A larger than normal tummy might be a start, then I wouldn't try on skirts in clingy materials. Maybe it will backfire on them though, put people off buying the clothes!

I think the idea is to see what women think. I should think, as 16 is now the average size, that women will be overjoyed to see something normal.

Apparently Debenhams are to use size 16 models showcasing their clothes in their windows starting with London as an experiment. About time they stopped using unrealistic size tens.
