Bodies on Display

Who says a size 12 doesn’t look as good as a size 0?

The picture above is just part of a spread shot by Terry Richardson for V Magazine. The magazine will be on newsstands January 14, but for now you can preview it at Refinery 29. It will be interesting to see how this impacts the fledgling “real people as models” movement. From what I can see, Richardson (of all people!) makes a good case for the sexy non-stick hanger.

About angelgibson

I am a former big ad agency brand planner, running footloose and fancy-free through the streets of New York City. I read all those huge research reports that explain how and why consumers love or are indifferent to particular brands, the types of messaging that make them break out in night sweats, and the ONE thing you are not doing that your customers really wish you would. I read a lot of other stuff too. I write custom reports, design proprietary research, basically help my smart and fabulous clients become even more so.

    Thank you so much for this picture! I applaud you for joining in on the “real people as models” movement. I am a licensed mental health counselor writing a blog and book about body image based on what I have learned from my counseling clients. I have combined the psychology with humor to add an upbeat, fresh yet factual approach to body image. I would love your feedback. Check it out on http://www.cherriemac.wordpress.com.
