Did you all hear about Ralph Lauren telling one of his models she was to fat to use in his new shoot?
The model was 5'10", weighed 120 pounds! Her head was bigger than her hips!
This is ridiculous to say she was to big for anything!
Guess if he saw me it would hurt his eyes! At 5'2 I am bigger than her!

I'm the same height as you and cant remember when I last weighed 120lbs... probably about 29years ago before I became pregnant with my eldest son. Ralph Lauren needs to get his head out of his backside and take a look at the real world IMHO rasp

I agree!! It's been years since I was 120 punds,too, and am 9 inches shorter than this girl!! It is no joker that her head is bigger than her body! I do not understanf why these people want such skinny women. We need real women modeling our clothes so we can get a better idea of how the clothing looks on REAL people!!


myLot reputation of 99/100. Wizzywig (4056)  3 years ago

Pffffttt! I wouldn't wear his clothes even if they fitted me and/or I could afford them - jumped-up pretentious little **** lol

Well I guess I'm the pile of lard sitting next to you then =) I'm 5'6" and like 137. I remember when I weighed 120, before I had kids!!! Don't get me wrong I WISH I was still 120, but hey I have two beautiful kids so I'll stick with being a bit bigger! I think that is just crazy for someone that is 5'10" to be todl they are fat because they weigh 120!!! I think I'll go eat a coockie to make myself feel better lol


myLot reputation of 96/100. erikmama (4232)   ranked 159 out of 2,677 in woman  3 years ago

Hello, my fellow lardster!! LOL!! LOL!!
I'm still bigger than you, and shorter. Not a lot, but a little.
I am comfortable with my weight though. I think women look better with a little meat on their bones.
Ralph Lauren as well as other people should be ashamed of theirselves for telling that poor girl she was to big!!

This particular model had worked for them for many years, and per contract was not supposed to go over a certain weight. Now I could see if the weight was a tad higher, but 120 on a 5 10 frame, come on, that is just absurd. It is difficult to understand why anyone thinks these practices are ethical. These designers should be ashamed in my opinion.


myLot reputation of 96/100. erikmama (4232)   ranked 159 out of 2,677 in woman  3 years ago

Yea, it is very unethical. i am sure there are health issues these women suffer for being this small.I would not loose all that weight to become a model. i am ok with my weight and I do not want the wind to knock me down!

I heard about this but didn't know the measurements. Oh my God, I'm 120 lbs but I'm only 5' 4" and I have a nice figure. This model has to be a toothpick. I can't believe the gaul of Ralph Lauren to say such a thing. Now what does that say to the young girls out there. I think people should boycott buying his clothes then see how he likes that.


myLot reputation of 96/100. erikmama (4232)   ranked 159 out of 2,677 in woman  3 years ago

A toothpick is right! Does she ever eat? I do not understand why anyone would put theirselves through this to be a model. It's fine to be skinny, but this is ridulous! You all are making me feel really fat!!


myLot reputation of 97/100. lelin1123 (9051)   ranked 574 out of 2,677 in woman  3 years ago

Sorry about that didn't mean to make you feel that way. I just couldn't believe the model weighed what I did and was alot taller then me.

i think her picture was computer manipulated to make her look different and distorted. and they later said that it was due to contract dispute between the model and ralph lauren.
but i think 5 ft 10 at 120 1bs looks good.

i am a small boned 5 ft 8 at 110 1bs, and i look proportional and i like the way i look.


myLot reputation of 96/100. erikmama (4232)   ranked 159 out of 2,677 in woman  3 years ago

I don't know. When you are that skinny there is not a lot od distorting left for the camera to do!! I think that is way to skinny! You are really small too.

I think our world overall has a pretty warped idea of what a woman should look like. And the fashion world has an ever MORE warped idea.

That's why we have teenage girls with anorexia. Heck there's even adult women with it!

It's a shame more people don't realize that we are SUPPOSED to come in different shapes and sizes...


myLot reputation of 96/100. erikmama (4232)   ranked 159 out of 2,677 in woman  3 years ago

You got that right!! Im sorry but the average women does not look like that. They sat when largher women are put on magazines and fashion shows people will not buy it. I personally would rather see it. Women that tall and skinny do not look good at all.We are suypposr to come in all shapes and sizes but if you eat right there are not very many women who will be this small.It just does not look right or healty
