You all know that I am good friends with the Madison Plus team, well they just recently did another editorial shoot! With the lovely Leona Palmer! I have met Leona and she is a sweetheart beyond words.
The editorial is called “Under the Influence” which is very 70’s inspired, below are some my favorite images from the day. Find the rest of the editorial HERE.

I thought the team did a pretty good job. :)

How to be a plus size model!
Well hello everyone! Several girls have approached me via e-mail and asked if I could give more advice on “how to become a plus size model”. Well, here is how I became a model…
I read so so soooo many articles on-line about how to begin. I had nothing to spend on photoshoots so that was out of the question. Which was when I found out about TFP/CD (Trade For Print/CD) *Angels sing*. This is when you meet with photographers (mostly students) that are working on their portfolio’s as you are and will not charge you. Only because they are learning also! :) It is a great thing, not to mention free- but you have to remember to BRING IT.
If you have a Art Institute around you there are plenty of photography students that need models for projects. They are a great place to go, but they do not tend to give many pictures back (their school project might require one image), so keep that in mind. You might get 2 or 3 images, discuss this with the photographer beforehand, so you know what to expect.
Where do you find these photographers? ModelMayhem.com. This site is fabulous, you can find photographers that are professional and not so professional. I can usually tell by a photographers work if I am interested in working with them or not. Because most of my work is fairly classy.
Before you meet up with one of these photog’s make sure you contact another model (from their port) to ask their opinion on the person/photographer.
Big deal? Yes I think so.
When you have your pictures taken it is important to be comfortable, or it will show throughout all of the pictures that you were not. I love seeing pictures of the photographers before I meet them. Because after all they can see pictures of me! I just think it’s a comfort thing.
I hope this helps!!! Feel free to e-mail me if you have any other questions! :D
I think the model is absolutely stunning, but I am not a huge fan of the collection…
I think they still have a ways to go. But model choice was brilliant, she stole the show. I don’t even see the clothes, except the cuff… LOVE the cuff.
What do you think???
Crystal Renn Won’t Walk the Runways in New York This Season
After doing the Z Spoke show last season in New York, Crystal Renn won’t walk any this season in New York (though she did appear in Z Spoke’s fall 2011 look book, which the label released in lieu of a runway show). New York has been slower to come around to casting plus-size models in fashion shows than Europe — and it’s been skinny-skinny as usual so far this Fashion Week — but we hear Renn has a show booked across the pond. Meanwhile, Marquita Pring, who walked the Jean Paul Gaultier show last season, modeled in Joy Cioci’s first Fashion Week presentation in the tents this evening along with a few other “plus-size” ladies who blended in seamlessly with the “straight-size” girls. You could pick the plus sisters out of the model lineup if you looked hard enough…
I just want to say:
HEY BIG NEW YORK DESIGNERS!
GROW A PAIR, CRYSTAL ISN’T EVEN (technically) A PLUS SIZE MODEL ANYMORE! She is a size six, and looks amazing. So, get off your high horse and face the facts. She makes everything look good. You would have so much support as a designer if you did so.
<3 Mandy, your pudgy friend.
Here is another! :D
I adore Sam Seddon. She is an amazing photographer. :)
Most recent photoshoot.
Also with Sam Seddon.
