Fashion Challenge for Media: Why not promote non-standard sized designers?

Question

If we're always complaining about too-thin models, then why aren't magazines promoting lesser-known designers who do not use super tall, super thin models? Non-standard sized designers do exist and they need mainstream media attention.

I'd love to see this happen. Don't you?

I want to add that I'm not only looking for designers to make sample sizes at a 10, but also at a 00P, for shorter women (and showing the clothes on shorter women). Any size with a P on it means it's cut for someone shorter. Petite is height, not weight.

Answer 1

Face it. It's the skinny broads that interests the lens lice.

Answer 2

it has been tied but it never seems to work. Designers are going to make their clothes to be displayed on size 00 women not 10. It is a shame because we are raising a generation of girls that Will be marred by the eating disorder loving media.

Answer 3

unfortunately in this day and age, the only thing that sells is being thin as skeleton, ghost look a like.

and yes i agree with you, if there are designers who do design
clothing for curvy people are very rare and not shown on T.V or any where else.
