    I wish that they had more categories for women in the fashion world. They are either models ( extremly skinny) or plus sized models (size 10+ I would say in the fasion world) I wish they had an inbetween people. Not really skinny but shouldn't be classified as plus sized. I'm normal sized and looking at fashion clothing none of the models actually represent what normal people look like. Even if normal is overweight these days I mean like someone who is not skinny but overweigh. There should be a "normal" model class.

    Yes I definately agree. I remember me and my friend were supposed to do this hollister ad but they only had size 1 jeans and my friend couldn't fit it so they dropped her. I was really pissed so I just left with her. People of all sizes should model and I also think more "normal" looking people should model as well. Not everyone is glamorous and gorgeous and people (including guys) are getting the wrong image about how they should look.

  • Considering the fact that most AMericans are now overweight, I think that models should represent the majority. So YES they SHOULD be all sizes. An outfit that is shown on someone 5'10" and 125 pounds won't look the same on someone 5'4" and 150 pounds, now would it?

    Yes! Fashion models now are too tall and too sickly thin, and very few people in the world are even close to that. It would be nice to see clothing on a body that actually resembles your own, so you could really determine if it would look good in an outfit or not.

    P.S. I love what Dove has done in their "campaign for real beauty"

    Yes. All sizes is very appropriate. If all models are thin, everyone wants to be thin. If all models are bigger, everyone wants to be bigger. Models should come in all shapes and sizes so everyone will feel comfortable being their self! All people come in different shapes, sizes, and colors anyways!

    yes... for a good self image our young girls need to see that woman come in all sizes and not just a size 1. try having a preteen that thinks she is fat because she wears a size 5.. because all she sees on tv and magazines is so thin.

    Yes, actually in spain they have outlawed skinny models. it is so great. i mean for us normal sized people. i hate seeing sickly skinny people waliking down the runway who once they eat throw everything up. it makes me sick. If they show us what we really look like in the clothes, like on a normal sized person, i think i would bu8y more of them.

    Yes, they should actually. Size shouldn't make someone pretty. Especially since models are killing themselves with their diets just to make it big.

    Absolutely! Beauty isn't about the size of ones body. Beauty comes from wothin as well. Now I know you are talking about "Models", but I feel someone is more beautiful if they "Feel" they are beautiful not "THINK" they are beautiful.

    Yes, I think they should. Since we're all shapes and sizes and what looks good on one frame is something that should be avoided on other frames.

    Plus, I think there should be emphasis that super skinny isn't all that healthy for you nor is being overweight.
