Full Figured Mannequin's? 
Is The World Ready for them? 

She's size 12 & Most Women In America are Size 14! 
Here's the Full story, Borrowed from
"Anatomy of a meme: The real story behind the Swedish mannequins that looked like Real women” 
By Jeff Yang. 
Yesterday, I received an urgent Twitter message from Rebecka Silvekroon, a 29-year-old project manager for LBi, a digital communications agency based in Malmö in southern Sweden, asking for assistance in reaching Yahoo, one of the primary vectors of the image’s viral distribution.
What’s startling is that she did it back in 2010. Moreover, the image came not from H&M ironically, a retailer she’d critiqued for its skinny mannequins—but from one of its competitors, Åhléns is Clothing Company from Sweden who has full figured mannequins 
The post had been completely ignored for two years, until Women’s Rights News stumbled upon it and reblogged it without translating the accompanying text & still didn't give her credit! 
As Silvekroon explained, she was the one who originally shot the image, posting it to Becka.nu, a personal blog she writes in when not working on websites for clients, sharing thoughts about her everyday life, travel and other “ordinary things,” she says—naturally, writing entirely in Swedish.
& She's living a very quite life & now her Photo is Starting ALL kinds of Debates!

When I was younger I looked Up to My Mom & Aunts & grandmother's & I didn't see what size they are! & I just saw how strong these women are & being Latinas &we are all curvy In our own ways! But even now, I think why don't they have Full Figured Mannequins! because as Women our self esteem after we do shopping is WAY Down.. & Mannequins don't help either! Maybe Shopping would be better for some women & myself also! & This What I Think! What Do You Think??

Stay Classy 
See You Friday!

This has been my fave post so far!
I love Alice + Olivia so very much! I feel that the prices are very affordable considering that it's designer wear. Love almost everything! Especially the colors! It's always so vibrant. Sort of happy clothes!

About the mannequin story, I love the idea every store should have them so girls can stop feel like they're not the beauty standard.

Great one Pam!

Awesome article. Beautiful colors make you feel beautiful.
About the mannequins, if we were all the same size, we'd all be robots! Everyone is either short, medium or tall, wide or thin. So different mannequins are needed. Great research.
