“In “Curvy,” they are superhappy with their sizes. We help them dress fashionably. We say: It’s pointless for you to buy leggings, take this because this will look good on you. We help them choose. We don’t talk about diets because they don’t want to be on a diet, but it’s not a ghetto. Why should these women slim down? Many of the women who have a few extra kilos are especially beautiful and also more feminine.” WantShouldLooksHelpingBeautifulDressesSizeDietsExtrasFemininePointlessGhettoSlimCurvyLeggings Author:Franca Sozzani
“The only time I was really surprised was the reaction to the [shoot dedicated to the] BP oil [spill in 2010]. I didn't expect it at all. It was for the August issue, perhaps one of the less relevant months, but there was so much buzz. It was picked up all over the American television, but I defended my position. I don't understand those that say that a magazine such as Vogue should not talk about these things.” ShouldIssuesPositionTelevisionMonthsOilReactionsMagazinesDedicatedRelevantOnly TimeAugustSpillsBuzzVogueOil SpillAmerican Television Author:Franca Sozzani
