So is the frustration that they hired a plus sized model who people would elect to fuck? Is plus sized a code word for unhealthy/ugly now?
boxermotorsarecool
She is 6'4'' she is definetly plus sized.
imthebossofyou
I def could see her being considered plus size...why is everyone so sensitive?

Plus sized does not mean fat with rolls all over

Maybe...just maybe....plus size doesn't mean fat. The girl is well above 6 foot

I have worked with my fair share of professional models to know that most of them have or will develop an eating disorder. 1/2
Every single one has been super smart girls, but fallen under pressure. Fuck the fashion industry and their standards.

I'd rather just see more body types being shown in ads. I get what everyone is saying here, I'm just more for impulsivity. Less airbrushing.
Inclusivity is a word, phone. Come on, don't play me like this.
BreadyStinellis
I gotta say, call her whatever the fuck you want, it's refreshing to see a woman who looks like me (but like, better still) rocking a swim
Suit on a cover. As an average person, which the modeling world usually does not represent at all, it's nice to see.
Turtle42
Unpopular opinion but whilst I would NEVER call her a "plus sized woman", she is very clearly a "plus sized model". Context is key.
SlowMo4219
Size 12 IS plus size. I only know because I attempted plus modeling about 10 years ago. 12 and up is plus. Her height isnt the issue.
pauljs75
I know right? She looks great. Better than the models that show too many bones making you wish they'd be prescribed a few cheese-burgers.
Ophiukus
As a counter point, if the model identifies as “plus sized” and that’s how she reaches her audience should we allow her that right?
arachnoides
Of course.

jery007
okay. I agree with the message but... doesn't her head look really small?
DangerTrain
She's 6'4", guy. Her body is just bigger.
weilong
They're probably calling her that because she used to look like this: /a/LleDw">https://imgur.com/a/LleDw and this: https://imgur.com/a/yKq6g
JavaBeanJohnny
That's only a little extra chub. Still seems average to me
tospik
Her proportions are fit. But she’s 6’2”, so she’s an objectively huge female at any weight.
Amazing to me how often stating objectively true facts gets downvoted here.
drakewarnock
Are you trying to tell us you think those pictures are of a plus sized woman?
BDF1838
It's large for a model, and large for a woman. It's not fat for her size. Obese isn't plus-sized, fat isn't normal.
themosthellas
Neither of which seem plus sized, though. At least not to me.
ch1m
It's objectively overweight.
n0n53n53
how is she "objectively overweight" neither of these pictures show her weight
You can look at someone and see that they are fat.
I guess, but what's that have to do with the subject?
capughe
Of course she's not a fat lady, but can we not make like "plus sized = ugly whale" while making the terminology complaint?
It's sad when the models representing plus size women are not plus size, and those for average women are unhealthily thin. I'm not saying 2/
All plus sizes are healthy sizes but it is possible to be beautiful at above average sizes, and healthy at 14-16 depending on your frame.
This woman could very well be plus size (14) given her height.
DrSparken
She's 12, and that makes her closer to underweight than overweight. That's absurd to call plus size.
Plus size stores start at size 14 that's all I'm saying. Altering my view a little here, but others are right in saying +size is just 1/2
ElsoKukaba
She's about a foot taller than an average woman, maybe plus sized isn't code for fat?
Plus size is not code for fat, but fat people think it is.
Have you ever shopped for women's clothing before?
Tazmo523
But I thought men were the ones who decided women body standards
ProcrastinatorPython
Because all men are pigs and will only fuck women with thigh gaps...riiiight.
Men fuck. There are no limiting factors except what their friends/family would say if they found out
rosiethereaver
You seem confused and defensive; saying that men set beauty standards for women is not the same as saying all men are pigs.
ohdeepthought
If you do it right every woman should have a thigh gap ;)
CamelSpotter
Dieting for thigh gaps always seemed unhealthy to me. Besides, I personally prefer thicker thighs. Hell, my first gf played volleyball.
goodgirlfaith
everyone is saying she's plus sized because she's tall doesnt really know how women's clothing works: plus sized clothes start at size 16 1/
(well 16 in most cases, it can vary brand to brand) and models are usually considered plus sized once they get into double digit sizes, 2/?
and there's a huge difference between the two and THAT'S what people are upset about. Model plus size vs real life plus size 3/3
also yes the term plus sized can mean tall, but literally never does
So it can but "literally never", sounds like you don't know what "literally" means because THE IMAGE.
Tyrannotron
Lane Bryant is probably the most popular plus sized clothing company, and their size chart starts at 10. She's a size 12. Seems fine to me.
Because it's pointless for a company to lock itself into *only* larger sizes and lose the rest of the market. The point of being a plus- 1/
They call all of their sizes plus sized, and if they wanted the rest of the market share, they'd offer sizes below 10.
size company is just that they do them at *all*. The 10s are not plus sizes - for an average height woman, that's closer to underweight 2/
than overweight. That *cannot* be plus-size. 3/3
MadMupp
But thats a plus sized 'model' not a plus sized standard person. The modelling world has different standards to everyday life
Kronzor
Her size is in the positives! AKA greater than zero. Regular models are negative sized.
FyreFaux
Well, she is 6'4"
fencer1964
Which leads us to the question, “why is that?”
Slash0mega
and that is why pr shouldn't use industry lingo.

Yeah but they also label women who have a more than healthy portion of fat as a plus size model.

You'd expect clothing models to be people who can model what clothes look like on people.

Totally. But people are getting fed up with that. And a car stuck in traffic is at least not warping ideas on what a car should be like.
ExTechOp
Most clothing designers seem to make clothes for shapeless waifs. As if though they were more interested in prepubescent boys than women?
Well, yeah. That's what people are unhappy about though. That models, modelling clothes for regular people, don't remotely represent them.
BhawbTheMagnificent
A model's job isn't to show you what a fat American eating a deep fried twinkie will look like in a bikini, but show the bikini at its best.
I thought it was to show off clothes and help a company play off peoples insecurities to help sell more units.
absolutelyNotAnAlien
If anything it hurts them more. Can imagine how much more items would be sold if everyone felt confident buying certain types of clothes?
A bikini at it's best should be a bikini looking good on a range of models. Not necessarily the unhealthy extremes of the spectrum, but a
This is a crazy concept, but attractive people will always look better in clothes than less attractive people.
Yeah, but you can get someone who is attractive who is not plastic barbie copy. Clean skin, nice hair, symmetrical face, maybe something
Range of body shapes still, and without labelling one better or worse than the others. It really isn't that difficult.
InDogsWeTrust
But... by definition a model's job is to display clothes (that a standard person is to wear). So the standards should be exactly the same.
Yup
InfamousDizz
Lol have you ever watched a fashion show? No standard person would ever wear any of that shit.
hahah... excellent point.
alexjonesisagayfrog
No she supposed to look the best in those clothes
kuschelnom
Okay but if those same clothes look worse on us normal people, wouldn't we want clothes which look the best on US?
richlion3
With as much marketing research as is done, I suspect if that were true it would be done. People buy what they want to be, not what they are
That's a good point :)
No because the human brain is useless garbage that doesn't think like that it goes "she looks good I will too"
alexzaz
She is litteraly a massive woman. The problem is society views "plus size" as a synonym for fat instead of what it actually is... a large.
drfarren
Because Odin forbid you name a clothing section "fat women"
hyptosis
Yeah, I could tell she was a 'big' woman by her head and shoulder/hip proportions. Still a fox of course, but just tall.
TheRealTrunkbutt
Actually we have a word for that, though. It's 'tall'.
In women's clothing the word is plus size.
Psile
I wonder why that is? Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that 'plus size' has been fashion code for fat for a long time.

FutureFriedman
This has nothing to do with your giantess fetish. It has to do with the definition literally making her "plus size" compared to average.
Good point. Plus size does seem to be a pretty broad term.
Yeah, just a definition/word-use issue imo. If they'd said 'tall' or whatever no one probably would have bat an eye.

Until you get to plus sizes. That's why women's clothes have a long or tall sizing as well and offer petite sizes.
Like I said, definitely not the case with the clothing we sell.
What clothing do you sell? Because I'm 5'5 and a size 2 and a size 8 is no longer on me than a size 2 in any brand.
Larger width, which obviously is to accommodate fatter people.

WarTowels
Maybe the term "Plus Sized" needs to change, since it apparently confuses so many people. Still... she has 50+ lb and 6" on me...
IncognitoPanda

women's plus size clothing stores start normally at a UK size 14/16 so that's your argument down the drain.

At that height she's certainly "plus-sized" in a technical sense but not at all in the way that term is widely expected to be used.

I believe in high fashion plus sized starts at an 8 because they won't fit in sample sizes which are usually 0-4

busybee
BMI for height/weight is normal, *but* BMI doesn't account for muscle or other health indicators, so it's not a reliable measure of health.
AlLocke4
A guy that is 6’4” with a 32” waist (equivalent of a woman’s size 12) does not need to shop at Big and Tall stores. Sauce: I know stuff

Here we have someone who understands weight distribution.
submergedsurrealist
Plus sized in women's clothing refers to larger sizes not really height but in width for the most part
paulthecat01
1/2 This is true however, when you are 6 ft tall or taller you tend to go up in width to proportion your body properly. If you had someone
2/3 who was 7 feet tall and a size 0-6 in woman’s clothing they would look absolutely anorexic. Proportion
3/3 dictates the taller you are the larger you are width wise as well.

But in fashion that would be sold as "tall" not plus.

what does height have to do with bikini sizes then?

Plus sized in modeling isn't the same as plus sized in clothes. She isn't plus sized in a store. She's plus sized in a designers show room
rohittee1
I think the issue is people equate plus sized with fat. It has effectively been turned into another word for fat as far as most people are
concerned.I can see whythis got the reaction it got.Also can't tell how tall she is in the pic, you don't normally link plus sized w/ height
c0smicj0ker
This. This is such an issue. And it's sad that women have to feel ashamed about shopping for clothes that fit them because people

Plus sizes in any store I’ve ever been to starts size 18-20, so a bigger girl. Not a tall skinny one.

Plus-sized in modeling has meant weight for decades. I don’t think anyone “doesn’t understand the word,” but rather understand the context.

Kyman201
Well dang. In that case, I can understand the use of 'Plus sized' being outside the norm for models. She's just a VERTICAL Plus-Size.
Most models are around 6'1", so no, it's her weight/bone structure.
capitainechips
Yes she's taller than normal so she is +++ than the rest and she wears bigger size as a result. Case closed
But she wouldn't even wear clothes that are in plus size category in normal store...
steikewaffel
they should call it Plus-height.
27yoUGLYvirgin
I can't believe nobody gets this. She's obviously not fat but from her head it's very obvious that she's got a proportionally "big' body.
Then call her a tall supermodel not plus size.
Plus size refers to literal clothing sizes dude. Seeing as generally that's what models are selling. Clothing. Stop thinking it means fat.
No it means a higher size. But people have many different proportions that make them need to wear a size like that beyond being
"Fat"
Right but when the industry refers to a model as plus size they are using the industry term. Which refers to the clothing sizes they wear

Plus sized means fat.
In the US it seems to.
except thats the whole point. it doesn't.
I have never seen a plus size section, in any store, have any clothing catering to tall, it’s always just wider, at least in the states.
thats because the style difference between most women's clothes and most mens clothes. Tailoring and Dressmaking are totally different.
Idk what your saying, big&tall and plus size are not synonymous. Plus size = more inches width wise, for women, which is what this is about
I'm not sure where you're from, but it the US it definitely does. Models are usually tall regardless.
the whole point of the problem is that she isn't in any sense, "fat", she is tall and fit, and being labeled as plus-size.
Yes, for a model she is. She's a size 12, not plus sized in the real world, plus sized in a designers show room or on a runway
I think we agree... But she's being called plus-sized for being "fat."
LinkinPiper
Quick lookup, she’s 6’2 (188cm) and apparently 185lbs (84kg). Yields approximately 23.76BMI (fat/muscle% unaccounted for).
23.75** so she’s like .25 away from being overweight from BMI scale... but going by looks, I sincerely can’t tell. She looks fit to me :/
theres way more than that much variance in how you carry it. BMI is terribly inaccurate for people who aren't very average.
True and I didn’t mean it to be “the standard”, but so are average sizes of models. But at least now we have actual #’s for height/weight.
Oblivionjake
Actually the bmi scale is spot on for anyone who isn't very muscled. If you don't have a lot of muscle the extra weight is from being fat.
I don't think you appriciate how much variance there is in how people are built. are you really suggesting the person in the above
Fitness has nothing to do with plus sizes. It just means above the average model size. And as a tall women her proportions put
Her at a size 10-14 from what I read. So plus size. Plus size =\= overweight always
Proportions based on fashion industry.
Of course it does, either they’re not fit enough or do not fit their model scale. Fitness plays a role one way or another.
Those are two different definitions of "fit" to me she looks in healthy shape despite being a size 14. Which is far above the

Unpopular opinion but whilst I would NEVER call her a "plus sized woman", she is very clearly a "plus sized model". Context is key.
SlowMo4219
Size 12 IS plus size. I only know because I attempted plus modeling about 10 years ago. 12 and up is plus. Her height isnt the issue.

I know right? She looks great. Better than the models that show too many bones making you wish they'd be prescribed a few cheese-burgers.

All plus sizes are healthy sizes but it is possible to be beautiful at above average sizes, and healthy at 14-16 depending on your frame.
capughe
This woman could very well be plus size (14) given her height.
DrSparken
She's 12, and that makes her closer to underweight than overweight. That's absurd to call plus size.

Plus size stores start at size 14 that's all I'm saying. Altering my view a little here, but others are right in saying +size is just 1/2

everyone is saying she's plus sized because she's tall doesnt really know how women's clothing works: plus sized clothes start at size 16 1/

(well 16 in most cases, it can vary brand to brand) and models are usually considered plus sized once they get into double digit sizes, 2/?

and there's a huge difference between the two and THAT'S what people are upset about. Model plus size vs real life plus size 3/3

Lane Bryant is probably the most popular plus sized clothing company, and their size chart starts at 10. She's a size 12. Seems fine to me.

Tyrannotron
They call all of their sizes plus sized, and if they wanted the rest of the market share, they'd offer sizes below 10.
DrSparken
size company is just that they do them at *all*. The 10s are not plus sizes - for an average height woman, that's closer to underweight 2/

than overweight. That *cannot* be plus-size. 3/3

HorribleWifey
Well 6'4" is tall..
pfffffffffffff
She's tall for sure, but plus size clothing is only wider not taller.
Baron69MadmaN
I don't get the wired way you guys measure things, can someone tell me how tall is 6'4 in the real world? (metric system)
TigerSauce
1.93 meters tall
IDidNotHitHerItsNotTrue
Google could have quicker than it took you to type that.
TimeFoDat
I was gonna say she looks to be extremely tall just based on her proportions. But it's still a stupid label—ignorant of the status quo.
JudgeMentalCat
It's like saying "we need more coffee in the break room" "Well I've got decaf- it's technically coffee!"
TimeFoDat
No quicker way turn an entire room against you. I suspect a fair amount of workplace violence has been caused by decaf coffee.
TimeFoDat
At that height she's certainly "plus-sized" in a technical sense but not at all in the way that term is widely expected to be used.
LeglessPez
My arse. I'm 6 ft 3 and basically about her build and I don't need a big & tall
edcstrings
How are you 6 ft 3 if you are legless?
LeglessPez
Very long torso. It's all about proportions!
BreadyStinellis
Are you a man? Because I'm a 5'9" woman and I need the tall section.

I’m an idiot. Thanks.
LeglessPez
That is correct
SmallHandsBigPenis
Plus size in women’s clothing is not big and tall. It is strictly wider. Tall woman have to find brands that offer a tall version of reg.
Iamthemonkeymansowhatevercats
As a 6'2" skinny guy. I feel your pain. Large is too short but XL just gets fatter, not longer.
SmallHandsBigPenis
It’s not as bad for me I’m not super tall, but it’s still not easy) but my cuz, who I grew up with is 6’3” and it’s awful for her.
Iamthemonkeymansowhatevercats
Yeah, I know two 5'10" girls and they complain about finding clothes. 6'3" holy cow that's gotta be hard to find clothes.
SmallHandsBigPenis
Yeah, clothes and shoes, she was 6’ and had size 11 feet at 11yo, so self conscious, I felt awful for her. But she’s beautiful so that helps
jixathejinx
Fuck u Cosmo. I'm 5'9", weigh 135lbs, and wear a size 10-12. How in the fuck am I considered plus sized?
bronypokey6918
Well you arent fat if thats what you are worried about
BreadyStinellis
I believe in high fashion plus sized starts at an 8 because they won't fit in sample sizes which are usually 0-4
Orion1453
I'm honestly asking a question here. Is that weight healthy?
Thesilverqueen311
even though charts would say otherwise
BreadyStinellis
Depends on build. I'm 5'9", 165 (same height, 30lbs heavier) and also a 10/12, also within a healthy BMI. *shrug* Bodies, man.
Calistrasza
It's a little skinny, tbh. I'm 5'2", my ideal weight should be around 125-130. I won't tell you what I weigh, but it ain't healthy atm.
blueblueglassmoon
Definitely slim, but certainly not dangerous.
Thesilverqueen311
It's healthy, or definitely can be. I'm 5'8" and fluctuate between 126-135lbs I'm a size 4 but I'm also skinny curvy. I'm not too skinny
busybee
BMI for height/weight is normal, *but* BMI doesn't account for muscle or other health indicators, so it's not a reliable measure of health.
AlLocke4
A guy that is 6’4” with a 32” waist (equivalent of a woman’s size 12) does not need to shop at Big and Tall stores. Sauce: I know stuff
MoltenBerle
If we’re doing equivalencies, a guy would have to be about 6’10” to be in the same height percentile as a 6’4” woman.

Most “regular” size models are between 5’ 11” and 6’ 4”. They are not talking about her height here. Let’s be real.
IdeaOfLove
She seems to have very wide shoulders, tho.
PatrikLilja
I'd say that she is big for being a female model.

no, those are tall models. average model height is 5'8" to 6'0". but lets be real its not about height.

IHateCaptchaCodes
From my experience (at least in UK & Europe), casual clothes are fine but suits and shirts become problematic - 6’5 110kg (say 250 lbs ish)
IHateCaptchaCodes
Basically I have a rugby-player sort of build so I have to order shirts and suit jackets a few sizes larger due to my shoulders!
nuushba
I'm only 6'2 and 282lbs. The clothes at big and tall sections are for people way fatter than I am, even when I was 317lbs
Ginkawa
I'm in that range of size, and its an awkward size because its too big for "regular" but not by a huge margin.
nuushba
I've been ordering my shirts online from Duluth Trading Post for years because they do the extra long shirts

Well I don't know what your weight is, so maybe that's the difference

6'8" 240lb here. Same. Big and tall is more for the BIG you only get for tall when it comes to suits.

6'4 is waaaaay taller for a woman than 6'5 is for a man.

6'3 275 and huge quads make my life difficult. My waist is only a 34, but quads require me to wear a 38-40. Such is life

Also 6'5" 220ish, my waist is 34-36. Most B&T shops start at 38 to 40 waist. No good if you're just tall.

how do you get sleeve lengths that work and shirts that are long enough to be tucked in. Pants to the navel are an option, but looks dumb.

