I like thin,I like them curvy,as long as they are comfortable in it,that's what counts.

Prefer for what? D for me. Looks like your in with a chance granny with all the ds

Awww Fish, you're so sweet !

There will always be a certain number of girls who are naturally very tall, naturally very thin, and healthy with it. Agency scouts look out for them. 'A' probably falls into that category, though she has bony elbows. She must be about 6'6"! The problem with modelling is that it accentuates those tendencies until you end up with wannabee beanpoles with hardly a picking on them, depriving themselves of a healthy lifestyle and parading round looking half-starved wearing clothes in which ordinary people can't imagine themselves being comfortable. I can't imagine why people put themselves in that position. The money is good for the favoured few, but their lives are not their own. Seems the only place you see 'real' people modelling clothes is in the catalogues, which I doubt youngsters read. The images thrown at most young impressionable girls are the really scrawny ones. Glamorous? Not. Remember the'heroin chic' craze a while ago? Ye Gods,hardly role models for young girls - or boys, let's not forget the boys - were they? I think the pendulum of public taste needs to swing back towards models who are a little more healthily well-covered and don't whimper at the sight of a digestive biscuit.

I like the fact they use plus size models as not all women are stick thin.Most women of an average size would not fit in Victoria Beckhams clothes unless they are stick thin.

Most of them nowadays could do with a few good bowls of scouse.

Well as was said, we ladies come in all sizes and I think models should reflect that on the catwalks.ie have some small medium and large models.

Wiki ladies - this is one for you and relevant to this thread, we will nearly all identify with it I promise ----please see the joke section for your WARNING

Woman shaped used to be my thing. Out of the game now of course. The ribby ones? Wouldn't know whether to smack them on the BBQ or waltz them upstairs.

Bandy!!!! You wouldn't know what too do. Lol

I think you just might..

Yeah, my memory hasn't got that bad yet.
