Skiny size zero models.....

SweetWords — Sun, 23 Mar 2008 16:44:25 -0400

We have a real problem in the fashion world ryt about evry model walkin the catwalk is skiny be 1 inch off and ur fat. I know alot of Fashion capitals are banning unhealthy models but that is not goin to help....

Designerz make up that Industry they control what we wear and how we wear it...

Watching the agency the other day and they had this gorgeous brazzilian who could have been like the next Giselle. And some of the agents called her fat when she had 37inch hips...Now she was forced to lose weight i mean 37 in my opinion is normal that is not fat...

Now when will we see the end of sticks walkin down the runway???

When are curves goin to be back in fashion...When are we actualli goin to see real women wearing our clothes ? I mean not evryone is size 0,4 o 2 most of us on average are size 8,10,12 n many 14 so y do we see people who are size 0 wearin our clothes...

"W" magazine is airing out Naomi's dairy. Her feelings and thoughts while doing her community service. Do we really care or is there someone out there who is dying to see what she thinks and feels?

DNA Doesn't Deliver, Earnest Walks

Earnest Williams isn’t a happy camper. Contract negotiations haven’t been going well for the “uber-modeling agent.” Page Six reports that Williams had been working for DNA Agency for two years sans a contract. Finally after some huffing and puffing the modeling agency created and contract that made matters worse.

“It stated if he were to ever leave, he could not talk to, manage, operate, or have contact with any clients in the fashion industry if it involved pay. (Earnest) couldn't open his own agency within a 50-mile radius of New York City. The contract was insane, and they gave him one day to sign it. He felt he was being held hostage, and he's happy to be moving on. He felt he hit a wall at DNA. Nothing was left there for him, there's no creativity there." A source spilled to the NY Post.

Earnest is walking. And he isn't going alone. The 12 page insult of a contract infuriated Williams along with Justin Chambers (Grey’s Anatomy Mc-Eye-Candy) and David Fumero of “One Life to Live.” Both hunks plan to follow Earnest.

Will William succeed without the Agency?

Models in Movies

Gisele B. has managed to score a part in “The Da Vinci Code” sequel “Angels and Demons.” Gisele is more mogul than model. So that leads to a lively discussion on the Fashion Forums. Celebs transende into the realm of fashion, in turn models dive into the world of acting. Nothing “official” yet, but it’s a-coming. Rumor has it she will be acting alongside Tom Hanks.

And what about Kimora Lee? She isn’t a model per say…but she has just scored a reality tv show. It is based on her fashion house “Baby Phat” and throwing being a mother into the mix. *Yawn* No one does reality fashion like Tim Gunn. Sorry Kimora.

Talent or Star Power? Which gets runway queens’ foot in the silver screen door?

Kate Moss and Topshop....Discuss

Also we will be delving into the Kate Moss’ Topshop line. The launch is less than a month away. You can catch a preview of what’s to come on Topshop’s site. Let’s chat about what we see. http://www.katemosstopshop.com/

After browsing through the “look book” on the site the line seems so-so. A lot of ultra low rise pants, jackets, vests and flat sandals. Of course everything is made for a size negative two. A few pieces struck me as nice. But I think it is going to be hype based. People will buy the looks just to have their hands on something designed by her. It has more of a deliverance that the Sarah Jessica Parker “Bitten” line though. A white dress caught my eye. It looked flowy and yet had architectural inspiration. What are y'all thinking?
