Fashion designers weigh in on skinny models

While leafing through TIME's Style & Design issue, I spotted a few choice quotes about the fashion/eating disorders controversy:

We don't see anorexic.  The girls are skinny.  They have skinny bones.

-- Karl Lagerfeld

I have never liked thin girls, and I have never made them go on the catwalk.

-- Giorgio Armani

I wanted to lose a few kilos recently, as I'm heavier than I was 20 or 30 years ago.  It's really convenient to be thinner.  I didn't eat for a day and a half, and the scales moved a little.

-- Vivienne Westwood

Fashion is not the cause of juvenile problems.  There are other ways to take care of our young generation:  stop showing half-naked starlets on television, ban silicone implants if one is not at least 25, for example.

-- Roberto Cavalli

Let's not become fanatics.

--  Diane von Furstenberg

The tragedy of the world is that those who are imaginative have but slight experience, and those who are experienced have feeble imagination.

Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to,doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.
