Now if Melissa McCarthy DON’T. WORK. THIS. SHOOT. Melissa McCarthy covers Elle Magazine’s Women In Hollywood KICKING ASS and taking names.
I peeped this on Stylish Curves and immediately had to share with you! I mean this is amazing for so many reasons, and I will list them here:
Melissa McCarthy Covers Elle Magazine
- A Full Body Shot
- You can see her in all of Melissa McCarthy beauty
- She is fashionably snapped in a FULL BODY SHOT
- Decked out in Marina Rinaldi, Melissa McCarthy looks glamorous
- The cover is striking
- You see all of her in a fashionable light
I know on a few post, we have talked about her fashionable choices, as we wanted to see her fashion forward, playful, and celebratory of her shape- well HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Talk about giving it her all!
I cannot tell you how hyped of this cover I am! SCORE for Elle Magazine delivering to us a shoot and fashion cover that we can be QUITE proud of!
I am all hyped about this and cannot stop smiling! Thoughts!!!
I think this is a huge step forward, as you almost NEVER see a full body shot of a plus size woman on the cover of a magazine. In fact- is this the first?
By golly, I think maybe! I dunno!?! Hrmmm… I think. IONO. But dammit if she looks amazing!
Agreed! In love with that coat.
love it! we need to all buy to support!
YES!!!!! Cause they do track those cover sales!!! 🙂
Girl I subscribe! Haha.
This is so exciting. Us Curvy Girls are finally showing up in the media! Melissa looks stunning as always! Thanks for sharing this with all of us Curvy girls!
My pleasure!! 🙂
I WILL buy this issue, if nothing else but for the cover! Love it!!! I really don’t buy fashion magazines anymore. I can’t really relate. Do you buy them?
I do! For inspiration and to make sure coverage is relevant! 🙂
Loving that this is a big step in the right direction for plus size fashion, however, I wonder if she were a size 2 if they would have put her in a large coat bunched up in the front the camouflages her voluptuous figure. Hmmm…. But it is a step forward nonetheless.
On the contrary, I think if this was on a size two, no one would think twice or question it the same way… 🙂
True. Just wish we could see her curves and just celebrate them out in the open. But, I still loving the photo and her. Looking forward to seeing the spread!
She is gorgeous. I will definitely buy this issue!
YEAAHH!
A plus size woman, in a magazine and she’s not naked or in her underwear!
WOOT!
Had you not said it was her I would not have recognized her. I think it’s great to finally get a full size body shot on the cover but I’d like to know how much it was manipulated in face and body. I guess I just have too much paranoia about magazines to just enjoy the win.
Makeup does fabulous wonders too.. .we haven’t or hardly see her MADEUP though! You know???
Although the cover is beautiful and Melissa looks fabulous, showcasing her in bulky coat is still hiding her curves. Elle had a good idea but, still has some ways to go.
I like it! :/
There has never in the history of Elle been a cover where the coat was bunched up in what can only be described as an “unstylish” manner. Shame on them for not respecting our fashion sense.
🙁
I’m perplexed about why so many people don’t like this – I think she looks great! And since oversized coats are one of fall’s hot trends, I think it’s cool that we actually get to see a plus girl in a current trend and not just a muumuu. Would I have styled it differently? Probably. But I still think she looks great!
I am there with you… She does look great and I like the windswept ooohhh I am running around being fabulous…
I love everything about this; thanks for sharing! I do feel they may be hiding her curves under that coat, but it’s a gorgeous coat & in keeping with what’s in fashion right now. Bottom line, she looks stunning & I love seeing a full-body shot of a plus-size lady on the cover!
She DOES look stunning!
She looks great, great, great. I am concerned about the excessive PhotoShopping that distorts all of us
But in this case, I do not see her being too photoshopped in the sense we do not always see her dolled up too… you know?
I think she slays on this cover! It’s fashion forward and the coat is to die for. Thou protest too much!
