The September Issue

The past weeks have been pretty hectic for me. Not only was I busy with the September Issue of The State of Fashion, but right after that I was busy traveling too. But in case you haven't seen the September Issue of the magazine yet, make sure to check it out here! 

In the Spotlight: Kate Upton!

Lately I've been wondering a lot about the fashion industry's standards for models, especially when it comes to size/weight. Even though I understand the standard, I don't think it would kill designers to deviate from it from time to time. When I look at runway shows I feel like certain clothes could have looked better if the model was maybe just a bit curvier, just a bit!

The first time I heard of Kate Upton was in 2011 when she was named Rookie of the Year by Sports Illustrated Swim Issue. From there everything started to roll for Kate. In 2012 Kate Upton was on the cover for Sports Illustrated Swim Issue, Cosmopolitan, Vogue Italia, GQ and she was also the cover for Vogue UK's January 2013 issue.
