<br>This is one of those all-time-great, dream-come-true moments for size celebration.
Wilhelmina superstar <strong><a href="http://www.judgmentofparis.com/christina.htm" target="_blank">Christina Schmidt</a></strong> headlines the new Fall 2007 campaign for Canada's most daring plus-size retailer, MXM.
And as if that wasn't exciting enough, she is joined in this endeavour by her gorgeous contemporary, <a href="http://www.judgmentofparis.com/kailee.htm" target="_blank">Kailee O'Sullivan</a>.
Not since the legendary Shannon Marie and Barbara Brickner appeared together in a beauty editorial in <i>Mode</i> has there been such a breathtaking pairing of goddesses.
To see Miss Schmidt in this MXM promotion is particular exhilarating, as it is the fulfillment of a cherished dream shared by many of Christina's fans, going back several years, to when she starred as Terri MacGregor on the Canadian television series, <i>Degrassi: The Next Generation.</i>
In that series, Christina's character, Terri, famously became a plus-size model for a Canadian youth-oriented plus-size clothing chain called "MoreGrrrl." Of course, MoreGrrrl was only a <i>Degrassi</i> creation--but as the sole youth-oriented, plus-size clothing chain in Canada with a significant advertising presence, MXM is the exact, real-life equivalent of the fictional "MoreGrrrl." (In fact, it is widely believed that the very concept of MoreGrrrl was directly patterned after MXM.)
Thus, as never before, life imitates art, and Christina has accomplished in real life what Terri achieved in the show.
Better still, the images are both size-positive and gorgeous, shot by the great Canadian photographer Max Abadian (a genius at photographing plus-size beauty). Regrettably, however, the <i>very</i> finest images are only available as in-store posters, so all of you Canadian fans of Miss Schmidt should run, not walk, to your nearest Penningtons or Addition-Elle outlet that carries MXM, and gaze upon Christina's beauty.
We do have one picture to share from the in-store brochures, an exciting image of Christina in a purple top that closely embraces her figure, and shows off her luscious curves--<i>all</i> of her curves. Christina looks relaxed, comfortable in her body, and confident, radiating joy and a love of the good life. Her dark hair spills over her shoulders like the night sky.<p><center><img src="http://www.judgmentofparis.com/cs/mxm01a.jpg"></center><p>Following this, we have two images of the dream-come-true pairing of Christina with Kailee (5'7 and 5'8 respectively, showing that models who do <i>not</I> stand at Amazonian heights have a tremendous advantage in showing off full-figure fashions). The colours are perfectly chosen, with Kailee in her trademark royal blue, and Christina looking particularly voluptuous in a ruby-red top that sends the temperature reading off the scale.<p><center><img src="http://www.judgmentofparis.com/cs/mxm03.jpg"></center><p>And here are our two favourite vixens enjoying a fun karaoke moment. Their pretty tops, with lace trim, embrace their curvy figures in a very attractive way, showing off the models' soft contours and generous waists. Note also the beauty of Kailee's full, white arm.<p><center><img src="http://www.judgmentofparis.com/cs/mxm02.jpg"></center><p>Miss O'Sullivan's own best picture of this campaign is definitely the following delectable image. Her top fits her snugly, like a second skin, and while we generally favour dresses and skirts to pants at this site, no one can deny that Kailee looks particularly seductive here.<p><center><img src="http://www.judgmentofparis.com/ko/mxm24.jpg"></center><p>And here is another musical moment with Kailee. Fall at MXM is obviously all about closely-fitted tops, and both Christina and Kailee, with their soft, full-figured beauty, indisputably demonstrate that such tops suit well-fed vixens to a "T".<p><center><img src="http://www.judgmentofparis.com/ko/mxm25.jpg"></center><p>Without a doubt, this is MXM's finest-ever gathering of talent, and, if one includes the in-store posters, its greatest-ever campaign.
One must compliment MXM for its visionary brilliance in enlisting Christina to represent its clothing. She is the marque's first celebrity since Mia Tyler, and since she is joined in this promotion by the ravishing Miss O'Sullvian, one can say with confidence that MXM is doing more for promoting size celebration among today's youth than any other company in the world.
