Fashion should be referred to like that of a magnetic force because of its power of attraction. People of all ages are drawn to the latest trend in designs that hang on boutique clothes rails like magnets. Regardless of shape and size there will always be a new designer creation to suit you. What you need to remember is - an outfit should be tailor made around your size - and not your size around the outfit you tend on wearing.

Dieting is all well and good in a bid to shed those excess pounds should you be on the pleasantly plump side, but, sadly, there are women who feel the need to follow suit of others i.e. models that grace the catwalk. Images of bony skeletal frames are not a pretty sight, so why would you want to change from what is, naturally you, to what naturally belongs to someone else (Their identity). Clothes to compliment your shape and size are ten a penny due to massive quantities of new designs shipped from different countries from all around the world.

If by chance you find the latest of trendy gear is not to your liking then alter the whole entity of the outfit by adding accessories or get a needle and cotton and make it that perfect dress or frock ideally suited to you're your own personal taste.
You must never abstain from eating food to reduce your dress size all because you long to model designer gear.

What does one see when in the audience of fashion show? Is it the designer dress, is it the smile on the models face, I don't think so, What you see is an unbalanced walk similar to that of a drunk who has downed ten pints of beer while at the same watching the body of the individual struggle to keep up with the legs (Gestapo step). The dangers of dieting prevail if you choose to ignore what is, or is not healthy for your body when slimming down. You should always consult your doctor or a dietician before reducing any intake of daily edibles.

Are you aware that a ban has been enforced on overly thin models in Madrid (Spain) due to many hopeful wannabes - developing an eating disorder. (Anorexia and bulimia) Both conditions can prove to be fatal if they escalate out of control. Sad as it may seem - death in some cases was somewhat unavoidable because the patient - then became a victim of their own possessive thoughts i.e. urging them to meet with criteria which was expected of a young model when joining the catwalk trail.

Modelling is recognized as a glamorised career, but there are many people who fight the cause, just like Madrid and begged to differ in opinion on the matter.

That new dress you have your eye on in the boutique will never look as good hanging on the rail until you are wearing it. For any fashionable piece of clothing to look its best - you have to feel your best. If you want to follow suit of trend setters - then think Hollywood. Think about it, how many wafer thin model types have you seen acting alongside Brad Pitt. If you really must base yourself on a thing of beauty, then the hour glass figure of Marilyn Monroe is worth considering.

Why diet when you can eat sensibly and look just as beautiful. Consider taking on the feel good factor, how you ask? Well you let your inner beauty out and once this is done - then who needs fashion.
