Real Size Women

The concept of perfect beauty is always unrealistic in the fashion industry. It starts with sketches from designers - Long, skinny and out of proportion models.

Then they proceed on designing their clothes with that kind of figure in mind. No wonder models HAVE to be skinny.

In an episode of Project Runway (2011), designers from cycle 9 started to freak out when they found out that their clients are "real size women". Hmm... So who bought their clothes if they didn't make it for real size women?
