Christina Hendricks at the Emmys & Creative Emmys

Christina Hendricks at the Emmys & Creative Emmys

Christina Hendricks may have been named the Best Looking Woman in the nation earlier this year by Esquire Magazine, but the fashion industry by in large – including names such as Armani, Versace, Vera Wang & Chanel – simply hasn’t loaned Christina a single dress since the star has been on the scene and attended numerous award ceremonies. This is likely due to Christina’s curvy and voluptuous figure.

The “Mad Men” star recently commented to the Daily Mail publication that “‘People have been saying some nice, wonderful things about me… yet not one single designer in town will loan me a dress.” The fact of the matter is that fashion designers tend to only lend out a size 0, 1, or 2.

The lavender dress she wore to the Emmys this past week was designed by Zac Posen. She also wore a black gown designed by Posen to the Creative Emmys. Although her dress size (largely due to Christina’s cup size) was a reported 14, she still looks amazing and has a one of a kind figure and is sexy as ever. At this point the fashionistas such as Donatella, and other designers should get real and realize that not every size in Hollywood (let alone the world) are a size 0, 1 or 2 for that matter! And being sexy is not relegated to those sizes either.

Recently our very own Christina Hendricks confessed to the British GQ magazine that she used to feel “invisible” before the hit AMC TV show, ‘Mad Men’.

And recently a yearbook photo surfaced from a student literary magazine at Fairfax High School in Virginia, which Christina attended in the 90s which shows her as a very pretty thespian (and dare we say geeky?).  Here’s a copy of the photo (Christina is circled):

As previously posted, Hendricks was recently named as a role model to young women for her healthy figure by Britain’s equalities minister.

NBC pulled a series of “Mad Men” inspired Emmy TV ads after complaints of favoritism.  Don Draper himself would have been fuming if this were an ad campaign that he’d been working on for a client. Jimmy Fallon, this year’s host of the Emmys, was in the promotional spots for the awards show, where he’s seen filmed as Don Draper, from the critically acclaimed TV drama.

The clips also feature none other then “Mad Men” star Christina Hendricks. In the first released series of spots, the  plot centers around Fallon, as Draper, who loses his cool when “Joan” informs him of several different he’s hosting the Emmys this year.

The commercials were pulled after rival networks of AMC, the home of “Mad Men,” supposedly began complaining of favoritism. Their gripe, which does seem to have validity, is that the award show’s voting process is still underway and hasn’t finished, and they argue that the campaign is simply a free promotion for “Mad Men”, which happens to be up for 17 Emmy Awards. NBC hasn’t commented after various news outlets reached out.

Check out a clip of the commercials here:

Christina has been hailed as a healthy role model by the Britain’s Equities Minister, Lynn Featherstone, a long time campaigner against waif model photo shoots. Her aim has been to promote body confidence amongst young women and teenage girls, and hold talks with leaders of the fashion industry, including magazine editors and advertising executives, to discuss how to out an end to photo-shopped, and airbrushed images and reducing the pressure for young women to try and conform to what are unachievable stereotypes for most people.

One of Featherstone’s goals is to force the labeling of airbrushed images and photographs. In a recent interview she said, “the dreadful pressure that young people, girls and women come under to conform to completely unachievable body stereotypes.”  And thus, she wants all airbrushed photographs to be labeled as such.

As reported recently Featherstone commented that, “… she’s absolutely fabulous,” regarding Hendricks. “All women have felt that pressure of having to conform to an unrealistic stereotype,

which plagues them their whole life. It is not just the immediate harm; it is something that lasts a lifetime. Young girls are under intense pressure the whole time,” continued Featherstone as quoted in the Guardian.

The positive press is a great momentum builder as Season 4 of Mad Men aired last night, as the country is reminded of how smoking cigarettes incessantly and having a cocktail during a late night at work was the norm.

The sexy star of Mad Men — and Esquire’s all-new issue devoted to women — has a few things she’d like to get off her chest. Also, watermelon.

We love your body. If we’re in love with you, we love your body. Your potbelly, everything. Even if you’re insecure about something, we love your body. You feel like you’re not this or that? We love your body. We embrace everything. Because it’s you.

Speaking of your body, you don’t understand the power of your own smell. Any woman who is currently with a man is with him partly because she loves the way he smells. And if we haven’t smelled you for a day or two and then we suddenly are within inches of you, we swoon. We get light-headed. It’s intoxicating. It’s heady.


We remember forever what you say about the bodies of other women. When you mention in passing that a certain woman is attractive — could be someone in the office, a woman on the street, a celebrity, any woman in the world, really — your comment goes into a steel box and it stays there forever. We will file the comment under “Women He Finds Attractive.” It’s not about whether or not we approve of the comment. It’s about learning what you think is sexy and how we might be able to convey it. It’s about keeping our man by knowing what he likes.
