Calvin Klein’s ‘First Plus Size Model’ Is Making People Angry Well, not her personally... Calvin Klein Back in 2014 we told you about Myla Dalbesio, a size 10 model who landed a major advertising campaign with Calvin Klein lingerie. At the time, Elle pointed out in an interview with the model that the fashion industry would probably still consider her to be ‘plus-size’ even though she’s obvs not. Calvin Klein In fact, Myla has referred to herself as an “inbetweenie”, in an interview with the TODAY show, saying: “I am one of many girls who are ‘inbetweenies.’ We’re not skinny enough to be straight-size, like these size zero and size two girls, and we’re not big enough to be plus-size.” And now people are getting angry about the whole situation again, since Coronation Street actress Catherine Tyldesley posted a meme of the campaign on Twitter. Tell me this is a joke??PLUS size?!?! Congrats on giving another generation of girls eating disorders/insecurities pic.twitter.com/Al7QbxuraZ — Catherine Tyldesley (@Cath_Tyldesley) June 22, 2016 To be clear, Calvin Klein never referred to Myla as ‘plus-size’ and the text accompanying her image was not made by them. But that hasn’t stopped the anger erupting all over social media. If this is “plus size” I don’t want to know what Calvin Klein would categorize me under. pic.twitter.com/kUb4TKXAr7 — Anna Lauzon (@anna_lauzon) June 25, 2016 How on earth is she plus size?

Just cos we can’t see her rib cage does not mean she is plus size!! Smh #CalvinKlein pic.twitter.com/uV4H26qmGh — Gabriel (@Gabriel_123_c) June 21, 2016 Myla told InStyle last year that the controversy was a good thing for the future of the fashion industry. “This whole controversy is starting a greater conversation towards more inclusive fashion”, she said.
