Last year one of the biggest names in the industry Karl Lagerfield, known for his personal and Chanel runway collections, collaborated with Miss Dirty Martini, a burlesque dame. She also happens to be very plus sized. The photo shoot was debuted in V magazine (the spring edition featuring Gabourey Sidibe on the cover) with a Chanel theme and Karl Lagerfield as the photographer. Karl Lagerfield is known to not be very favorable of the fuller figure, with quotes stating that "No one wants to see curvy women". But he seems to have a change of heart in the past year, with this collaboration as well as using 'previously' plus sized model Crystal Renn in Chanel ads. Chanel. The images in the V magazine photoshoot are lovely and with Chanel and the name Karl Lagerfield in the collaboration, it was a good step in the right direction for real women in the fashion industry. Curves are beautiful, no matter if they are on a size 20 or a size 8. You can view more photos from the shoot here: V Magazine
