If I Love You magazine wanted some big butts gracing their new issue, surely they could’ve given me a call because as many of you know, I’m willing and able.

The discourse as of late on various blogs and twitters has taken a turn towards the all too familiar question – why is there only one type of woman represented in fashion magazines? That woman, in case you’ve been asleep your whole life, is white, thin and wearing clothes you probably cannot afford. Suddenly a few “plus-size” models, er, Crystal Renn, are thrown into the pages of V Magazine and people are applauding the fashion industry’s baby step into acknowledging the existence of other women.  Finally, the validation we’ve all been waiting for! (note the sarcasm)

I cannot tell you where the inspiration for this editorial comes from.  The editor over at I Love Cat Party suggests that the spread was inspired by Joan from Mad Men, one of my favorite shows.  You know what I’d like to have seen?  Joan actually wearing these clothes.  Not a computer altered ass and boobs on your typical model (Katlin Aas).
