Because there’s no such thing as giving this issue too much airtime, check out this video of Crystal Renn and model-turned-documentary filmmaker Sara Ziff talking about the dearth of size (and race) diversity on the runways with the head of Fordham’s Fashion Law Institute Susan Scafidi. Renn makes quite possibly the most solid point about the whole issue in arguing that if designers actually showed their clothes on a wide variety of models, people would stop looking at the models and look only at the clothes.
