It's taken me a few days to catch up on this, but it's headline news that during Paris Fashion Week, some curvy models were welcomed onto the runway for the first time. No, these women are not plus-size by any stretch of the imagination, but at least they're not sticks. Adriana Lima, Allesandra Ambrosio, even Elle Macpherson (she's 46, believe it or not!) all stomped. Of course, it makes sense that this development would eventually come to pass, taking into consideration what happened in 2006. Marc Jacobs stated that he set out to cast a variety of women for the show this time, "younger, older, thin, voluptuous." Props, Marc. Props.
