Calvin Klein will (reportedly) stop booking the size zero model.  Francisco Costa, creative director, said that casting has become “a little too formulaic” and is looking to use healthier, more realistic models in his upcoming campaigns and runway shows.  The brand will now book size 2-4 rather than 0-2. 

Rumor has it Costa has booked Lara Stone as this fall’s face of Calvin Klein.  Stone is notorious for speaking out against the inachievable expectations the industry places on models.  (She’s a gorgeous size 4.)

With this shift, we real women have more hope that the fashion world is finally on it’s way to embracing the female figure as we know it.
