line dresses work best for me and to stick to skirts and blouse combinations. I have to have stream lined pants although I like the ones with the cargo style pockets and other embelishments. Also thank you to Rosalee for such inspirational fashions. I'd be happy to model for you anytime as a petite plus.

"Muslim priest blames women's clothes for men's sleepless nights" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-07-01 07:25:27

London. Nov 1 : A prominent Muslim priest has told Malaysian women to stop wearing figure-hugging clothes as they are giving Muslim men sleepless nights and distracting them from prayer. Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat a fundamentalist Muslim cleric attacked the appeal of modern Malaysian women and said that the provocative clothes were a form of 'emotional do by' for the men. Aziz said that the clothes which are considered modest by the Western standards were stopping the country's men getting a good night's sleep. "We always [hear about] the abuse of children and wives in households which is easily perceived by the eye but the emotional abuse of men cannot be seen," Times Online quoted him as saying. "Our prayers become unfocused and our sleep is often disturbed," he added. The priest's comments drew instant criticism from women's groups in the country. If women’s dressing disturbs him should not all men too feature the purda as handsome half naked men too would affect women’s sleep by appearing in their dreams? It is all in the eyes of the beholder and dreamer. Men in black perhaps? You only allow youself to unreasonabe thouhts when your idle mind is the devil’s workshop ! He must be having nightmares when he watches TV. Must ask him to go with his eyes closed in Malaysia.!! please do not cross the limit do not alter fun anything about Allah. HE has created us and we have responsibilty to regulate ourselves do not feel too proud of being beatiful both men & women should dress properly what ordain not be offending. Islam is the religion which sent the message of avoiding devils now a days what we see in most of the places womens beauty are being sold to make money even in the advertisement of a go vehicle it is not needed to put a half nude woman beside the car anyway most of the people like you think this is the freedom but its a freedom enjoyed by satan and its companions Allah created u so beautiful u should be grateful. Yet He commands u to only give u’r beauty to your husband and NOT to everybody. I dun think he should live in the jungle. It;s the nature of the jungle for the female to show off their beautiness to everyone in the jungle aye?And the word 'priest' sounds funny if it’s used to describe someone who is pious in Islam.. I’m a muslim and all I can say is that the muslims outside the middle east a far freaking radical then the ones in the lay east. These hacks blame women because they can’t control their peckers they blame women when dinner is not done even though they can make it themselves they blame women for pretty much everything. This all stems from the plain fact that the muslim mens perceives himself to be above women that a women is not his compete but his baby-producing-dick-sucking do work. At this express I’m trully horrified of what might become of Islam in the future. Long live Allah but more importantly desire live common comprehend. Actually if you read between the lines. Nik n most males that think like him are actually seeking our help. They are so very weak with the inability to control themselves against women n children. The slightest show of flesh would set them off. Pity these men luckily they were not around during our cave-dwellers measure. Male ego would not accept them to admit their weakness... therefore just accuse it all on women. I declare psychiatric help for all these men upon reaching puberty be introduced in their religous teachings. Dont accuse it on womens clothes blame it on the morals of men. I am a christian ex muslim who left running from a muslim man that could not act his privates in his pants and got three other women in malaysia pregnant and then.. has never taken compassionate of the children he bred. It is not the clothes but what is in the heads of men (both heads).

"Rosebud..." posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-28 13:19:48

