			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The &#8220;Project Runway&#8221; winner says he thinks it&#8217;s &#8220;fabulous&#8221; that there are increasingly more realistic representations of women in fashion.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://i702.photobucket.com/albums/ww30/theurbangent/christian_siriano_88085323.jpg" alt="" width="398" height="570" /></p>
<p>Since winning “Project Runway,” designer Christian Siriano has become one of the fashion industry’s most respected new names. But the young designer says he’d like to see more diversified options for women who wear above a size 8.</p>
<p>At the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show pink carpet in New York last week, Siriano told FoxNews.com that he thinks it’s great that there has been a rising push to include more real size women in fashion.</p>
<p>“I think it’s fabulous,” Siriano said of recent campaigns by magazines like Glamour to include plus size models in their spreads. “I think it’s great and I hope we see more of it.”</p>
<p>Siriano added that, unlike some designers, his line does not hesitate to make clothing for women of all sizes.</p>
<p>credit: foxnews.com</p>
<p>&#8212;</p>
<p>I love that Christian is not narrow minded like most in the industry and soon as I get my pennies together I want to commission him to make something spectacular for me.</p>

<p>Now would we be &#8220;The Page 6 of All Things Curvy&#8221; if we did not bring you the latest things happening&#8230; of course not!</p>
<p>While browsing the internet I ran into something quite fabulous &#8211; <a href="http://www.projectcurveappeal.com/">Project Curve Appeal</a>!  Project Curve Appeal defines itself as movement &#8211; &#8216;to empower, educate and movitate the curvy queens&#8217;.  And I must admit, it looks like a lot of fun!  </p>
<p>When I first started my research on the site, I thought they were a plus size model agency; looks are definitely deceiving.  While they do host the Face of Curve Appeal model call, they seem to have a few other things going on as well.  Project Curve Appeal will be hosting &#8221;A Mini Face Camp &amp; Competition&#8221; on December 12 &#8211; 13th, 2009 in Atlanta, Ga along side of the Pink Christmas Expo &amp; Fashion Show.  For more information on Project Curve Appeal, The Pink Christmas Expo or on becoming a FOCA go <a href="http://projectcurveappeal.com/national_foca_model_search">here</a>.</p>
