“It’s depressing when the clothes don’t fit and you are always the odd one out…I was on a shoot last week and the stylist took out this tight corset dress and said, ‘Here, put it on,’ and I was like, ‘Who are you kidding?’ There was no way, so that was very rude of her. It’s like, come on, she’s a woman; whether you’re buying jeans at the mall, or wearing couture, you know what it’s like for clothes not to fit. It’s not an easy kind of rejections, because it’s very personal. It’s you, your body. You take it to heart.” –Lara Stone to Vogue

I don’t discount Lara’s feelings. I love that she expressed this! She’s not whining or asking for sympathy, she’s making a statement about how tough on women the industry is that they think even Lara is too big. Lara has 35″ hips, which sounds smallish to me and looks fantastic on her, but all the other models have hips no bigger than 34″. It’s interesting to know they are hard on her because I think she has possbibly the most beautiful body in modeling. To me, a slim hourglass is perfect. It’s a sad statement that such loveliness is criticized by the fashion industry. I say good for her for talking about this. No if only Vogue would pay some heed to what she is saying. Just like I like ethnic diversity in models, body diversity would be nice too.

Stop crying and get on the treadmill.

Lara's size is irrelevant, its her size compared to where she is. Just like a real fat person on the street next to someone of a healthy weight. It hurts.
