I saw that on Facebook- and I am totally for it!
I've seen the article too.
I just think it is ridiculous that so many mannequins are such out of the ordinary sizes (a bit like Barbie) that clothing always has to be pinned together at the back to fit - even the smallest sizes. It's not like we want to celebrate obesity. But it would be nice if normal, healthy sizes were seen as acceptable in this society, and not as "plus size."
Oh - and have a look at these ads! Shows how much society has changed in 40 years or so. http://shine.yahoo.com/photos/back-women-wanted-fat-vintage-slideshow/too-skinny-fun-photo-2422636-192700427.html
Hi from ICLW...I would def prefer to look at the mannequin that is more realistic and she def does not look plus size more normal.
