NSFW: MARIE CLAIRE’S NEW BODY BEAUTIFUL

Marie Claire France often features larger models in its “How To” fashion pages (mostly in swimwear), but this is the first time in recent recall that a larger model has featured in a skincare beauty editorial over several of their pages.  It is incredibly refreshing and long overdue to see a more curvaceous figure used in aspirational editorial!

I’ve uploaded the complete editorial so you can see the context of the photos – it really is presenting a curvy figure as aspirational and a new (or regained) ideal – if you can overlook all of the products they are trying to sell you to have one just like it…but then French women love lotions and potions and would think nothing of having 2 products that do exactly the same thing*

WORKPLACE WARNING: this editorial contains nudity.
