KATE MOSS, WE HE HARDLY KNEW YA: According to the Captivate Network ("It's Not Just News, It's a Thought Experiment"), and as confirmed by some Australian paper, the Madrid Fashion Show has banned overly-skinny girls from its runways. There is predictable outrage from modeling agencies, who decry this discrimination against "naturally 'gazelle-like'" girls. Because, I guess, cocaine powder is native to the veldt. In any event, "medics" will filter the girls using the quaint pseudo-scientific "body mass index," which I understand is really just a fuzzily-inaccurate way of reverse-engineering numbers that conform to what you can see with your own damn eyes.
No word yet on whether there are any models that can actually pass the test.
Corrected to reflect that it is the Madrid Fashion Show that demands trunk-junkiness, thus leaving Milan skeletal-friendly.
