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.

NEW YORK, NY, June 11, 2012

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.
