It seems that the world is still having issues with the “plus size” industry.
After being the only plus size designer to show and open Milan’s Fashion Week for the last five years, Elena Miro was EXCLUDED from the schedule. Their answer to this:
-Head of the National Chamber of Italian Fashion Mario Boselli told the AFP, “Some labels just weren’t in line with what ready-to-wear week should be. We wanted to champion the values of creativity to reaffirm Milan’s role in the world.”-
The show did go on, but to a smaller crowd in a standing room.
Sure, she isn’t over the top artsy as some, but she has fantastic, realistic designs that many women prefer. I do not understand how Milan could leave her out. I think it absolutely disgusting that something like this has happened.
I wish I could tell the people who decided to leave her out of Milan’s Fashion Week that they need to get over themselves and do something that will benefit the world. What say you?
