Just Why Would Anyone Want To Buy Designer Clothes If They Look Like This?

Yeah, those girls did look grumpy...lol...ekk, I thought the heeled shoes were hideous but maybe cause these tootsies haven't worn heels in years and don't plan to...like comfort so I can walk right.

LOL@ Irishfrndly65 Corsets and bras may be torture devices, as are girdles LOL but not high heels :)

Yes most models are anorexics or bulimics....I mean what prey tell is "sexy" about a toothpick thin woman anyway that wears a size 0000? Mmmm...funny you should mention legs though...all my life I've been relatively thin..NATURALLY...it was the common joke in the family that I must have taken after my father's side of the family since my mother said they could eat a whole cow and not gain weight...to this day I actually do have toothpick thin legs and arms....but I eat like a horse...uh, it does unfortunately settle in my stomach area though...LOL I've never been a slave to fashion ever..I wear what suits me and compliments my "character" which is fairly bohemian...heehee Bingo...I was looking for an article about the model you mentioned about dying...she was only 88 pounds and five foot six http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,230183,00.html

Pyewacket: I hope the legs comment didn't offend you in anyway. I really wasn't meaning it to be offensive to anyone. I have known people, both natural and anorexic who had thin legs, so I definitely don't see anything wrong with it, we are all built differently. I know I tend to carry a lot of my weight below the waist, and I hate it. LOL But I was just saying there were a few shots in that video that made it look like the models legs were almost non-existant, but from the front they looked more normal. I really think it was the camera angle that made the illusion though, because it was very extreme, I mean, I have a friend who was like 70 some pounds when I first met her and she had very skinny legs, but they weren't even like a few of the models I saw. I'm sure you knew I wasn't trying to offend anyone, I just felt like I should clarify, because I know how I would feel if someone made a comment like that. Also, I remember hearing about those models, it is very sad that some of these girls are trying to be so perfect for their agencies or careers that it kills them.

Nope..LOL..no offense taken here. I do know how devastating anorexia/bulima is first hand since my own mother was doing that. Long story short version...my mother did have a lot of emotional problems...to put it mildly and was actually seeing a therapist, but she didn't consent to sign one of those proxies that would have allowed me intervention in her "clinical" care" Then she started doing a bulimic thing...she would eat dinner and I'd watch her race to the kitchen to stick her finger down her throat to "purge"...now my mother had always been rather heavy-set, well as you can imagine she dropped weight in no time flat...in the meantime I was trying to l alert everyone about this..her doctors, her social worker and yes, the putz therapist...even wrote a letter to the director of the hospital clinic...all I got back was a letter, "Due to the Hipaa Privacy Law, we may not discuss your mother's clinical care. Thank you for sharing your concerns with us." Big friggin deal. It DID turn out there was actually a medical reason she was doing the bulimia thing though...she had a tumor in her esophagus---now if the morons who were supposed to have had her best interests listened to me, they might have investigated whether her bulimia was psychological or medical. The real hurtful part about it was my mother, a chronic liar, didn't tell people she was doing a bulimic thing and reason for her weight loss...but instead telling people that I never fed her and was making her starve..nice, huh? She finally consented to sign a proxy, turn out the last few months of her life.....I went with her to see her therapist and tried to convey all my mother's emotional problems to him, including her depression....his words to me? "You're mother doesn't look very depressed to me." She is sitting there with this big smile on her face....you mean to tell me this yahoo was basing his analysis that my mother wasn't depressed because she was smiling? Give me a break....... As far as all these not normal looking thin models..maybe they all need to see "good" therapists to discover if they are anorexic/bulimic--it might save their lives, don't you think?

Yeah what's the deal with the hose like that??...LOL...Hehe...yeah, their hairstyles looked like they just tumbled out of bed...

I often watch the Oprah Winfrey show and she does a "fashion" thing every once in awhile...she first brings out a model wearing designer clothing that costs thousands, then brings out another model wearing fairly similar looking clothes that have the same effect but are under a hundred dollars for the same look and effect

Hi pyewacket! Yes, I have seen that Oprah show too about the clothes and if those designers have seen her show, maybe they will be frowning at her for doing that..giving people alternatives. haha..

LOL...I actually tried to copy the "model" walk and nearly fell on my ..uh, well you know...heehee

JC Penny or Target is more up my alley not to mention my wallet...LOL

well they do have very high heels but they are taught to walk like that one foot in front of the other take a good one to pull it off without walking pigion toed lol

I don't know how those models can walk in those shoes...maybe that's why they do walk funny..lol

I know...give me my jeans and sneakers too...LOL. Gee do they still call them sneakers? I thought they were now called "running shoes"

Thankfully, I didn't have any nightmares that I can recall. I slept so soundly that didn't even hear the alarm go off this morning. lol

Oh my, that really would be a nightmare...hehee

designer brainwashing oh,you must have this...ah,NOT

Yet women seemed to be fooled in buying this crap cause it's the "latest"...sheesh

I don't know just WHY I thought of this...LOL...remember that classic Carol Burnett show where it was a take off on Gone With the Wind? And Carol Burnett as Scarlet O'Hara comes down the stairs wearing the curtains? I just bet if some fashion designer design that women would buy it just cause it was THE hot item

Maybe they all look angry, sad or depressed cause the models aren't allowed to eat...LOL

I'm a good cook too...LOL

Shall we invite them to our homes and feed them? I am a good cook.

Hehe..love that line...that models are decorated clothes hangers..or how about walking mannequins??

Must be the "in" hair style to have..hey, gee that means my friend is in style..her hair always looks like she put a wet finger in an electrical outlet...hehee

Ironically though, some women must be "falling" for these fashions otherwise they still wouldn't be in business anymore

I read a number of articles that say most designer clothing is made in sweatshops including Prada...Nope none of those clothes are really designed for the average woman in mind

Heck I think some clothes in thrift shops are BETTER looking...LOL

I'm not in the selling of appliances like you are but I do know all the tricks involved with just about any company...they make x-amount of items under say the Sony label...and x-amount under a generic name like Tozai (Walgreens brand)..but it's the same exact thing, made by the same company but the differences in price is unbelievable...they must do the same thing in the clothes line as well, but yikes some people just HAVE to have that name brand to be "worthy"
