skinny models

Organizers say they want to project an image of beauty and health, rather than a waif-like, or heroin chic look.

(The regional government is the primary sponsor of the show)

Dang, we might see decent looking women, and clothes that look good on them. Heroin-chic: impaling yourself on a pubic bone, or snuggling up to a lumpy sack of bones with tits is not fun. But then.. few of these designers live in the real world anyway.
