Rumor: Crystal Renn To Walk For Chanel Resort

Latest

The buzz is that Crystal Renn will make an appearance on the runway of the Chanel Resort 2011 show in St. Tropez today. Let’s not forget: Chanel’s head designer and creative director, Karl Lagerfeld, once said:

“No one wants to see curvy women. You’ve got fat mothers with their bags of chips sitting in front of the television and saying that thin models are ugly.”

Since then, Kaiser Karl shot a story for V Magazine‘s spring 2010 issue, which included mostly plus-size models. Though Crystal Renn was featured in the magazine, Lagerfeld’s shoot was with undeniably curvy burlesque performer Miss Dirty Martini. (Crystal Renn was shot alongside Jacquelyn Jablonksi by Terry Richardson.) Why would Unkle Karl, who has made no secret of how much he hates fat, hire Crystal Renn to walk on his runway?
