Fashion's fat saga continues. If you thought Christian Louboutin's Barbie plastic surgery debacle was bad, you won't believe the latest Ralph Lauren news.
First, the designer Photoshops Filippa Hamilton till she's no more than twigs in plaid. And now, he's fired the 5-foot-10-inch, 120-pound model because "of her inability to meet the obligations under her contract." Translation? Filippa is too fat.
Thankfully, in the clip above of yesterday's Today Show, the 23-year-old beauty declares she's proud of her healthy size 4 body—adding that she thinks the all-American brand owes American women an apology, "a big apology."
Maybe a sorry statement will come. Maybe it won't. But one thing's certain: Ralph Lauren doesn't give an ef about offending Australian women. Just take a look at the latest R.L. ad to surface on the Internet of a window display in Sydney, Australia. It sickly makes even Victoria Beckham look, well, fat.
