Covers To Love: V Magazine's Spring Size Issue
I've been hunting all over town to get my hands on a copy of V magazine's oft-talked about "size issue". There's been endless buzz about their controversial decision to have a plus-sized spring issue, complete with ground-breaking plus-size drop-dead-gorgeous high-fashion photo shoots. While Glamour magazine should be credited with kickstarting the trend, V has really taken the "concept," packaged it right, and run with it.
To celebrate and emphasize the decision, V wisely decided on two very different covers reflecting the diversity of women's bodies contained therein (I realize "diversity" in a fashion magazine is still "pretty damn hot," but hey, a step in the right direction.) It appears the decision was a wise one - both covers are sold out on V's website, and I can't for the life of me find a much-coveted copy in any store. Wondering if any Canadian fashion mags may follow suit? (And if anyone manages to source a copy, I'm willing to negotiate a price.)
