Size Up Fail: A C Cup Alone makes a Full Figure in the Fashion World?

July 23, 2009


Lara Stone is busty (left, for Prada) but in the 2nd photo
more stick than full figured with jutting hip bones.

I'm about to depart a bit from my usual "Ella" demure professionalism today in this rant. (Warning: it bad language will show up further down the page.) Still somehow when I'm sick with upset, surprisingly, eloquence conquers more through lyrical prose. So you'll now receive oddly & seemingly-schemed poetic flow with the partial drawback of - well, a hissy fit? At least you can not see the temper tantrum I feel inside me wanting to break out. But it is not masterminded; it is a gift (in my opinion, as I like my style). Perhaps I am blessed in my strangeness, but I digress too much.

I'm weary, bleary, hungry and rife with personal strife currently. It'll be OK soon, don't worry - life happens. OK I'm still a lady, yes, I didn't cuss. But later on, I know the bitch me will surface - and Ella even refers to that as a chienne or female dog instead of the B word! (Oh my.) But it is a part of me. I won't deny it as a woman it is in me. Hear me roar. And that's not anti-feminist. (Men can be worse - or just plain bitches themselves. Maybe that's un-PC. Maybe it's human.)

On to the "story"... So model and it-girl hype ... I never follow it. You might know that. I don't care if you care not for it. But of course I do try to keep up with a lot of fashion article reading whenever I can. I'm not mad when bloggers follow business-as-usual whereas it's my nemesis - so the source of this news does not matter. Oh it does as a link source, of course, I happily oblige - I mean just that I mean no offense. Who does not chatter - amongst the trendy writers - of trends, news, current... That's fine, as "fine" is defined.

But back on topic, this happens to mean, yes-I've heard buzz of Lara Stone and her status in the modeling world. Whatever.

But her very popularity (or is it sheer f...abbing presence on top catwalks?) is marked as exceptional to the modeling biz. Why? Because she's a size 4. Yes, 4, or 6 on bloated days. But models are "supposed to be" a 0 or 2. So she's heralded as "curvier" or worse "fuller figured".

The real thing, true visual difference, between Lara and her runway colleagues (not all models, mostly just runway) is that her breasts are 2 1/2 sizes more grown than her nearly A peers. Her bust is reportedly a C cup.

Quel shock! Alert the press! She's got it gets juicy from here...
