Time and again, I come across articles offering bra tips. And time and again, I find myself saying, "Well, those rules only apply to ladies with at least a C cup. What about those who are a bit more ... petite?" So, I decided to find out for myself. For the first time in my life, I got a bra fitting -- I know it seems like it should be a teenage rite of passage, but I honestly never thought I needed one as an A or B cup. During a recent trip to Manhattan's Intimacy, the lovely Dee Binyard, one...

Photoshop fails have become more common than ever, with various retailers chopping off limbs and backsides. So it's really no surprise that Target is the most recent culprit to distort a model. In a major fail noticed first by Jezebel, the store's website features a photo of a teen model wearing a junior's swimsuit. In what appears to be an attempt to make her legs look longer/bottom half look smaller, the model is missing a piece of her vagina. OUCH. The photo has since been removed from...

It's been nearly six months since Rick Owens' Spring/Summer 2014 fashion show took place in Paris, but we just can't stop talking about it -- and for good reason. The designer sent a slew of traditional African-American step teams down the runway to show off his wears and inevitably promote the importance of both racial and body diversity within the fashion industry. Owens' message and clothing have now found themselves at the center of AnOther Magazine's newest editorial. Katie Shillingford,...

If the name "Kennedy" harkens back to a bygone era of glamour, then the words "debutantes ball" will probably do the same. And yet both are still going strong. Kyra Kennedy, daughter of Robert Kennedy Jr. and great-niece to the late President John F. Kennedy, made her formal debut at the Bal Des Débutantes 2013 in Paris this weekend. The ball, held at the Hôtel de Crillon, saw over 20 "debs" introduced to society in the most glamorous couture while their parents watched on. For 18-year-old Kyra,...

Few models have been able to transcend the plus-size world like Robyn Lawley has. With each modeling gig and interview, the Australian stunner seems to be fostering a body positive dialogue in the fashion industry as a whole. But while she's sounded off on everything from the "thigh gap" trend to the "heroin chic" look, sometimes it's better to show rather than tell. Lawley's inclusive message is pretty loud and clear in her latest photoshoot for Cosmopolitan Australia. Appearing in the December...

Zosia Mamet, who plays straight-laced Shoshanna on our beloved "Girls," hit the red carpet on Sunday wearing a mini dress that could have probably doubled as a shirt -- i.e., the "pantsless" look. Mamet styled the white dress elegantly with understated hair, neutral makeup and flat shoes. The cute look gave us serious flashbacks to the "pantsless" outfit Lena Dunham wore on the red carpet last fall (you know, the one that had the media all in a tizzy). We're going to assume that Zosia, just...

Rumor has it Beyoncé isn't keen on being Photoshopped. So we hope she doesn't check her email this morning, where she might find a press release from Roberto Cavalli featuring a rather extreme image of herself. Cavalli announced via email that Bey wore a special Roberto Cavalli "created exclusively for her 'The Mrs. Carter Show World Tour'" at her recent concert, a multicolored silk gown with gold embellishments and cutouts. Sounds like classic Beyoncé, no? But here's the image they includ...

After more than a year since their epic trip through Canada and California, Kate Middleton and Prince William have finally set off on their 9-day royal tour of southeast Asia and the South Pacific to continue Queen Elizabeth II's Diamond Jubilee celebration. Their first stop to ease the couple back into royal tour life after their 14-hour flight was Singapore's botanical gardens. But when you're a royal, you don't just look at flowers like the commoners -- you get one named after you. Will and...

Hillary Clinton is riding a brand new image wave lately. It started with that epic photo of the secretary of state wearing sunglasses while looking at her Blackberry, which quickly turned into the "Texts from Hillary" meme (approved by Clinton herself.) And we're sure these photos from Hills' fun night out in Colombia this weekend will only win her a few more admirers. Clinton was in the country with President Obama -- on the same Summit of the Americas visit that launched the Secret Service prostitution...

A rule change that would allow transgender women to participate in the Miss Universe beauty pageant next year is a step forward for equality, advocates said Tuesday after pageant officials announced the policy shift. Pageant officials said they are working on the language of the official rule policy change but expected final word to come soon. The rules will have to be approved by Donald Trump, who runs the Miss Universe Organization, and NBC. Trump and NBC co-own the contest. The announcement...

