Lane Bryant runway show 2000 - Part 1

http://www.judgmentofparis.com

A video of the historic first-ever Lane Bryant Cacique fashion show, which took place Feb. 1st, 2000.

Lane Bryant staged a total of four Cacique presentations from 2000-2003. Although they were popular events, customers repeatedly asked that the shows feature fuller-figured models (something that didn't happen until the last, best staging, in 2003).

Models taking part in this show include Lara Johnson, Kate Dillon, Mia Tyler, Natalie Laughlin, Alice Barstow, Angellika, along with celebrity models Anna Nicole Smith and Kathy Najimy. Also, Emme Aronson appears in the post-show interviews.

Compare the best images of plus-size models (seen at sites like http://www.judgmentofparis.com ) to the androgynous waifs who dominate the runways today, and you'll find that the fuller-figured models are actually far more attractive.

this is soooo much more realistic than all of the super skinny models. i mean who in the world wants to live life and be so skinny that you cant enjoy going out to eat with your man??? all i can say is dont knock it till you try it!!! this is so beautiful to me...i am 5ft 2 and i weigh right at 150...not fat just healthy and thick!!!

@SGFawkes a million thumbs up.. something told me to youtube "plus size modeling" and then i found this on the top of the list, then i noticed that they had the same type of body shape i had and suddenly i felt like i was no longer alone like my confidence went through the roof. it has changed how i look at myself forever :D

@deebro65 i feel you!! my husband is a chef and i enjoy his food.. I'm 5'0 at 115lbs and love it. i went down that path of being at 97lbs and its not worth it, i looked like a walking cancer patient. as a recovered anorexic, i vowed never to watch any "normal" aka walking toothpick fashion shows ever again..its disgusting

While I do agree that most models unrealistic sizes, Lane Bryant also shows women of smaller sizes in their industry. I have NEVER seen a size 32 model in Lane Bryant ads.
