It's true--no image could more perfectly capture the realization of our fondest dreams and greatest hopes than that little snapshot. Think of it: A group of people standing before a poster of Barbara Brickner entwined with two goddesses in Regnault's 19th-century painting, The Three Graces (which was itself a reinterpretation, with paint and brush, of a work of Classical sculpture)--admiring it and being inspired by it, exactly as they would be by the original painting, or the sculpture that preceded it. A modern audience seeing a living plus-size model bring the Classical ideal to life in our own day and age--an ideal of Beauty which has lasted since the dawn of Western civilization.
It is everything that we knew timeless feminine beauty could achieve--and more.
Still the greatest plus-size retailer in the world, Elena Miro deserves limitless accolades for creating this most inspired of all advertising campaigns. No, more than a campaign--a philosophy in images; a true aesthetic restoration.

Barbara Brickner--a beauty for all time:
