Photoshopped Model Too Fat For Ralph Lauren
Just when you thought the Photoshop debacle was dying down, Ralph Lauren is finding itself in even more hot water. Reports have surfaced that the American clothing brand has fired one of their models for being too fat.
A few weeks ago Filippa Hamilton and the brand were at the center of media attention when a severely Photoshopped picture was leaked, depicting a gaunt Filippa whose head appeared larger than her waist!
Ralph Lauren issued a public apology for the image at the time, but now they’ve been caught in an even bigger media storm. The 5 foot 10 inches model, who weighs only 120 pounds, was fired by the brand “as a result of her inability to meet the obligations under her contract”. Filippa and her agency say Ralph Lauren told her she couldn’t fit into their clothes anymore, even after the apparel-maker issued a statement saying the 23-year-old was “beautiful and healthy”.
On The Today Show (above) Filippa hit back at the clothing brand and spoke about her weight.
