Chloe Marshall - Full Bodied Winner

March 27th 2008 00:04

Plus Sized beauty becomes a finalist for Miss England.

After the positive response to last weeks plus sized model introduction featuring the delectable Crystal Renn, I thought I would milk they topic a little more.

This week the telegraph.co.uk is reporting that Chloe Marshall, a 176 pound, size 16 has won the Miss Surrey beauty pageant in the UK. At just 16 years old Chloe is now a finalist for Miss England which will be decided in July.

Competing against 23 slimmer girls who fit the stereotypical image, the Guildford beauty therapist is proud of her curves and has developed a passionate following.

When interviewed by the telegraph.co.uk, Chloe has said:

"It's really exciting, I'm really, really happy. I'm lost for words, I started to cry and everything. I'm over the moon," she said.

"I wanted to go through to the Miss England finals to break through the stereotype that you have to be tall and skinny.”

"I wanted to make a bit of a statement. When I studied the other entrants for the Miss Surrey competition I concluded that pretty as the contestants were, they were equally all uniformly blonde and Barbie doll like.

"I want to show girls out there that it is possible to be beautiful and not a standard sized zero.

"My mum is really happy and proud of me that I am doing something not just for myself but other people as well and my friends are really supportive, they can't stop going on about it."

Wether she takes home the crown or not it is reassuring to know that the trend towards healthier body shapes is growing. After all, size 16 is actually the average dress size of woman throughout Britian.

The Ultimate A List Accessory - the Parisian Baby Stylist (LINK)

September 9th 2007 15:28

We have all seen the power of the stylist. Before we knew it, Hollywood stylist Rachel Zoe had Lindsay Lohan, Nicole Ritchie and Jessica Simpson all sporting drapey gowns over wispy thin bodies. One journalist touts that its only since Celebrities and Designers realised that revenue could be bought in from red carpet photographs, that the Stylist has forged a position in society on par to a Publicist and Celebrity Manager. They are THE ultimate accessory and Celebrities today dont leave home without them.

A new super power has emerged with the baby boom among CEO's, Supermodels and Hollywood's A-List - having on call one's very own Parisian Baby Stylist. I had the pleasure of catching up with the name in every starlets Little Black Book - Laetitia Lerouge

It's all in the gams: Jessica Stam

June 7th 2007 00:42

One of the most striking models of the contemporary brat pack is Jessica Stam, a statuesque Canadian who has the kind of natural physique required for catwalk shows. She is indeed long and slender but there is nothing painful about the proportions of her legs or the position of her clavicle. My general rule is that if the knee is wider than the thigh there’s a problem but Stam is in proportion as you can see from the Stella McCartney show.
