Christian Dior premiered his 2011 resort collection in Shanghai, where he mixed New York, Paris, and an exotic theme. Dior said that he wanted to create a modern, young and fresh energy that could represent his collection.
However, he captured everything except for modern. The clothes were great when it came to present, but his choice of models were poorly. All the models that walked the runway, were slim and tall, with a Barbie look.
Now a days, thin is just not a part of the world. If he wanted to be more modern, he should have picked models in all different sizes. (I understand designers want models to be like a size 0 but really? This is discriminating against all young girls. )
In the fashion world, models represent the ideal of beauty. When the truth is, no one is actually that size. In my opinion, this just lowers young adults self esteem, making them feel unhappy about their weight. (Bulimia and anorexia is not the key to happiness). So, live your life the way you want and not how the media wants you to. ( :