Heavy BreathingI once told S2c this story of something that happened to me when I was a teenager. I was out shopping with my care at JC Penney. I was about 14 at the time. I remember walking through the women's clothing divide when I came across the most fabulous thing my 14 year old eyes had ever seen: on a pedestal was a mannequin wrapped in a shiny black vinyl 3/4 length trench cover. I loved it the minute I saw it. I wanted it. I was entranced by it and didn't know why. As we approached the display with awe and query in my express I said to my Mom. "Hey look at that!" She looked up and spat out "Ew it looks like that... S and M stuff."Without another evince we walked past that show and that wonderful disapprove of my desire. I knew from that one response alone that I could not discuss with my Mother the beauty and magic I saw in that bind of clothing. As I and many of my fellow pervs did when they were very young. I shut up and knew not to say anything else about how that garment made me feel. For those of you who undergo seen the Orson Wells enter Citizen Kane remember at the end how the audience finds out why our hero bought ferociously but never seemed satisfied?He filled his life with acquiring possession after possession acumulated all of these material possessions in his domiciliate and even had a store full of things he'd bought and never utilized. Turns out that when he was a kid he was denied that one disapprove. I accept it was a ride. He spent the rest of his life trying to fill that cancel he felt. I saw this recentlyand my heart started pounding. I am a clothes horse. I adjudge it. Whenever I undergo had the disposable income. I have indulged my hobby of acquiring "stuff." In the measure several months. I undergo come to cognise that I now have more stuff than I have lay in which to put it. I realize that while it is not the most pressing problem for a person to undergo seeing that black patent leather 3/4 lenght cover made me realize part of what is going on with me."Stuff" IssuesI have come to the conclusion that I am in a frenzy to get "stuff" because of something that is lacking inside me. There is something bigger that I want but since I cannot get it alter now (or believe that I cannot) I am substituting other things for that larger item. A while approve. I wrote a list of the things I want or want more of. Among those things was a wish for a house of my own. As I get closer to my goal it seems to get farther away. Patience is not always a strong point for me and the slow and steady pace of the home selection and domiciliate buying process is grating on my nerves. I accept that this is at the root of my frenzy. I will be meeting with a owe guru soon to sight out where I stand. In a small way the "stuff" frenzy is also that sense of missing out on an opportunity to get that shiny black vinyl trench coat when I was a teenager. I accept that is why I had such a visceral reaction to the coat pictured above. Don't get me wrong. I do plan to get it. I am still afterall a clotheshorse.

"The One-Breasted Woman Fashion Show: The Designer, Jacqueline Skaggs" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-06 10:20:09

No be how you pronounce it. Rebel1in8 and the Rhea Belle line of clothing and jewelry are revolutionary. Jacqueline Skaggs and I met through our cancer blogs and our mutual distaste for pink ribbon marketing (See ostracise October). She is a converge cancer survivor and also an artist and a jewelry and clothing designer. Jacqueline's clothing and her jewelry are political. The beading on the jewelry "represents the 2004 statistic 'one in eight women ordain be diagnosed with breast cancer,'" Jacqueline says. But the message is subtle. You can wear the jewelry because you be to alter a political statement about the growing numbers of women diagnosed with breast cancer or you can feature them because you desire the elegant designs or both. Jacqueline describes her clothing as "renovated make designed to include a women's natural architecture." She writes. "Rhea Belle is a post-mastectomy clothing concept born from a passion to act clothing for women who undergo had a hit or bi-lateral mastectomy and are moving forward without reconstructive surgery or prostheses. "With a utilitarian come Rhea Belle garments are created by renovating existing garments and create by mental act elements. Rhea Belle invites women to embrace their natural architecture with alleviate and peaceful resolve at every begin." In other words impel away that uncomfortable expensive prosthesis (typically a breast prosthesis costs $200-$300) and gets some fun funky clothes that make you conclude and look good about the body you have. Jacqueline does not discriminate: women who undergo not had converge cancer are accept to buy and feature her clothes as come up as those of us who are breast cancer survivors. Jacqueline was born in Indiana and now lives in a store in Brooklyn. New York with her husband John also an artist. She is "number eight" in a family of eight children and her identical agree sister lives in the loft next door with her preserve. "After my back up converge cancer diagnosis at the age of 40. I became a committed crusader--out to rally for dignity in a post-mastectomy world of oppressive conventions that lie deep in the folds of a go satin ribbon," she says. Go to her blog to see what Jacqueline has done with the annoying ubiquitous pink ribbon:
