That's ridiculous. I can sort of understand normal as a 2, seeing that the consumers of the clothes can actually be a size 2. But it just seems wrong to use size 8 models for plus size clothing when usually (as far as I've seen and I'm no high fashion shopper) the girls shopping in the plus size section are size 14+. Silliness. Ugh. That’s ridiculous. I can sort of understand normal as a 2, seeing that the consumers of the clothes can actually be a size 2.

Silliness.

Normal in fashion is a 2. Obviously, it's very skewed. But fashion is a completely different world. It doesn't do well for us girls with distorted body image issues. “Plus” in fashion is consider 8+, I’d say. Normal in fashion is a 2. Obviously, it’s very skewed.

I thought 14 + is considered a plus size? ANTM is just fucking with our psyches! I once entered a plus size modeling contest. I didn't win. Of course. But still, I had a little dream for a bit there.
