So the fashion pack have moved on to their next destination, and as the papers fill with opinions on the skinny model debate it seems that Milan has played a PR trump card purely by coincidence- having a collection from a plus size label opening the shows. Size 14 and 16 models walked the catwalk for the Elena Miro fashion show on Saturday, a fashion week staple which got a lot more exposure than usual thanks to the current press fascination with body size. Not that the skinniness of models is a new topic of controversy (remember heroin chic?!) or anything particularly news-worthy, yet journalists are leading with these issues, which begs the question- is this just another ploy for newspapers to attract readers, and if so who are the real winners here?
