Another gigantic size 10 woman whose unedited body will presumably frighten small children.

My wife is normally a size 8, but depending on the designer she might wear anything from a 6 to a 12. She (my wife) is very lean and constantly gets mistaken for an undergrad student at the university where she works - as a professional librarian with a Master's Degree.

There is something wrong with designers wanting to only design for Size 0 women - and I think part of the reason might be that material costs money, so the less they use the more profit they make. Perhaps that is overly cynical (I'm open to that), but it should be at least included in the discussion. Another thing that might be happening is that the designers are wishing they were making clothes for teenaged boys (no boobs, no hips), so they aren't willing to design for real women, who have both. I don't know - just tossing out ideas.
