    Hi! Thank you for informing us that thereโ€™re so many plus size magazines ! Iโ€™m going to check them out for sure ! Iโ€™m currently reading a Japanese plus size fashion magazine, La Farfa ! Iโ€™m loving the contents! I think itโ€™s suitable for girls who love cute and sweet styles.

    Plus Model Magazine and Daily Venus Diva donโ€™t look as well produced as the other magazines on your list. The typography is cluttered and looks like student work. The cover is what makes you pick up the magazine. All of the other magazine covers such as Dare and Slink look well produced, clean design and typography and looks like a mainstream magazine that I would see at any news stand. I am excited to see Plus Size magazines in a high fashion context and not just catalog style. Thanks for sharing this list. On a side note I am seeing Theary Sim everywhere she is on one of your covers and the cover of Skortch features one of her designs. Looking forward to seeing the fashion world recognize Plus Size high fashion in more magazines in the future.

      Well, okay @awnicaflixbrowne:disqus. Each Magazine has different aesthetics and purposes, so obviously, those two arent your mag of choice. The point here was to share and show various magazines doing something different. I actually like Plus Model Mag and I do not mind the Daily Venus coverโ€ฆ

      One of my covers? I dont produce covers or magazinesโ€ฆ I share info on my blog????

        I misspoke, not one of your covers but one of the covers you highlighted on your blog. Your question said, โ€œWhat do you think.โ€ And I said what I thought. The two covers I mentioned, Plus Model Mad and Daily Venus are magazines I would not pick up because I donโ€™t think they look well produced. Iโ€™ve seen them, but would not look at them again because they are not pleasing to me aesthetically. Period.

          You are right, I did ask, but what caught me was how harsh your comment came offโ€ฆ obviously, you are not their market and this is okayโ€ฆ it is cool that we have a few options! ๐Ÿ™‚

            Actually, I market to these magazines. I am a photographer that shoots Plus Size Models. Harsh? The only thing I said was that two of the magazines lacked the design aesthetic that keeps them from looking hi-end in my opinion. The rest of my comment was complimentary. I want to see more Plus Size representation done in the way of straight model magazines, with the same design and photography standards if not better. Scroll through the 8 magazine selections you posted with a critical eye. And look at the typography and design, there is a clear disparity. The cover design should match the content. Again, thank you for making us all aware of the Plus Size magazines that out there right now.

            It would be great to see more editorial using plus size women I n all magazines, seeing women of all shapes and size looking fabulous is what it should be about! I go one will keep hopingโ€ฆ
