    I read an interview with her once where she was telling the story of when she was on a flight for one of her first business trips back in the 70's. She was reading the Wall St. Journal and the older man next to her leaned over and told her she was much to pretty and didn't need to be reading the WSJ (or something to that effect) Her response was "Well, I'm on the cover". Basically, DVF rocks! #dianevonfurstenberg

    To take the title a little more literally than is meant - has anyone else noticed an increase in lady taxi drivers? Is it just me? #dianevonfurstenberg

    @futuremouse: ahahha we were just talking about this in the pink taxis post the other day, about how rare it is to have a female taxi driver.

    I didn't even realize that the lady in the picture was a famous face until I saw the comments, I thought she was posted because she was a rarity, heh. #dianevonfurstenberg

    I thought Anna Wintour usually didn't attend London fashion week... Seems odd that she's now praising its spirit and whatnot.

    Wow. That photo=a reminder that event though plus-sized models aren't the normal beauty standard, they are still SO genetically blessed (and thus, models, duh).

    @midwestdesigner: I'm not really sure that that high fashion models = the beauty standard. This woman is still a fairly thin, large-chested blond -- pretty close to the standard, I would think. But yes, she's gorgeous.

    YEESH! That outfit is awful on that poor girl. "Let's get a 'plus-size' girl and put her in the least flattering thing we can find! That will show them!" Le sigh.

    @rodmanstreet: The outfit is fine. It's just a couple of sizes too small for her. That's what happens when you shove a size 8-10 model into a size 2 dress. They should have gotten an appropriately sized dress for her.

    @Evie Havok: Good call. The problem isn't the model's figure -- the problem is the dress.
    Yes, I'm a fashion heretic.

    (I feel disloyal, too, since the man is at least trying to show on different sizes of women. Elena Miró has been doing it for years -- someone on his team couldn't get a clue from her?)

    When they say "supportive underwear" do they mean something like spanx, or do they mean a bra? I don't really see what's wrong with latter. I'm generally uncomfortable when I'm bra less, so maybe that issue was taken into consideration for the curvier models? But then again, this is the fashion industry. I'm probably just being naive.

    EDIT: Oh wait, I think I read that incorrectly, are they saying somebody threw a fit because someone thought it'd be more comfortable for the models to have "supportive underwear?" (Sorry, I'm obviously a little confused)

    @Jeenzy: It appears that the stylist who stepped in shoved all the tiny girls underwears on the 'plus' girls which made them look a bit lumpy and may or may not have cut them! Yikes.

    So, the presence of some average-sized women who needed to wear actual underwear with the dresses caused a complete meltdown? Further proof that high fashion is more of an abstract concept than an industry dedicated to actually making clothes for people to wear.

    Gisele--you are a lovely, vibrant, pregnant celebrity married to a football star. This ALONE ups your chances of a tragic end, but you’re going to throw HELICOPTER PILOT in there? You’d think you’ve never seen an episode of E! True Hollywood Story!
