George Clooney’s curvy ex-girlfriend Lisa Snowdon is backing a new size 14 fashion show to take a stand against skinny models.

Snowdon, 39, who was a model herself, was unable to do average fashion shoots when she was younger because of her curvy figure and instead had to model for campaigns including Special K and Mercedes.

Snowdon has praised Mark Fast’s new fashion show for creating modelling opportunities for curvier ladies.

She told UK newspaper the Daily Mail: “There were certain lines or seasons that just were not for me. I couldn’t wear them so there were a lot of jobs I could not go for because I am curvy.

“But now I think fashion is changing and Mark’s work is a great step forward. I’m all for the more voluptuous model.”

Model Claudia Schiffer has said she is “finished with the runway” but isn’t giving up modelling just yet.

Claudia, 39, has graced the catwalks for over 10 years and her career was at its highest during the 1990s.

However, the model recently said: “I’m finished with the runway. I won’t miss it. I am still modelling and I enjoy that a lot but no more runways.”

Claudia admitted that fashion shows are always more enjoyable for the spectator: “I can sit on the side and view the outfits and see all the detail and that suits me fine.

“It’s very enjoyable. I like my new viewpoint.”

Supermodel Eva Herzigova has said being a top model was like being a member of the “rat pack”.

Eva, 36, was born in the Czech Republic and became an international star when she won a beauty contest in Prague at 16.

Talking about the bitchiness of modelling, she said: “It was like a rat pack – not nice – they made me feel like I was a beginner.”

Eva also spoke about her desire for more children as she already has one son, George, with boyfriend Gregorio Marsiaj.

She said: “I’d love two more. I need it because I’m so in love with him [son George].”

Actress Diane Kruger has said she doesn’t want to model anymore because of the high standards of beauty set by fashion magazines.

Kruger, who quit her catwalk job to pursue an acting career, became unimpressed with how magazines portray women, changing their looks through airbrushing.

The 33-year-old told Interview magazine: “The reason I stopped modelling was because I wasn’t pleased with trying to portray something that is impossible to reach.”

The Inglorious Basterds star added: “Even when I do photoshoots now for films, I’m just not interested in trying to look my best all the time anymore. That pursuit of an impossible perfection seems ridiculous to me now. I’d rather show my vulnerabilities or my doubts than try to be something that no one is.”
