Fat mummies sit there in front of the television with their chip packets and say skinny models are ugly," says Lagerfeld. Is he BU?

From this article

I think it is a hilarious comment - obviously extremely offensive, very stereotypical - really horrible - but is there a grain of truth in it?? For me, it would be more truthful if it said "fat mummies sit in front of their laptop" but other than that...

I know someone who worked in one of the big fashion houses. She said it was run by the gay mafia and she was not even allowed to mention she had 2 kids, let alone put photos of them on her desk!!!

All fashion people are mad.

KL looks like he hasn't eaten a green vegetable in about 20 years

Karl Lagerfeld hates women. He only likes skinny women because he is scared of what women's bodies do - menstruate, gestate, ooze, splodge unattractively over waistbands, stretch, expand, etc etc. Lots of fashion types are.

I'm a bit fat and definitely not model type but I think most models are very beautiful. The ones with bodies like Gisele are pretty much flawless. But I also think lots of models are unhealthily, unnaturally underweight and I don't think it looks nice, apart from every other reason why it's bad.

Did anyone else have to google velvet d'amour, size 28 model?

agree with kat2907.

What??? No need to be over a size 12 Isn't there? What, you mean I could be skinny? Oh joy! Pass me the lettuce right NOW!

And again

There's no need to be under a size 10 either. But people still do it.

I tend to think of models as the glossy thoroughbred racehorses of the human race, yes some of them starve themselves but many are naturally leggy and graceful

While the rest of us are like stumpy Thelwell ponies wityh our tatty manes in our eyes tripping over clods of earth

You can't really compare the two can you?

Oh cyb. I am naturally slim and graceful. Unfortunately I am also naturally a pig. The latter tends to win out It's my destiny.

by fat he means size 12 though. He's not thin himself.

no comments on velvet? try again.... lookie

I think Velvet is a bit strange looking. To say the least.

but not as strange as KL

Wish I had a chip packet....mmmm...

did anyone watch kl on the chanel programme? was quite funny but the poor seamstresses!

I think that women are very cruel to other women.

If you're thin you get it, if you're fat you get it. It's women who bitch about the size of other women, the clothes of other women, the hair, make up, face, etc, of other women.

I have never heard a man slag off the outfit of another man (or the outfit of a woman for that matter!) a man wouldn't notice if you had cut your hair, had extensions, dyed it, bleached it or shaved it all off and had your head tatooed. It's women who tear into each other.

And thin woman who say fat women have no self control and fat women who say thin women have eating disorders and aren't 'real' women.

we are so mean to each other.

that is so true, justmy

I would rather just be cruel to that fucking plastic person, Karl fucking LagerLout

he is a cock, that is for sure....and a very ugly person

God that Velvet (ridiculous name) woman is repellant.
As is KL though (high collar to prop up corpse).

I find the expression 'curvy' for fat extremely irritating however.
(As I do 'petite' for small. It's just 'small' in another language. Use yer own. Also 'brunette' for brown. Gahh!!)

DH would probably quite like Velvet I think, he likes a big woman

Not aht I am that size mind

He looks like a Thunderbird puppet.

He can fuck off back to Tracey Island, the irrelevant old tool.

Urgh - there's nothing worse than an former fattie/smoker/drinker (delete as appropriate) being all superior.

We all know it's your terror of looking like this again that is at the bottom of your insecurities you shrivelled old prune

It's just a way of saying that anyone who criticises his industry is only doing so because they are fat and ugly and jealous - in other words, that his industry has absolutely nothing to answer for.

It's just another way of saying that anyone who believes women should be seen as full human beings whose lives are as valuable as those of men, is just a big fat hairy lesbian who is ugly, malevolent, bad tempered and an all round Bad Thing. Wanky load of mysogynist crap.

Hurray for Kat! KL is gay. He likes women to look like boys really, doesn't he?

It's all to do with money - why alienate all those over a size zero (most people)?

Yes, having breasts and hips is fat in his eyes. He expects the vast majority of the female population to under eat to conform to his idea of femininity.

look here

Like all gay designers, his ideal model is a 14yr old pre pubescent boy. Why on earth would any girl or woman want a gay pensioner to tell her what to wear??
