Hi,

It is really becoming a trend here, to have mannequins and models wearing a size medium. Not all stores do it yet, but the big ones do.
It is all part of a campaign that claims that being too fat is just as bad as being to skinny. The deal is that in like american tv shows you see these people that used to be overweight that lost all the weight, and say they feel so good about themselves and that they feel so much healthier. Over here you see the same thing, but not only with overweight people but also with underweight people. The campaing is called 'the extreme is mean' but then in dutch.
The last couple of years we saw our tv personalities gain some pounds, and indeed wear a size medium. Ofcourse, all these tv people look great, the best hairdo the best make up, a lot of sports so they are pretty thight in their skin. But it is achievable for most girls.

I really like this.

Chocolate
