I'd say models are paid big bucks to look a 'certain way' for sure and that certain way is to be rail thin, hanger-like (which she is not) but that doesn't really imply 'pretty' or 'sexy'. Fashion is really not about pretty anyway, Playboy is. fashion is about extremes and shock value in a lot of ways.
I agree that Runway models are not usually about traditional "pretty". It's more about their figures. And for your comment about them being more thin and than in shape....I agree. The only reason that I said she is too out of shape to do runway is because she has back rolls and visible cellulite. Also I never said that models are perfection....
