PLUS-SIZE???





Plus-size model Crystal Renn is featured in the pages of V Magazine's Size Issue.The spread, shot by Terry Richardson and styled by Mel Ottenberg, put Renn alongside the traditional model body-type of Jacquelyn Jablonski, in identical looks and similar poses. Both ladies stand five-foot-nine, but Renn's dimensions are 36-31-41, while Jablonski is 32-24-34.

Renn told the AP in an interview, "I'd like to see everyone take on the attitude that there are women of all different shapes and sizes as 'the beauty ideal,' and that it's not one type or another. There are women who are naturally a size 2--you can't forget them, and that's discrimination the other way. All women bring something different to the table and we have to appreciate them all."
