To avoid looking like a barn in a knitted garment.
What was the designer thinking ?
I am reminded of Emma’s comment about more generously sized women in poncho’s – “like a wall with a fringe”.
The designer is Max Azria from his New York Fashion Week show. Some of his clothes are actually quite nice if you fancy an eating disorder. But really, to do this to a girl who probably does obscene things to her body so that she looks thin is just mean. I hope they got paid a lot.
