Elle has released four covers for its annual "Women in Television" issue -- and Mindy Kaling's looks a little, well, different.

One of Elle's most controversial covers ever was one of its most covered-up. Melissa McCarthy wore an oversized cashmere coat on one of the magazine's Women in Hollywood covers and the internet was not pleased with Elle, who it felt was deliberately covering up the actress's frame with the grey outerwear. As it turns out, though, Melissa McCarthy, who is working on a plus-size line, was covering herself up.

While Oscar nominees probably start preparing their outfits the day they're nominated, we pulled some dress options straight from the Fall 2012 collections just in case any nominees have been procrastinating. Luckily for us, tons of gorgeous, Oscar-worthy dresses hit the runway for Fall 2012, from some moody options at Gucci to slinky and sexy looks from Michael Kors, Prabal Gurung, and Zac Posen. Oh, and there's Marchesa of course. Click through our gallery to see what dresses we'd love to see on Rooney Mara, Jessica Chastain, Meryl Streep, and all the other nominees. And be sure to tune in to the Academy Awards red carpet Sunday night to see what the nominees actually wear. You know we'll have lots of thoughts on those come Monday morning...

Everyone has heard all the statistics about how people in the US and UK are getting larger every year. Add to that an increasingly skinny pool of starlets, models, and It-girls (and street style "stars") and you suddenly have a very confusing picture about what's reality. Throw in the vanity sizing that so many brands engage in, and shopping becomes a nightmare, especially if you fall under the "plus size" umbrella. The Daily Mail reports today that UK plus-size retailer Simply Be opened its first retail stores (they've previously just sold their clothes online), and included larger-than-usual dressing rooms, complete with sofas rather than chairs. The whole point, per the retailer, is to provide an environment where larger shoppers don't feel embarrassed to try on clothes. This news comes on the heels of news last week that UK hair stylist Bashar Brown was opening a salon just for plus size women, who supposedly are too ashamed to go to a regular salon where all the women are "slim and glamorous" (his words).

Melissa McCarthy, newly-minted Emmy winner and hands-down the funniest character in Bridesmaids, has a meaty feature in the Hollywood Reporter. In it she talks about her upcoming projects--lots of new movies, and an SNL hosting gig, yay!--but what really caught our eye was an item about her design ambitions. She designed her own Emmy gown, telling the Hollywood Reporter that after looking at "9 million dresses with taffeta or shiny bows," she gave in to a design passion she's had since she was a teen, getting some help from dressmaker Daniella Pearl. And she's not stopping at that one dress: she's planning to launch a whole plus-size line. "Trying to find stuff that's still fashion-forward in my size is damn near impossible. It's either for like a 98-year-old woman or a 14-year-old hooker, and there is nothing in the middle," the 41-year-old mom of two said.
