Thought I would add one for John Lewis as people were discussing M&S models.
JL landing page really shocked me.
The arms.
I know we should celebrate all women, but I find this rather a disturbing and retrogressive look.
Disclaimer:
Yes I understand thin women are real women, no I do not celebrate morbid obesity and yes I am a tall slim woman who lived through heroin chic 90s and the stick thin 00s size 00 Rachel Zoe celeb craze and it harmed my body image and resulted in an ED.
Now even JL is trying to be down with the kids and high fashion, thrusting this look in my face. Has nothing been learned?!
Not sure why I blurred some of the faces. I don’t want to attack the individuals but the overall look of the site.
If JL see this- It reminds me of ED thinspo pages from back in the day!!!!!

Am I being unreasonable to expect more responsible imagery from JL?
