Seeing her carry that oversized bouquet reminds of that time someone tossed Carol Channing an end-of-show bunch of flowers and knocked her over, nearly breaking her hip. Seriously, I bet those flowers weigh more than Miss H.

Spin or no spin, when you look painfully thinner than your runway models, something is wrong. I'd suspect it's a direct result of prescription drug abuse or an unintended side effect thereof.

@pendletonh: What you said may be true, however, please take into account as recently as 1994, runway models average size was an 8--probably a 6 today. Yes, clothes look great on thin people, but using size 0 models is extreme and unnecessary--please show me one of those starved drones who rocks an outfit better than Cindy, Naomi, Christy, Linda...
I know that the supermodel's personalities were drawing attention away from the clothes, but it doesn't mean that we need to use models who can only achieve their "perfect" bodies through starving/drugs.

Comment that people probably will not like:
Models are not skinny because the fashion industry wants you to feel guilty about your own weight issues. Models are skinny because the fashion industry wants to sell you clothes. Samples are more economically efficient to produce in smaller sizes. In addition, clothing is easier to fit to a smaller figure. Lastly, a longer figure (thus, thin) is more like a hanger for clothing than a curvy woman is. Thin models are intended to draw your attention to the clothing, not the girl in the clothing. This is also why models all walk like robots and have blank faces.

I want to say that I prefer Nicky to Paris but really, both are equally brain-dead. I recall on Project Runway that Sasha Cohen, a freaking figure skater, not someone with her own 'line,' was able to articulate her impressions of the presented designs faaaar better than Miss Hilton and her robotic, "Yah, that dress is like, waaay preh-teh." Ugh.

Re: pix 1 and 3; it's time to STOP the cross-legged cat walk style!

I can't focus on the clothes becos I'm watching for the inevitable stomp-stumble.

What are they doing? Practicing against their homeward-bound police-stop for suspicion of DUI, and then demonstrating they can walk a straight line with opposing feet even?

("How's that Ossifer? Say,, yer kinda cute!")

- Meanwhile the pulled-over black SUV on idle has been left in gear and is motoring down the street. Moddle is oblivious, singing along with the Ramones at the top of her teeny lungs ....

BTW where do you find tulips with four-foot stems that Hiltie is carrying? - I'm impressed!

BTW2: No way her knees are ever going to touch even with duct-tape.

===
All sneers aside I like her collection.

I like the little black dress, actually. Looks like two layers of material, love the teeny bit of lace accent at the hem; very delicate, classy and so not like the rest of the collection!

i've always much prefered her to paris, and think she as more a great deal more talent (though i'm not a huge fan of this collection).. and is classier to boot... but wow i hope she gets help regarding her weight; her weight loss looks to the point of taking a serious toll on her health (or if it hasn't yet, it certainly will if she keeps this up)

I've always felt sorry for her because she seems to be such an awkward, gangly sidekick to Paris's queen-bee divaness. That said, the poor thing has no taste and a desperate need for calories. Who would wear this dominatrix equestrienne shit, anyway? And did anyone catch the pics of her house in the latest issue of InStyle? Wall to wall fug. I don't see how she doesn't suffer vertigo every time she walks through the door.