Reality TV star and now "Skinnygirl" entrepreneur Bethenny Frankel has already deluged the market with her Skinnygirl brand books, makeup, ponytail (yes, really) and those (controversial) Skinnygirl margaritas. But now, you can get Skinnygirl even closer to your body with Frankel's new line of Skinnygirl Smoothers 'n' Shapers. Launching in May 2012, the shapewear will be available at select Macy's stores, and for the line's "Real Woman" campaign, Frankel put a bunch of her real life besties --...

If you've been feeling a little down about your looks lately, having a drink (or just believing you've had a drink!) can make you feel more attractive, according to a new study. French scientists have conducted two experiments indicating that the more alcohol you think you've had in a day will increase your self-confidence in your appearance, even if you haven't had any. The Agence France-Presse reports the scientists conducted one experiment in a local bar where 19 people were asked to assess...

The Spanish royal (and we do mean royal -- she possesses 46 aristocratic titles, more titles recognized by an existing government than any other noble in the world) celebrates her 86th birthday today, and honestly, she's kind of our hero. Here's your Duchess of Alba primer: Her full name is Maria del Rosario Cayetana Alfonsa Victoria Eugenia Francisca Fitz-James Stuart y de Silva. (Fine, we'll 'fess up: we copied and pasted that.) The only child of the Duke of Alba, she plunged into two marriages...

Isn't it the worst when you just can't find a pair of jeans that fit right? Well, according to a new survey that's exactly what men and women of Mexico are going through -- all the time. Women's Wear Daily reports shoppers in Mexico have been complaining of sizing issues with clothing for years, generally stating the clothes are never big or long enough for the population. This problem also has Mexican retailers losing out on an estimated $4 billion dollars because of the high rate of returned...

Now that winter has begun to thaw, models are unpacking their tiniest bikinis and heading to the beach. Any complaints? We didn't think so. Anne V. and her fellow Sports Illustrated swimsuit girl, Irina Shayk, headed to Miami on Friday to celebrate Anne's 26th birthday, splashing in the waves and hanging out with girlfriends at Soho House. "We are booty shaking with miss Shaykie herself!" Anne tweeted exuberantly. They also showed off their sexy swimsuits: Anne wore what looks like a Missoni...

Female chess players, put away your two castles: The European Chess Union just released some new dress code rules for chess players, and they include some strict policies on cleavage. ChessBase.com (a great chess website, we're told) has an interview with Sava Stoisavljevic, General Secretary of the ECU, who speaks out on the new rules that the group has adopted, which are already being enforced at the European Women's Individual Chess Championship happening now in Turkey: Only two buttons may...

The South Africa native, who most recently thrilled us by attending the Oscars with her husband Prince Albert, opened the "Grace Kelly: Style Icon" exhibit in Victoria, marking her first trip to Australia as a royal. The special exhibit showcases one hundred of Kelly's most famous costumes and dresses from designers like Dior, Balenciaga, Givenchy and Yves St. Laurent. "Her beautiful style was a reflection of her natural elegance, taste and character," Charlene told the crowd. "Her style is so...

Twilight" star Ashley Greene attended last night's Avon Foundation Awards Gala in a sleek blue asymmetrical gown. The bombshell brunette paired her dress with a black box clutch, black pumps and a sparkly ring (hmm...) on her left hand. Fergie hosted the awards, which highlight the Avon Foundation's philanthropic efforts and promote fundraising for causes that are the most important to women, at the Marriott Marquis Times Square in New Yor...

Plus-size models are fashion's topic du jour, particularly in light of Vogue Italia's recent cover featuring three curvy, lingerie-clad models photographed by Steven Meisel. Among the new guard of plus-size beauties is Robyn Lawley, one of the three stunners shot by Vogue Italia and a self-described former "skinny model." She told Models.com (video below), "I wasn't a straight-size model for long. I've always naturally been just a bigger girl. So, I found out I could model plus-size around 19....
