On Thursday, Crystal Renn walked a runway at Cipriani 42nd Street in  New York wearing a latex bodysuit and nipple pasties for Carine Gilson’s  first lingerie show in twenty years. Considering the scene, it should  come as no surprise that when New York Magazine’s Jada Yuan chatted with  Renn after the show, the conversation hewed to the theme of the  evening: underwear.
Renn, for her part, seems sublimely  comfortable with nudity and the fact that designers always “want to put  latex on [her] for shows,” a fact she attributes to her  “dominatrix-type energy.” But when it comes to actual lingerie, Renn  likes to keep things really simple.
“I could tell the  truth and say that often I’m not wearing bras or underwear. Being  someone who doesn’t tend to wear undergarments — and I’m so sorry for  anyone who might be offended by my eccentric ways — but when I do wear  it, I make sure it’s a special occasion, and I wear it as a special  thing, feeling special, so therefore the effect is stronger than ever.  As opposed to every day, feeling the effect. Special times, special  measures.” 
Renn also opened up about her weight, which  she says has fluctuated from a size 0 at her smallest, to a size 12-14  at her largest. She has now found a comfortable and happy place being  something around a size 8-10.
“Well, I’m so active  [now.] In the past, I avoided exercise because it brought back terrible  feelings. I wasn’t ready. And I was scared that maybe I was going to be  addicted again… I think I probably have a good relationship with the  exercise that I do do. I’m taking care. I’m just in a really good place.  I do hiking. I do yoga, but nothing crazy, just in my house. It brings  me peace.” 
There’s been a lot of controversy about the  fact that Renn, at her present size, is too small to be considered  plus-size. But what we think is most awesome and more telling is that in  her current iteration, Renn makes a great case for the diversifying the  industry in general, and in every direction. Why should models be  categorized as “straight” size or “plus” size? Why not just have models  of any size?
