Clothing Designers generally make their clothes in the 'broomstrick' sizes and models have to cater to the designers if they want to work in the business. That's why a model's body has to be versatile. Which means 'thin.' There are some full-figured models, but very few. |

Special in Africa Clothing Designers have the choice to create dresses in what ever size for a smaller amount of money. Its just sad,  |
