What i would like to see you have is more models who are older, I'm a size 14 and mostly you show the clothes on darling super skinny gals and occasionally a young lady who has  a little fuller figure which I appreciate but you rarely have older women!  

 

 

 


I agree. I'd like to see more models in more age and size ranges. Oftentimes all I see are models who have flawless young skin and who have flawless young figures. I'm not inclined to purchase when I won't know how an item will look on my skin or body type.

 when i watch maria who used to be a plus size but then she lost weight, i believe she wears a large, her clothes don't fit her properly. if she wears a cardigan you can tell it doesn't fit her right. she keeps trying to hold them as close as she can. i always would think to myself why don't the models have the proper sizes on?

@KaliaMonet You must be young if you think most of the models you listed are old.I think blonde Maria and Mary are a good age to satisfy having an older model.

I realize that the trend today is smaller clothing, tight fitting, both on men and women.  It was ridiculous in the 60's (I thought) and it's ridiculous now.  If the clothing is too tight, it doesn't make the individual look smaller, just the opposite.... people look and think the person is "busting" out of their clothing.  However if a person wears clothing that actually fits (or even a little larger than necessary) the impression is that the person has lost weight....because the body doesn't look smashed into the clothing....  it's absolutely true and groups like Weight Watchers or TOPS have had classes that will detail how to dress to look thinner....

I didn't say "old," I said "older." There is a difference. "Older" can mean over 20, 30, or 40. "Old" has an entirely different connotation. Perhaps you should reread my statement and make sure to apply the spirit of what was actually written instead of placing incorrect statements into a simple comment pointing out that older models do exist on the Q.
