Phaze2 Models Commends Designer New Look on Inclusion of Wide Range of Sizes

The fashion industry is moving toward an all-inclusive look to appeal to consumers of all sizes. Talent-related businesses, such as Phaze2 Models, scout for models who offer a healthier and more diverse look.

2012-06-11
NEW YORK, NY, June 11, 2012 (Press-News.org) For years, many voices in the fashion industry have pushed to break boundaries of what is considered acceptable in the style world. This includes a developing movement to get industry leaders to promote healthier-looking models. A Wall Street Journal article notes that while publications, including Vogue, attempt to ban anorexic models from their pages, fashion design companies, such as New Look, are developing lines that compliment all sizes. This inclusion of different sizes has encouraged more people to embark on modeling careers. Phaze2 Models is one company that works with this developing talent, and is excited to see a wider range of modeling opportunities for a diverse group of talent.

Significant voices have joined this fight against promoting unhealthy images. In 2010, Victoria Beckham, who banned size 0 models from walking at her shows and Israel recently placed a ban on models whose BMI falls below 18.5. While the article notes these instances as major turning points in the fashion industry, it also stresses the importance fashion designers have on changing overall perception. Not only is New Look a cutting edge fashion house that has made a clothing line available to many more sizes, but it also presents these trendy items in a "luxurious" and "glamorous" way.

While the decision may be regarded as one that will increase profits, the professionals at Phaze2 Models sees the "inclusion of all sizes as a fundamental part of the evolution of the fashion industry." Kristina Villarini, Media Manager at Phaze2 Models, notes that such an evolution is important to everyone in the industry. For those that scout talent, it affords a whole new opportunity to take chances on new and different faces that were not as welcome in previous years.

When asked to comment on the New Look all-inclusive line, Villarini said, "It will not only inspire designers to book more full-figured men and women, but it will also help change people's perceptions of beauty and propel that conversation forward in a positive way." Following this logic, designer are not only encouraging healthier public perceptions but are also taking on unexplored areas of style that may lead to some new discoveries in fashion.

Herbivores select on floral architecture in a South African bird-pollinated plant

Herbivores select on floral architecture in a South African bird-pollinated plant
2012-06-11
Floral displays, such as the color, shape, size, and arrangement of flowers, are typically thought to have evolved primarily in response to selection by pollinators—for animal-pollinated species, being able to attract animal vectors is vital to an individual plant's reproductive success. But can herbivores also exert similarly strong selective forces on floral characters? New research on two sister species in South Africa suggests that this may indeed be the case for inflorescence architecture in the rat's tail plant, Babiana ringens. By modifying the primary location of ...

Sleepy medical staff run increased risks of accidents driving home after a night shift

2012-06-11
Paris, France: The drowsiness experienced by medical staff who have been on night duty can make their driving dangerous, French researchers have found. The first study to use simulated driving tests on medical staff returning home after a night shift showed that, under the monotonous driving conditions similar to those experienced on autoroutes (motorways or highways), it was more difficult for them to hold a straight line while driving than it was when they had not been working overnight. They also had greater difficulty in controlling their speed when driving in monotonous ...

Probing the mechanism of ADAM28-mediated cancer metastasis

2012-06-11
ADAM28, a metalloproteinase belonging to the ADAM gene family, cleaves the von Willebrand factor (VWF) and inhibits VWF-mediated cancer cell apoptosis, thereby enhancing lung metastases, so inhibiting its expression gives a substantial reduction in lung metastases, according to a study published June 8 in the Journal of The National Cancer Institute. Several ADAMs are known to be found in tumors and are linked with both tumor growth and cancer progression in humans. While ADAM28 is overexpressed in both breast and non-small cell lung cancers, the mechanism of ADAM28-mediated ...

Environmental benefit of biofuels is overestimated, new study reveals

2012-06-11
Two scientists are challenging the currently accepted norms of biofuel production. A commentary published today in GCB Bioenergy reveals that calculations of greenhouse gas (GHGs) emissions from bioenergy production are neglecting crucial information that has led to the overestimation of the benefits of biofuels compared to fossil fuels. The critique extends to the Life Cycle Analysis models of bioenergy production. Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) is a technique used to measure and compile all factors relating to the production, usage, and disposal of a fuel or product. The ...

Overexpression of proteins 14-3-3 related to chemotherapy resistance

2012-06-11
Certain proteins, such as 14-3-3, conserve their basic functions of cell cycle control in diverse organisms, from worms to humans. In a study led by Julián Cerón and Simó Schwartz Jr, researchers from the Bellvitge Biomedical Research Institute (IDIBELL) and the Research Institute of Vall d'Hebron (VHIR) respectively, have described germ line functions of par-5, which is one of the two 14-3-3 proteins existing in Caenorhabditis elegans, worms used as experimental model in genetic studies. The overexpression of the 14-3-3 proteins is related to the resistance of tumors to ...
