Ashley Graham is Edwina Currie correct

Edwina as sighted Ashley as being too large in comments regard the fashion industry featuring obese models.
I think in this case Edwina is correct Ashley is over weight.

Re: Ashley Graham is Edwina Currie correct

I would need to see a picture to have any hope of saying. I don't remember Edwina as being particularly thin though, she was a 16 / 18 at least last time I saw her.

Re: Ashley Graham is Edwina Currie correct

I had to look this up to see what it was all about.

Edwina the mad egg women has made another stupid comment .

Size 14 is certainly not obese .

However having said that the model named Ashley whatever certainly doesn't look like any size 14 I have ever seen.

She is a big girl not obese but not size 14 either .

Edwina also stated that she was not an ideal size herself, but was complaining about the use of obese and anorexia sized models by the fashion industry and the effect on the young impressionable young female readers.

Re: Ashley Graham is Edwina Currie correct

Models should be 'all' sizes - ridiculous to shun anyone
A change in this respect would be a very good move

The American size 14 is our size 18, so I believe.

Googled pics of her and she is large, voluptuous and the sort of woman a lot of men would go for.

She looks pretty good, although BIG and I guess she'll need to watch it as she ages.

BTW ... she's around the age of 30.

Re: Ashley Graham is Edwina Currie correct

Having looked her up she is a British size 18 a voluptuous lady but hardly obese. Very lovely face too. I would happily give an arm and a leg to look so good.

Sheila is a size 12/14 and weighs 9st 4lb. She often comments on newspaper articles where people who weigh about 12st claim to be size 14 and says it's impossible for someone of that weight being size 14 !

Height makes a difference and where you carry your weight so it's not impossible for two people weighing the same to wear different sizes.

American sizes are not the same as ours.
