Actress/Model Michele Lawson Lands Cover of Queen Size Magazine & Spread in Size OverRated Magazine

    NEW YORK, NY, June 20, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Michele Lawson will be appearing as the cover model for Queen Size Magazines this summer, as well as, having a spread in Size Overrated Magazine and walking the runway in multiple fashion shows. Queen Size Magazine (https://instagram.com/queensizemagazine/) sought out Michele Lawson for their cover because of her great insight into what it is like for mature full-figured women to work in the entertainment business. Lawson is one of those working actresses and models with a great resume and familiar face, but whose name often escapes people. It's an everyday occurrence, she explains, that someone will come up to her on the street to ask her where they know her from--a question that Lawson has no problem answering. Her resume includes being in the popular drama series Law & Order/Law & Order SVU, and Three Denzel Washington films "Manchurian Candidate", "The Taking of Pelham 123" and "American Gangster" just to name a few of the acting gigs she's been in over the years. When it comes to modeling, Lawson has walked the runway for Runway the Real Way, Jersey City Fashion Week, Harlem Week's " A Great Day in Harlem Fashion Event", New York Fashion Week, Fashion on the Hudson Fashion Show and Caribbean Fashion Week in St. Thomas, Virgin Islands. Her June-July cover interview at Queen Size Magazine (http://www.queensizemagazine.com/#!JULY-2015/c1rxr/556bab...) covers what it is like to be "40+ and Fabulous."

"Queensize Magazine provided me an opportunity to talk about myself and who I really am," says Lawson. "I shared my story about how I started my career in acting and modeling. It has been a career filled with hard work and dedication. I have been truly blessed with some awesome opportunities in the acting and modeling industry. I shared my thoughts, my experiences and provided some insight on how far plus size models have come in the industry but we still have some hurdles to overcome."

Lawson has been a part of branding many successful plus-sized lines as a model, and to this day continues to be a part of in-store modeling for famous brands like Ashley Stewart, Dress Barn, and Estelle's Dresses. While she is always happy to support clothing lines that cater to women and mother's like herself, she does bring up the point of the less than equal representation in the world of high fashion.

" Yes, we may be part of NYFW but we have not truly been included in the essence of fashion week in New York," Lawsonexplains in her Size Overrated (http://www.sizeoverrated.com/) feature.
