Polo Ralph Lauren Informative - Never buy Ralph Lauren again - Ralph Lauren Products
Ralph Lauren Products
In the last weeks, I lost all respect for Ralph Lauren organization. In recent years, I noticed that quality of their merchandise declined with every year but I still was loyal to the brand. I liked their designs a lot. I have to say this digital adjustments of the models and firing models for being fat at 120 (5'10) is something that needs to stop.
If Ralph Lauren wants to sell their merchandise, they should make it and advertise it by real people not digital freaks. The only way I (and I encourage others) can vote and make them notice is by stopping buying ANY Ralph Lauren Products.

After what they did to that photoshopped model they should be ashamed of themselves. It's like glorifying eating disorders and malnourishment. It's disgusting. The girl is skinny enough as she is now, and I hope she knows that she doesn't need to lose any more weight.

I love R.L. Polo clothes and have quite a bit of it for my "Business Casual" attire. Not purchasing wouldn't prove (or change/prevent) anything as I don't buy their clothes due to advertisement, I buy it because I like the fit, feel & quality.

Anna, no one puts a gun to there head to work in this field. It pays the bills and obviously sells the gear.

I'm 4'11" and my wieght fluctuates between 110 and 120. I am in no way fat. A women who is 5'10" can weigh anywhere from 130 to 160 pounds. Anything below 130 is considered underwieght.
But sadly the fashion world is not based on reality

Actually yaya, not to call you out or anything, but 4'11 and 120 at your max is considered borderline overweight, unless it's all coming from muscle.

she prolly meant 5'11
Posted by littleyaya on 2009-10-14:
Actually 123 is considered overwieght for my height. But it's all about proportion too
Posted by Ytropious on 2009-10-14:
Now 5'11 and 120 is just sickly. I'm pretty petite myself since I'm that same weight but 5 inches shorter, 5'6". I usually fluctuate 3 lbs though, from 117 to 120.

& mental hangups too. i remember one guy on the former moby forums who proclaimed that any woman over 100 pounds was fat, regardless of her height. so a woman could be 6 feet tall but if she was over 100 he felt she was overweight.
as for the fashion industry this isn't anything new. they use less material to cover the super-thin models so that's what's promoted.
i remember a case from europe where a girl was hired to be a model only for her to get fired for "getting fat"
the truth of her weight?
she had leukemia and her "thin" body was really the after-effects of cancer treatment. her "fat" body was actually normal healthy weight for her height.

5'10" and 120 lbs... that's underweight for that height.
I'm 5'9" and 135 lbs... that's the lowest I can go until I'm known as underweight by doctors standards. I'd probably be overweight in Hollywood's standards.

well there is a song i heard about modeling that somewhat fits this...
"They only want you when you're seventeen
When you're twenty-one, you're no fun"
"They only want you when you're seventeen

I watch America's Next Top Model and last season there was a girl who was 25 and she kept getting crap from all the agencies for being so old.

Real women have curves.

I love your curves little :)

5'10" at 120 lbs is just to dang skinny. Nothing to hold onto. If I didn't have such a hot wife at home I would be out chasing L'yaya all over Arizona. She sounds plenty hot to me. (and everyone else but a couple of dipsticks)
