These photos Life Mag just posted of models at Fashion Week make me want to vomit. Fitting, no? Thin is always going to be in. I can deal with that. But your spine shouldn't be visible from the outside of your body. In any other universe, people who look like this "naturally" (and very few of these girls look like this naturally -- girls starving themselves in the modeling industry is an open secret) would be trying to GAIN weight. It's depressing and horrible that girls are celebrated for looking like they were just released from a prison camp.
Life kept it classy, by the way, shooting models "eating," but "just not a lot."
No wonder models have been fainting on the job.
I'm confident no designers actually read this blog, but just in case...
THE AVERAGE AMERICAN WOMAN WEIGHS AROUND 140 POUNDS. MOST OF THE WOMEN WILL BUY YOUR CLOTHES ARE NOT SAMPLE SIZES. STOP DESIGNING CLOTHING FOR SKELETONS AND REINFORCING THE IDEA THAT REAL WOMEN ARE SUPPOSED TO LOOK HOLLOWED-EYED BAGS OF BONES.
