“We couldn’t be more excited about providing an environment where girls can shop for fashion in every size. Naturally there is a business opportunity in providing plus-sizes, however it’s a great accomplishment to work on a project that you professionally and personally endorse.” — John D. Goodman, Chief Executive Officer at The Wet Seal, Inc.
Simultaneously, Natural Model Management will be providing girls with fashion, beauty, health, and online-image tips via their extensive online community. “It isn’t about a size, it is about honoring your natural body type. Through self-love we can all end the war on our bodies and heal from the inside out; that is when we will know true beauty when we see it.” — Katie H. Willcox, plus-size model and positive body-image activist and Owner at Natural Model Management
