Crystal Renn and Georgia May Jagger to Walk in Tomorrow’s Chanel Resort Show
By Lauren Sherman
The Twitterati are buzzing with news around tomorrow’s Chanel Resort 2011 show in St. Tropez. Fashionologie reports that according to Lisa Tant, editor-in-chief of Canadian fashion pub Flare, the show’s models include both Georgia May Jagger and Crystal Renn.
We’re not surprised by either choice. Georgia May is a fashion darling, Crystal is a global darling, and they’re both undeniably gorgeous.
But here’s what we’re really thinking about:
Could the inclusion of a size 10 model in a Chanel show be an indication of real change in the industry?
We’d like to think so. Lagerfeld isn’t the type to jump on a bandwagon so long after its initial arrival. Renn’s been posing regularly in high fashion spreads for years–her industry presence is inarguably more than a fad.
Here’s hoping that by next year at this time, the idea of a model larger than a size 0 walking a runway show won’t be news.

I can't wait to see the Chanel collection and would love to see a normal size girl in a Chanel show of all things! Change is good!

Crystal is NOT a size 10. Why can't anyone believe their own eyes instead of a printed number on a page? Here you go: Crystal Renn standing next to a girl who is a US size 16. There is no retouching!

Yesssssssssssss for your innovation and vision, Father Karl! We love you!!! Watch a true trendsetter make history!
Crystal Renn is the only obese person that mine eyes can tolerate…!
Although I imagine a Chanel muumuu with many yards of fabric. But how much shall such a garment (if you can call it such) cost?
Ah, no matter…Master Karl will devise an innovative way to camoflage her ample body and numerous folds of excess skin. I look forward to his creations!
Viva la Lagerfeld!!!
So interesting to see Crystal in different contexts… She looked much bigger than Jacqueline Jablonski in V but looks like Jacqueline compared to Tara Lynn.
obese? oh ian!!!!
(i noted the sarcasm)
Ahhh Rachel….
*sigh*
The tragedy of my life…t'is a burden to be blessed with such comedic genius.
