OMG! One of the larger size models came out in Star Jones pink seersucker jacket and crop pants. The pants were so tight they were pulling across her thighs. The jacket could never close because it was too small. How can a host say with a straight face "she's rockin' it."

I saw some of the show, but was getting a headache from the vendor and host. Seemed like they were competing about who could talk more. Slow down, I had been actually enjoying the show.

Some of the hosts are the same way. The exclaim that they are wearing this or that in such and such a size and the garment is splayed open with only the very top button meeting them in the middle. Look, you are whatever size you are, wear the clothes that fit you today. In the end you just end up looking unfortunate instead of being the best that you can be. Also, you don't have to wear it just because it comes in your size. I'm plus sized and there are certain prints, cuts and fabrics that just don't make it if you are a bigger person. There's no sense in looking ridiculous; you can be chic and up to date without embracing every single fashion trend that comes down the pike. In the end I think it's about editing out what works and what doesn't and being smart enough to know that difference.

The OP's other thread disappeared just as I was about to respond. To give you an idea of the OP's mindset and agenda, it was entitled "The Abominable Snowman" and was about how nightmarish the Lock & Lock lady looks.

Imagine how the model felt. I really feel for her. Who cares what the host said.

Many of the hosts wear a size that is too small on them.

I think by wearing clothing that's too tight helps me not decide to buy it. Not that I'm going to wear it that way.

Yesterday on Issacs show they were showing his shoes for sale, and the models were presenting them one model had awful looking calfs and legs [forgot her name ]and the shoes looked awful on her. Yes I agree sometimes the models wear clothes that are way to small for them,and I imagine what happen if they sit down, pop... also it seems like a few of the models have put on weight ,probably during the holidays as we all do. Not complaining just mentioning it. Also I am far from thin. So I do understand. tucka.
