Nicola Formichetti worked with this non-skinny model.<\/p><\/div>\n

W<\/em> Magazine recently sat down with Nicola Formichetti and the newly installed Mugler creative director, frequent Lady Gaga collaborator and celebrated stylist ruffled a few feathers with a quote that seems to imply he’s in the Limited Creativity Club of designers, stylists and fashion types who just can’t figure out how fashionable clothes can work on a non-sample size body.<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u0153I was only used to dressing models and skinny kids. And I turned up and it was, like, three fat guys. I just left. That was the last time I tried to work with fat people. I think one of them was Ali G\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s brother. It was so ghetto,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d he said, recalling his early styling days.<\/p>\n

So there’s that, and the slightly annoying reemergence of the term “ghetto” for situations that really don’t seem to be.<\/p>\n

There’s no clarification on that, but Formichetti did take to Facebook<\/a> to challenge the “I don’t work with fat people” portion of the\u00c2\u00a0W<\/em> quote. Formichetti posted several photos of “non-skinny” people he’s indeed styled since then, including plus-size models from V<\/em> magazine’s infamous size issue<\/a> with a number of captions that suggest there may have been more to Formichetti’s quote than was included in the article.<\/p>\n

“dont [sic] believe all what you read on line..heres another favorite photo i created with beautiful scottee scottee for dazed. no matter if you are fat, skinny or whatever, we’re all born this way.” {Nichola Formichetti Facebook page<\/a>}<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
