Lauren Moller, a Size 8 Catwalk Model

Submitted by Meg Wilson on February 28, 2007 - 08:37.

Lauren Moller is the new model chosen to present swimsuits on the catwalk for John Lewis designs this spring. Choosing her as their model has created a huge publicity stir for John Lewis as she is several sizes larger than the typical catwalk model. The John Lewis department stores are located in London. British sizes are very different from American sizes. Lauren Moller is an American size 8, and although her BMI is only 19.8 and her weight is only 130 pounds, given her height of 5'8", this apparently qualifies her as a double digit dress size in Britain; a British size 12.

How is that possible that she's a size 12 weighing only 130 lbs? I'm 5'8ft, a size 12, and weigh 167lbs!! If I lost 30 lbs I'd be a size 8, UK. And I definitely don't look as slim as her in photos.
