LONDON, Sep 26, 2010 / FW/ — When the Sexiest Woman Alive is a plus size, then we know that the world is once again in love with curves.
“Mad Men” star Christina Hendricks has been named by Esquire Magazine as the Sexiest Woman Alive. At 5 ft 8 in tall, and wears a size 14, the 35-year old and currently the face of London Fog is definitely a curvaceous woman.
Yet, as high profile as she is, Christina Hendricks still has a hard time finding clothes like most plus size women, saying that fashion designers refuse to outfit her size 14 frame.
As recent as the 2010 Emmy’s, Ms. Hendricks told CBS News before the awards night “I’m still struggling for someone to give me a darn dress.” She eventually found a Zac Posen number and wowed the crowd.
