Body Positivity in the past? Guardian tells about changes on fashion runways.


Fashion industry experts are concerned about the trend of returning to "extremely skinny models". At the latest shows, 95% of the looks were presented by women of "zero size" (European sizes 40-42).
In light of these developments, experts note that we are witnessing a troubling return to the use of "extremely skinny models" in cities like New York, London, Milan, and Paris.
On the same shows, only 0.8% of the looks belonged to plus-size models (size 52 and above). In addition, in Milan shows, 98% of the models were thin.
Skinny models have always been the most popular on the runways, but recently designers have tried to present a greater range of clothing for different body types. Already in 2000, model Jill Courtlow became the headliner of the Chanel show, she was the first model in a decade to have a size larger than European size 42.
Anna Shillinglow, the founder of the model agency Milk Management, claims that we are taking a step back, as so many fashion designers see models with curvy figures only as a fashion trend. She also notes that the average clothing size in the UK is UK 16.
Although a few medium and plus-size models were included in the Chanel house collections, other luxury brands have not joined this trend. Diversity is presented in the collections of new designers.
Paris Fashion Week
Recently Paris Fashion Week took place. During this event, the fashion house L'Oreal presented its dresses at a show at the National Paris Opera. Kendall Jenner and Cara Delevingne amazed the audience with revealing outfits, and Eva Longoria and Jane Fonda also showcased luxurious dresses during the Walk Your Worth show as part of the spring-summer women's collection 'Collection 2025'.
