so they will fit the dress...

Its not just to fit in a dress! The guy that dresses you prefer skinny models because they have more clothes for thyou have to be skem and more things for them to use! I dont think you have to be skinny to enter pageants! Or to be a model

Clothes look better on someone who is skinny. So when Calvin Klein wants to sell a shirt he needs someone he knows it will look good on. People think this is a good shirt and buy it themselves. Therefore having skinny models is just another way to advertise.

Almost all stylists prefer thin models because that way clothing maintains its original shape, so that buyers can see it before buying it. If a model filled the clothing and changed its shape, the customer would have a distorted view of it and would later be disappointed if it fits them differently.

"Skinny is Pretty" is not the reason. Not the main one, at least.
