Fashion's Fickle Weight Watchers

FAT COWS Ana models

When we read that model Gemma Ward had eaten a hamburger or two (or finally hit puberty at 19) and that Karl Lagerfeld ousted three pin-thin models from his Paris runway but cast Ward—in a bikini, no less—we cheered.

Despite whispers that Ward was kicked off Burberry's runway last month for being too heavy, most style scribes agreed that her "curves" were a mark of progress for the industry.
