We're getting to this amazing place where the average size in America is a 14-16, and we're starting to see that represented in the fashion industry, and it's becoming more accepted.

The pressure was if I didn't get into that dress size someone else would - someone else would get the job.

I fall into that nebulous, quote-unquote, normal American woman size that legions of fashion stylists detest. For the record, I'm a size 8 - this week, anyway. Many stylists hate that size because I think to them, it shows that I lack the discipline to be an ascetic; or the confident, sassy abandon to be a total fatty hedonist.

I've been every size in the world. Parts of my twenties, I was in great shape, but I didn't appreciate it. 'If I was a 6 or an 8,' I thought, 'Why aren't I a 2 or a 4?'

After my first fashion week, there were so many brands approaching us, and we said 'No' 90 per cent of the time. We didn't care about making a lot of money - it seemed so short term. We've always wanted to create something bigger.

People don't stop at a size 12. I feel like there's a big thing missing where you can't dress to your mood above a certain number.

We never want to hear the customer say, 'You have nice sunglasses, but I can't find jeans in my size.'

I'm not the typical dress size - being a model just isn't how I think of myself.

I went into a clothing store, and the lady asked me what size I was. I said, 'Actual'. I'm not to scale.

Don't wear dresses that are too tight. A size number is just a number. If the fit is comfortable, it will look more elegant.
