I guess that makes me jumbo size, what with my BMI of "slightly overweight" :(
SkylaKitty
Ok, I get the fact that some stores cut their clothes a little bigger or smaller, but this...
Dreadfutopia
CK has some weird sizing
KimchiQueen
Are the last two frames from Hark, a Vagrant?
DigitalWaffle
In the arms
nosoupforoldmen
So the perception of gender is relative but the perception of weight isn't?
crgeen
This is the first real case of healthy at any wheat
RyanMarkey
It's a female.
myr14d
She's a size 10. Also, I'm pretty sure Calvin Klein didn't actually advertise her as a 'plus-size' (image is apparently a photoshop).
Mondwoestijn
If she's really a size 10, then she is probably really tall, because a size 10 is actually pretty big, but she diesn look big.
Lyrabelle
She is 5'11"
daftthoughts
The media labeled her plus size, CK didn't say she was ever.
Cerinna
She's skinnier than I am, and I'm a size 10. I'm also a bit on the skinny side on the upper body.
redfootedbooby
"Plus sized" = has big boobs
WhimsicalCalamari
apparently "plus size" because she's a size 10 since she's 5'10" (1.78 m) and 'small' sizes for that height are nigh nonexistent
MotionOfTheOcean
Most models are tall though, so going by height sounds off.
Taxicat
They're not even that big.
mynameisnotalice
She doesn't even have big boobs...
redfootedbooby
I realize this but a lot of the "normal" models are very tiny in both weight and boob size. They're
redfootedbooby
plus size in the sense that they have bigger boobs than a lot of models, which sucks.
mynameisnotalice
Yeah. Good thing this 'campaign' is a hoax.
redfootedbooby
I mean it is an issue in the modeling industry regardless...
petitedeath
That's ridiculous!!!????
Royaltykin
Tfw some people still try to reduce the stupid fat model shit
SoMenSayThatImIntenseOrImInsane
So, what does the non-photoshopped picture look like?
mrbadxampl
first CK model with a rack
ItsMorphinTimeIdiot
spaceasaurus
That's why she's "plus sized". Boobies.
LordNoodles
I love boobies!
HighwayStar
clothes designers don't. why they don't just design mens clothes, and thus avoid boobs, I don't know.
mrbadxampl
"just design men's clothes, and thus avoid boobs" um, not necessarily...
HighwayStar
lol 'plus-size' men models exist?
walkermayn
It's a bit ironic that plus size models exist because people don't want to be judged by their body, yet people are judging this girl's body
Dreadfutopia
more judging the industry's definition through observation
PMmeYourOutieBellyButtonAndForeskin
Well, anything more and she'd probably be considered obese by those standards.
ConwaySweaty
She's so damn skinny she's probably gotta run around the shower to get wet.
Capitalism
What if we just stop making clothes bigger than large, would that force people to loose weight?
MyCatLikesToFruitcake
She's probably just a big woman. As in tall, thus increases her proportions.
leathersmt
She don't look plus sized. I like curves.
SirNyeTheScienceKnight
Maybe she's just really tall, they can't even get all of her in one picture!
allergyprincess
She's 5"10
SiRoj90
I guess, mma feather weights don't weigh as light as feathers...
Katzendaugs
We don't really have a decent perspective here, her body may be toned but she could be like eight feet tall
ineptusMechanicus
Then she's not plus sized
Angatita
Then we need a new term for "tall" plus size means this http://designyoutrust.com/2013/06/viktoria-manas-victorias-secret-plus-size-model/
Derpfayce
So we need a banana for scale?
NotTheRealNPH
Now a days people forget big can also be vertical
SapphireLeto
I HOPE she's super tall, otherwise just about everyone is obese.
PizzaNigga420
She's 5'11
qPRdxH4UXm36HS9rJgLA
This is america nearly everybody IS obese
moxymox
But I get all my health information from reactionary tumblr cartoons based on zero-context headlines from 2014.
allergyprincess
She's 5"10
MotionOfTheOcean
Models are always tall or at least tall(ish). +-size means the weight scale size. It isn't used to refer to height. Otherwise most 1/2
MotionOfTheOcean
models would be + sized.
saturnscape
Lol look at that fat bitch
haebabee
Til: I'm a plus size.
