Dimitri Hyacinthe – Continue Reading Below”It’s so surreal.”I’m checking in with model Myla Dalbesio a month after I interviewed her about her Calvin Klein underwear campaign. In the interview, she told me how thrilled she was with the campaign, particularly because as a model who happens to be a size 10, Calvin Klein didn’t say “‘Whoa, look, there’s this plus size girl in our campaign.’ They released me in this campaign with everyone else; there’s no distinction,” she says. If you had never heard Dalbesio’s name before that interview, you may know it now: the story went viral as outrage over the industry’s treatment of size (and categorization of “plus size”) surged. Soon, Dalbesio was trending on Facebook and appearing live on TODAY. “It feels like you exist inside this bubble and nothing you do has anything to do with anyone else,” Dalbesio tells me over the phone. “I didn’t think about the impact.” She recalls a recent e-mail from a girl who “felt like she wasn’t fat” after seeing photos of Dalbesio. “It’s been really lovely to hear from people,” she says. “I feel like I have a greater responsibility to women than I did before.” Here, Dalbesio opens up on life after going viral, body image, and her other hustle: making feminist art. Calvin Klein – Continue Reading BelowPhoto: Myla DalbesioSo…You blew up after our interview and have been doing amazing work since. How does all this extra attention feel? Strange, but in the end, not too different. When you’re caught up in the middle of a media blitz, it can be terrifying and stressful. It feels like it’s never going to end, and all you want to do is crawl into a hole, go to sleep for a week, and come out when it’s all done. But of course, things turn around so quickly in the news cycle, you basically blink and your moment is over; you’re on the other side, and life is normal again. You’re not “trending” anymore. They’re talking about someone else on The View. You’re in your sweatpants taking your dog to the park and picking up his poop and buying coffee from the same people you always do, who don’t care what morning show you were just on. Some stuff has changed, of course. One of the things I love the most about modeling is being able to work with other talented artists, so the uptick in editorial and creative work has been wonderful. The feedback I’ve gotten from people has also been very inspiring and given me a lot to consider. As a model you get a general and vague idea of the impact the fashion industry—and thus www.zoetermeerinbeeld.nl , you—have on consumers, but it seems very removed and foreign from your everyday life. To get emails and comments from women telling me their own personal stories regarding body image puts things into a new perspective. The cause and effect becomes more tangible, and it gives me a greater feeling of responsibility when it comes to my job and the choices I make. – Continue Reading Below – Continue Reading BelowJody Rogac for Yahoo StylePhoto:There’s a lot of misinformation and misconceptions out there about plus size and the modeling industry. What do you want people to know? Of course I can’t speak for everyone, but I can say that, in general, none of us want to be labeled at all. We don’t want there to be distinctions and precursors for everyone based on something as arbitrary as the number on the tag of our jeans. Plus size, straight size, in-betweenies. It all sounds so ridiculous. We just want to be models, without any qualifier, and we want to be booked for who we are, as individual personalities and bodies and people. Just as all women want to be looked at as a whole human being, outside of numbers on a scale or ticks on a measuring tape. Categorizing and labeling in this way is harmful to everyone, in and outside of the fashion world. – Continue Reading BelowAnd now that more people are starting to know your name, what else do you want them to know about you?I think it’s great that I can give women of an underrepresented size range a voice, but I want to be known for more than my size. I want all women to know cheap Canada Goose , regardless of size, shape, color, whatever, that they are powerful beings. You own your beauty; your body is what you make of it. You can, and should, celebrate it, regardless of whatever size society tells you it’s supposed to be. When I stopped the weird diets and essentially rejected what everyone was telling me to do with my body and my life, my whole world changed. I began to respect myself in a different way and to demand that same respect from the people around me. I became a whole person again, which made it easier to figure out what I wanted from life and take on the challenges involved in getting there. I am more than a measurement and I want people to know that.Calvin Klein – Continue Reading Below – Continue Reading BelowPhoto: Myla DalbesioEach December, ELLE celebrates women in art. You are a woman in art! I know you’ve done some amazing performance pieces in the past. What are you working on now? I’m always in my studio working on something when I’m not traveling. Lately I’ve been working on a new series of collages and drawings and will soon be starting a new video project.What’s inspiring you right now? I’ve been getting into ’70s grindhouse films. Russ Meyer and Jack Hill and their compatriots. I love the powerful female archetype that they created. Their stars are a bunch of sex-positive badasses who are super comfortable in their bodies. They know what they want, they’re not afraid to ask for it, and they do what it takes to get it. How do women’s bodies play into your art? The powerful female body is the fundamental base of all the art I make, but size doesn’t really play a role. It took me a while to embrace this idea of identifying as a feminist artist because the person I was with for a while pushed me to not identify as that because, in his mind, it put me into this box. He didn’t want me to be pigeonholed. After we broke up I started embracing that part of myself. My work changed a lot.Calvin KleinPhoto: Myla Dalbesio
