Would the clothes really look that different?

A lot has been said in recent years about the need for greater diversity on the runway — not just racial diversity, but body diversity. Still, many designers are reluctant to include women larger than a standard runway size 0 to 4. But why? Does it really make that much of a difference? The clothes look gorgeous either way and besides, women of all sizes are beautiful.

What do you think?
