Karl Lagerfeld: Only Fat People Dislike Thin Models
Fashion Week’s around the world happen twice a year, which means there is always debates as to what is too skinny and acceptable. Well as the title says, Karl Lagerfeld is giving his opinion and he doesn’t want “fat” women on the runway.
Just last week, German magazine Brigitte announced they were banning skinny models from their pages and replacing them with “real women,” Andreas Lebert who is the editor of the magazine said he and his staff were sick of photoshopping underweight models to make them look normal.
“For years we’ve had to use Photoshop to make these girls look fatter. Their thighs and their breasts have been the main problem. I think this is disturbing and perverse. What has it got to do with our normal readers?” Lebert said.
Focus asked Lagerfeld what his opinion on this were and the 71 year old designer, who is from Germany, said those who complain about skinny models are just “fat mummies” who don’t want to be reminded of their weight issues.
“These are fat mummies sitting with their bags of crisps in front of the television, saying that thin models are ugly,” he also said that the Fashion world was all to do “with dreams and illusions, and no one wants to see round women”.
Lagerfeld himself had a major weight loss a couple of years ago after he wanted to fit into clothes that he said were made for young boys and not men his age.
Fellow designer John Ribbe says this debate has become ridiculous, “it’s just as much a cliché as saying that all models take drugs and get drunk at sex orgies, ninety per cent of them are quite normal, properly proportioned girls with less fat and more muscles, who also eat pizzas and burgers.”
What a crock of shit all of this is, remember Heidi Klum was accused of being fat ? This debate isn’t going to be over anytime soon. What are your thoughts?
