Despite the fact that 'they' (editors and writers of a fashion magazine) call the healthy body type - curvy, it's still very refreshing - and welcoming to USA - to see that beauty is not in the "skinniest", but in the "healthiest" body type.Italian Vogue already hit NYC, and hopefully will soon come to the other corners of the country. If you like it, show your support - buy it, or at least browse thru it at a book store (I do so myself!). So does Scott Schuman, who credits his fame, popularity and success of the street fashion photography to the photographers @ItalianVogue
However, if you can't do know Italian language, I should mention that Apple Inc. has Apps to learn Italian - and for traveling in Italy.
But please note, while some of these iPhone Apps are helpful in learning a bit of the language before your trip, others are not as much.
