Interim post

I've been watching the SS-2009 fashion shows and just caught the Mark Fast show at LFW. He's a Canadian-born designer trained in London and he is causing a stir. Apparently he had the temerity to put normal-sized women in his show - we are calling 5'9" with a 29" waist and a 34D bust normal by the way - and he put them in shredded, clingy knits no less. Well, 3 cheers for him! Bring back the supermodels with meat on their bones I say. If the clothes look fabulous on the runway worn by a curvy girl then the level of lust in the general population will rise as women everywhere start to imagine themselves wearing the clothes instead of futilely imagining themselves a size zero.

Go look:

London Fashion Week may not be ready, but women love a curvy model
