V Magazine’s ‘Shape Issue’ is starting the year off right by providing inclusive editorials such as ‘V Love You Just the Way U R.’ The spread, featured in issue #63 of the venerable fashion magazine, was shot by Terry Tsiolis and styled by Jay Massacret.
Models old and young, with differing cultural backgrounds as well as size and shape, including famous catwalkers Constance Jablonski, Eniko Mikalik and Tao Okamoto, were encouraged to add their own dash of personality. The positive message is right there in the title, ‘V Love U Just the Way U R.’
