Skinny Banning Models on World’s Largest Fashion Show
Category : Women Lifestyle, Women Fashion, Women Health
Skinny models banning campaign still continues, though the London Fashion Week has not applied Madrid’s “no skinny models” rule, the event is being overshadowed by the weighty debate. The Clothes Show Live at the NEC stepped into the campaign against stick-thin models yesterday when it pledged not to use girls who are too skinny.
Organisers Haymarket Exhibitions have pledged no size two models (American size 00) will be appearing at the Fashion Theatre at the event in December. Boss Gavin Brown said: “Girls do not need to be a size 00 to make it as a model or look good. To prove this, none of the gorgeous models in our December show will be size 00.”
In the past, top models such as Jodie Kidd, Naomi Campbell, Karen Mulder and Caprice have graced its catwalks. But as the skinny model banning campaign rolling, organisers said there was a need to “set a responsible example” to the thousands of visitors to the show. It has also launched the careers of a host of personalities including TV presenters Holly Willoughby and Cat Deeley.
British designer Sir Paul Smith said skinny models are just a fad and fuller figures will return to the catwalk soon.
Launching his womenswear collection at London Fashion Week, Smith said: “I would like the girls to be bigger. I would have used bigger girls for this show, but you have to go with what the agencies send you.”
“The casting agencies, if they are clever, might start searching for girls that are a little bit bigger, maybe even just one size bigger,” he said after his show in which all his models were thin.
Five models were banned from Madrid’s Pasarela Cibeles fashion show yesterday because their image was “sickness not health”. Others refused to be weighed and were fired.