JapaneseStudentTadashii
The other day I tried on a shirt, it fit so I bought it. When I got home I noticed it was a size XL. I usually wear a small. I weigh 1/
verenelda
Sure it wasn't a kids shirt? I wear small women's and can still fit in an XL kids - fits about the same.
JapaneseStudentTadashii
Nope it was an all women's store. There was a plus size section too that didn't have many sizes
verenelda
That is just crazy!
JapaneseStudentTadashii
115 pounds. This industry is terrible.
jamiewritesfic
That's not an XL in women's, that's an XL in Juniors. It's a small in women's. :)
JapaneseStudentTadashii
I'm also a medium in juniors
JapaneseStudentTadashii
No it was a women's size
jamiewritesfic
Well, shit, was hoping to take the sting out. I tried. :P
somebodythatyouusetoknow
Yah, it rather shows our society's body dysmorphia when she is considered a plus sized model huh?
sippycup101
Shows how fucking stupid Calvin Klein is more like it.
LordNoodles
Or marketing gone wrong
tattymane
+1 for dysmorphia . . . hold my beer (googling 'dysmorphia . . .)
roundychips01
Here you go. +1
ManEatingStoat
So small explanation, models have to fit into categories for jobs and stuff. This is Myla Dalbesio. She's 5'11, size 10. Anything over (1/?)
ManEatingStoat
(2/?) size 8 (sometimes as small at 6) is considered "plus-size" in the modeling industry. Myla herself has said in interviews that she does
ManEatingStoat
(3/?) not consider herself plus-sized and it'd ridiculous but that's how the industry works atm. So don't hate on her for it?
ash1k1
Above size zero I guess. So, 1? Or whatever?
gengumby
yes, a whole 1 size
jillaubs
She's a size 10. She likely doesn't look like what most people picture as a size 10 because she's 5'10''.
WhimsicalCalamari
which means that the definition of "plus size" needs a bit of a reworking because that's just silly.
screamingwinemaker
She would only fit in the Ghandi Jean clothing line. Size 1 and below...
Jacxy
Naw, she's size 27, but the picture has no sense of scale. That's Thoralind Guntersten, she is 7'8" and weighs 237lbs.
Abs10710
I though plus started at size 12?
Burke616
Positive numbers are technically "plus," I guess.
itsfuckingcoldherealways
I bet she's 0.5, not 1
HeartBeater
I don't even want to think about how many pluses I have
Steel6633
Maybe instead of complaining, I don't know, drop a few pounds.
mxzel
ash1k1
Haha :P
akuryuken
All of them?
HEXADECIMAL
Didnt Calvin clean get sued for underage models, and he's on the verge of being sued again...
youknowyouwanttoseeit
Sup?
HeartBeater
Sup?
LetMeTellYouSomethingYouDontKnow
I know that feel. Or I would, if I had feelings.
HeartBeater
Are we the same person? I also have no feelings
LetMeTellYouSomethingYouDontKnow
BlueGodBalmung
We should start a band, the "Deadpans".
ohhgumdrop
Probably like a 34 DD or something like that vs the usual 32 C
PrincessWasabi
I'm pretty sure they're not just referring to her bust size
MotionOfTheOcean
As a D busted lady those boobies, while great, aren't DD. They're smaller than my D. And underwear models often have bigger bust 1/2
MotionOfTheOcean
than models for other clothing. (At least to my eye) 2/2
machedelic
She's a size 10
samjam10412
Here's our plus size selection of sizes 14-20... But we're gonna use a size 8/10 model... As per usual
PrincessWasabi
Maybe cause she's super tall or something, there's no way her BMI classifies her as overweight.
MotionOfTheOcean
Models are tall, so yeah. She looks like she's between 19-21, while 18-25 is normal BMI.
machedelic
I just checked her BMI is 23.3
MotionOfTheOcean
Ah, must be as she's so tall. By BMI tall people can be "overweight" even when super slim. My bf is 185 cm and slim af, but around 24.5 ish.
