Average size mannequin with average size woman.
The problem, in one picture.
I never realized until seeing this picture that my interpretation of an average size woman has become REALLY SKEWED oh my god I wanna cry
best picture ive reblogged in a while.
I’ve been struggling with my body image recently because I’ve gained a lot more weight… and this is so helpful to me because I think my image has been skewed by a lot of mannequins in stores.
Boost the fuck out of this post. The fashion industry has a lot to answer for in making women feel so shitty about their bodies. Curves are beautiful ♥️
And even this too is showing the most “acceptable” way to be the average size.
Even our “reality” checks involve making sure that your examples can fit within convential beauty standards 😒
Also the large majority of the “plus size” mannequins on the market are a size 10-12
lmfao man they want to make mannequins basically at my weight in aesthetic, add several inches to them, and then call it plus size
I’m not plus sized by any means…what are they doingggg
