Lizzie Miller Glamour Magazine: Lizzie Miller Glamour (photo)
By Clarencia Cynrae on August 21st, 2009Lizzie Miller and Glamour Magazine want to challenge convention and the status quo. Lizzie Miller is a plus size model. Miller posed in her underwear for Glamour. Miller’s physique and story are featured in the Glamour article called “What Everyone But You Sees About Your Body”.
Miller looks beautiful as a “plus sized model”. In her interview, Miller said she was comfortable with her looks and that was important. It didn’t matter to Miller that she was labeled as a plus size. Glamour picked Miller as one of the plus sized models who managed to carve a career and go against the convention of the size zero.
Glamour magazine wanted to show what it was like on the heavier side of the scale. It boiled down to how the woman or model received her self image. Would she accept a comfortable figure without starving herself or would she strive to confine in the status quo with a strident diet?
Glamour may be trying to suggest there is nothing wrong with a plus size. Lizzie Miller herself wasn’t shy to show her stomach paunch. Some readers were upset at this.
Miller’s feature with Glamour is a one off special tribute. Glamour and the rest of the skinny world will continue to reign.

Regarding the model from Glamour magazine who’s semi-nude photos have her being touted as a “Plus-sized” model: she is not plus-sized. Plus sized is not a woman who’s dress size is in the teens (certainly not a size 14; that’s average). Plus size is a dress size in the twenties and above; or 1x, 2x, 3x. Women of that size are plus-sized; they’re the beautiful, truly curvy and fantastic actual-sized women.

leave her alone! it’s her body. young women are busy starving themselves to death because they think the only beautiful women are thinner ones. the fashion industry is busy screwing people’s. it is absurd and now is the time to put a stop to this nonsense for good. Arise women and celebrate being a woman whether thin or fat, small or big.