Kimberoo
Here we have someone who understands weight distribution.
submergedsurrealist
Plus sized in women's clothing refers to larger sizes not really height but in width for the most part
paulthecat01
1/2 This is true however, when you are 6 ft tall or taller you tend to go up in width to proportion your body properly. If you had someone
paulthecat01
2/3 who was 7 feet tall and a size 0-6 in woman’s clothing they would look absolutely anorexic. Proportion
paulthecat01
3/3 dictates the taller you are the larger you are width wise as well.
booboobabybox
She’s a size 12, which is readily available at “normal sized” clothing stores and almost no “plus sized” stores. You’re right that she’s a
MissMockingbird
Shes about 6'2 and 165 lbs. Thats not plus sized, thats tall. Sauce: celebritytall.com.

ASMRuVeganYet

tortilaconqueso
Right, if she was 6-8 inches shorter and the same weight then people would see what most people see when one thinks of “plus sized”
ShutUpBilly
But in fashion that would be sold as "tall" not plus.
BreadyStinellis
She's not even tall for a model. She's average.
Unquote
what does height have to do with bikini sizes then?
rawbske
Say whaaaat? She isn't fat, but is plus sized and people are triggered by a fucking word they don't understand?
BreadyStinellis
Plus sized in modeling isn't the same as plus sized in clothes. She isn't plus sized in a store. She's plus sized in a designers show room
rohittee1
I think the issue is people equate plus sized with fat. It has effectively been turned into another word for fat as far as most people are
rohittee1
concerned.I can see whythis got the reaction it got.Also can't tell how tall she is in the pic, you don't normally link plus sized w/ height

BreadyStinellis
Most models are around 6'1", so no, it's her weight/bone structure.
capitainechips
Yes she's taller than normal so she is +++ than the rest and she wears bigger size as a result. Case closed

But she wouldn't even wear clothes that are in plus size category in normal store...

they should call it Plus-height.

I can't believe nobody gets this. She's obviously not fat but from her head it's very obvious that she's got a proportionally "big' body.

HighFunctioningAlcoholic
Plus sized means fat.
bigdaddyfatpants
In the US it seems to.
Ginkawa
except thats the whole point. it doesn't.
SmallHandsBigPenis
I have never seen a plus size section, in any store, have any clothing catering to tall, it’s always just wider, at least in the states.
Ginkawa
thats because the style difference between most women's clothes and most mens clothes. Tailoring and Dressmaking are totally different.
SmallHandsBigPenis
Idk what your saying, big&tall and plus size are not synonymous. Plus size = more inches width wise, for women, which is what this is about
HighFunctioningAlcoholic
I'm not sure where you're from, but it the US it definitely does. Models are usually tall regardless.
Ginkawa
the whole point of the problem is that she isn't in any sense, "fat", she is tall and fit, and being labeled as plus-size.
BreadyStinellis
Yes, for a model she is. She's a size 12, not plus sized in the real world, plus sized in a designers show room or on a runway
HighFunctioningAlcoholic
I think we agree... But she's being called plus-sized for being "fat."
LinkinPiper
Quick lookup, she’s 6’2 (188cm) and apparently 185lbs (84kg). Yields approximately 23.76BMI (fat/muscle% unaccounted for).
LinkinPiper
23.75** so she’s like .25 away from being overweight from BMI scale... but going by looks, I sincerely can’t tell. She looks fit to me :/
Ginkawa
theres way more than that much variance in how you carry it. BMI is terribly inaccurate for people who aren't very average.
LinkinPiper
True and I didn’t mean it to be “the standard”, but so are average sizes of models. But at least now we have actual #’s for height/weight.
Oblivionjake
Actually the bmi scale is spot on for anyone who isn't very muscled. If you don't have a lot of muscle the extra weight is from being fat.
Ginkawa
I don't think you appriciate how much variance there is in how people are built. are you really suggesting the person in the above
c0smicj0ker
Fitness has nothing to do with plus sizes. It just means above the average model size. And as a tall women her proportions put
c0smicj0ker
Her at a size 10-14 from what I read. So plus size. Plus size =\= overweight always
LinkinPiper
Proportions based on fashion industry.
LinkinPiper
Of course it does, either they’re not fit enough or do not fit their model scale. Fitness plays a role one way or another.
c0smicj0ker
Those are two different definitions of "fit" to me she looks in healthy shape despite being a size 14. Which is far above the
