VICE ANNOUNCES A FULL-FIGURED EPISODE IN ITS NEW SERIES: FASHION WEEK INTERNATIONALE

Charlet Duboc crashes Full-Figured Fashion Week in New York, where the women throw aside their stretchy moo-moo dresses designed to hide their lady lumps and don the brightest, tightest, and best in haute couture XXXL and extra, extra fabulous!


EMBARGOED - VICE announces the full-figured episode of a new fashion series, Fashion Week Internationale, featuring the tremendously glamorous Full-Figured Fashion Week in New York. In this episode, VICE's Charlet Duboc hits up New York's Full-Figured Fashion Week where bigger is definitely better. She gets down and dirty with the full-sized, vivacious women of the annual fashion eXXtravaganza, who love nothing more than to show their skin, and strut every single inch of their stuff down the catwalk in the sexiest and tightest of ensembles. The exuberant ladies embrace their size, talking about being proud of their curves without the typical "fat-girl movement" jargon, and bask in their extra-large, sparkling glory, as they booze and cruise and shake their tail feathers in celebration of Full-Figured Fashion Week. Long gone are the days where the fuller figured woman is restricted to nylon stretch-pants from the back of Walmart.

As exclaimed by series host Charlet Duboc, "Since eve bit the apple, everyone has to get dressed in the morning, no matter where you're from. Each episode is a thirty minute foray into things often denied to us in the news. The fashion weeks we cover act as a vehicle for a broader story about these communities, painting an unseen picture of what's really happening around the world. The women of Full-Figured Fashion Week believe it's high time the industry adapts to accommodate them. They want to pave the way for the next generation of larger girls to have an easier ride than they did."

Fashion Week Internationale  is devoted to the world of fashion that exists outside the superlative catwalks of New York, London, Paris, and Milan, revealing a whole new world of fashion, and capturing a truly unique take on the bitchiest industry around. In each episode, Fashion Week Internationale documents the fashion weeks that take place in cities and countries that normally make international news with their political and economic woes, to the most crackpot fashion week themes and the stimulating characters behind them.

Charlet is flown to Medellin, Columbia, the plastic surgery capital, and soon-to-be fashion capital of South America to meet the style mavens behind the cosmetically enhanced, curvy girls of the fashion world.. Charlet is front row to witness two opposing ideas of Colombian fashion. First, we hit Colombiamoda, a fashion event based on the more European aesthetic; then, we cross town for Colombia Para el Mondo, which caters to the more traditional, albeit cosmetically enhanced, curvy girls in Colombia. We also meet Pablo Escobar's brother to get the lowdown on 'narco-beauty' and sit through bum implant surgery.
