What a WONDERFUL thread this has evolved into. Pennink, you are an absolute wealth of knowledge. You job sounds really interesting..The Devil Wears Prada is one of my all time favorite movies..and fashion is one of my favorite "things".
Years ago when I was showing horses there was a woman who also showed that I really admired. She was quite heavyset, like me, and always looked PERFECT..breeches/coat fit perfect, hair perfect, makeup perfect..horse perfect..WOW, what an impression she made and the weight did not matter in the overall picture. That is what I have always aspired to.
