You’re Invited! “A Perfect 14” NYC Premiere Screening & Panel Discussion During Women’s Film Fest

The film “A Perfect 14” continues to shed light on breaking size barriers within the fashion industry.

Haven’t seen it yet? Well, here’s your chance!

The critically acclaimed and award-winning documentary film is back with a red carpet screening in NYC on Thursday, June 6th, hosted by Women’s International Film & Arts Festival on their opening night.

The film follows the journeys of three plus-size models and how they navigate the fashion industry. It’s a film showing how these models fought to reshape the world of fashion and the beauty standards of society.

One of those models, Elly Mayday, passed away earlier this year so this film is especially meaningful.

And that’s not all.

On Friday, June 7th, Women’s Film Fest will also be hosting the ‘Plus Size Fashion and Representation in Mainstream Media’ panel, which will include a stellar group of panelists including Giovanna Morales and James Earl O’Brien, Director and Producer of A Perfect 14.

The other four panelists are powerhouse women within the industry, who are recognized as pioneers in the progress that has been made throughout the last decade.

We’re excited to announce that our own Editor-in-Chief Maddy Jones is one of those panelists, along with:

  • Liris Crosse, First Plus Model Winner of Project Runway & Actress
  • Katya Zharkova, Russian Plus Model, TV Host & TV Producer
  • Anastasia Garcia, Fashion Photographer and Advisory Board Member of Consider the Image.

Tickets are available here to join in on this must-attend panel where panelists will discuss their experiences working in this challenging industry and the road they’ve helped paving for younger and future generations to experience a more diverse world.

  • Have we evolved in our understanding of the harm made to people who don’t wear a size zero?
  • Are we there yet?
  • How much more work do we need to do? And what do we need to work on?

All these questions will be discussed and more! The panel will take place on Friday, June 7th at 11:30AM.
