Post Good idea, but a few concerns.

I don't have a copy of Suede yet. I'm a bit older than the target market, but I want to see it nonetheless.

I think it's a generally good idea, but I have one concern about it: the models. I understand that high fashion demands people who look like Liya Kebede, Naomi Campbell, etc.

Where it may be a problem, however, is when young girls start internalizing it. I don't want to see us developing a rash of eating disorders -- and I speak as someone who was relatively thin as a teen (wore size 9-10).

Fact is, more of us are bound to have the body type of Angie Stone, Jill Scott, Queen Latifah, etc., than Liya, Naomi, etc.
