Fitness Cure

Even in her most popular moments,
Claudia Schiffer was never as skinny as the models today.

It’s nice to know that a famous super model is seeing what other’s see: an unhealthy look promoted to the public in the form of ‘models’ who are underweight in comparison to the average population.

In a recent interview, Claudia Schiffer quoted:

“It doesn’t really look good any more. Fashion looks good on thin models, but when you look at today’s models you can not help but think there is something wrong. They are way too thin. It is only bones that stick out. Models have always been thin. But today, they are even thinner, which is unbelievable. I was one of the fattest when I started. Ever since I started having children, I can eat whatever I want. I eat chocolate almost every day and drink whole milk so that I don’t lose any more (weight). When media started writing that I looked too thin and ill, I went to the doctor. He said I was healthy. I didn’t gain weight after the pregnancies. I hope it stays like that.”

I’ve always considered models to be like ‘clothes hangers’ – with no real shape to them, just a skinny frame to let the clothes ‘hang’ on them.

Dress hangers vs. Skinny Models?
