The disclaimer that "these are the personal illustrations of an employee not pictured in this article" is really telling -- because Lily Pulitzer is a fashion brand, after all, and fashion is all about being young and beautiful and thin. Every employee who WAS featured in the image slide show was young, beautiful and thin. Of course anyone who works there who does not fit that image is going to have negative self esteem. The cartoons make me sad for her, certainly not angry. And I'm glad that they were included, because everything else about the article was so 100% positive PR, and that image of the cartoons hints at another thread to the story, the self-loathing that the fashion industry fosters among the many, MANY women who wear clothing in sizes larger than 4.Rebecca Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14801489818836195754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6677077373976705300.post-11858320256808746502015-05-30T22:52:22.339-07:002015-05-30T22:52:22.339-07:00Been following along for here during the journey. ...Been following along for here during the journey.
