I'm not surprised that Versace had a dress to fit Whitney. Versace dresses are worn on the red carpet alot and not all actresses are model-thin. Jennifer Lopez is very curvaceous and she's worn Versace plenty of times.

I really liked the pink dress on Whitney and her runway walk being fun and flirty worked for it, but the first dress she wore I did not like on her. The side angle was not flattering to Whitney, and I don't think her runway walk worked for that dress. I think her walk should have been more demure and classy for the first dress. She did the same walk for both dresses, and the bouncy walk didn't work for such a classy dress on the first one, but for the 2nd one it worked well.

Has that always been Whitney's runway walk, has she always walked bouncy? I don't recall how it looked before.

I don't care if Tyra had a hidden agenda or not..she picked a real sized woman.
and as state above, lots of celebrities are real women. i believe she can have a career and be very successful.

Now that we have finally have a plus sized winner, I think it's about time that a man win the show. A plus sized man on top of that!

Personally I think Whitney will do ok out there. There are plenty of + sized models and the demand for fashionable + size clothing is getting alot of attention. Many of the top designers are now coming out with a + size line. Personally I hope the trend continues.

Versace makes dresses for the 'normal' women and have been doing so for about 2 years now.

Hmmm, I just read at another site that Whitney was actualy smaller and already modeling befor the show, that they aproached her and asked her to gain some wieght for a possible win... Here are some pic's of past winners and if you scroll down about half way you will see some pic's of a much slimmer Whitney (with her dark hair & blond)..She is a very pretty gal...

Chewie, I heard the same thing this morning on Kidd Kraddock about Whitney being approached and asked to put on some pounds for the show.

Whitney was plus sized?!

I didn't actually watch much of the show. My kids did and I was usually doing the dishes at that time.

I don't like Tyra on this show much. IMO she belittles the girls at times. Some of the others seem snooty to the girls at times too.

I object to the term "plus size" and much prefer "full figure".
Plus size clothes in stores are size 20 and above, and Whitney is not even close to that.
Does anyone remember a line of women's clothes called "Ample Annie"?
And I think Whitney is much more attractive with dark hair, the fake-y blonde extensions are what made her look pagent. Imaginge her with an assymetrical Sassoon-type hair cut.

Did anyone else think that Anya looked a little bit like Madonna in the earlier days? There was something about bone structure that when she was wearing the dark eyeliner made me see glimpses of Madonna. I saw it in the paparazzi photo shot last week and then in the Seventeen photo shoot this week.

Only way Whitney is a PLUS size is if you count 4 + 4, cause she looks like about a size 8 to me.

Plus sizes start with about a 14 I believe.

Tyra has done this before....with Diana, I believe that was her name, also a plus size contestant. Tyra changed her hair from a chestnut to blonde and it totally washed out her face. Like Whitney, she looked much better and took much better pictures as a brunette.

the upside to all of this, is that everyone is talking about what women really look like.

I think Whitney has the look and joyousness of a young Jerry Hall (remember her? Mick Jagger's sweetie).
I think we are going to see her lose a quite a bit of weight now and become more high fashion.

I just saw the photo of Tyra & Whitney and it does not even look like they were in the same room.

all of the other winner pictures appear to have both Tyra and the winner in intimate close poses.

Whitney's seems like they photoshopped them together.

Sporty, I thought of the Madonna comparison in the papparrazi shoot, too. Anya resembled Madonna in her Vogue phase. It's the platinum hair with the dark eyebrows. I liked it much better when they filled Anya's eyebrows in - the bleach job on them is terrible! They look orange.
