...........................ZEROing in!

All over India, it’s suddenly going from voluptuous to violin-string-skinny. Hottest bod of the season- is size ‘0’. I’m not here to criticize or congratulate the concept.

Fashion houses become mad-houses when they’ve got to fashion a fresh-fad for the latest trend.
Here is a retail house that tries to capitalize on the size ‘0’ phenomenon.

So, what are you zeroing in on?

ps: And i wanted people to see the idiocy in size 0, hence the nanga concept!:)

NICE template di...VERY different :)

And the post n size 0, the less said-the better, u know my take on it...I'm certain i'd prefer to be covered than be coming a size 0 and giving competition to those somalian refugees...! ;)

love u!

hm.. nice concept.. but that leaves nothing fro imagination.. just a l'll bit of cloths at strategic places will have more effects.. and personally, i cant stand the sie zero... a l'll bit on plump side is what doc ordered for me :)

Not possible na.. women surely wont be seen on the roads wearing those hot clothes.. or better still, without them :(

Smokin Joe said...

Great yaar.. really good.

Well I expected more from "bebo" though ;-)

And what's on his mind, is what's on the board. Dandy rocks!!! ;-)

One last thing, the template rocks!

Rià said...

well the nanga concept works for Size 0 gurls coz they anyways hav nothin to hide! :D imagine a voluptuous gurl exposin...she wud definitely look sexy or even sleazy for tht matter.

The King Centaur... said...

i tht u were fretting that some apparel stores were not stocking ur size attires.. :P

drawing has improved greatly.. all important parts are well sketched.. ;P

The King Centaur... said...

and font was good.. i like dthe font..

Heart'n'Soul said...

Hi Hi Ha ha ha
Wah wah...kya sketches hai babe
And by the way, size zero concept is maha useless...absolutely unhealthy

Personally saw miss size zero recently on airport...huge daek circles with cheeks sucked in...looked like a skeleton...really looked horrible without the "hide it all" makeup!!!

And if you are size zero... theres hardly any skin left... what are they even tryin to show ;-P

AND you have been blogroled tooo!!!

Keshi said...

size 0 models r like the clothes hangers. I pity em.

Keshi.

Vishesh said...

i am trying not to imagine :D and cool sketches :)

Gayatri said...

If you're a size zero, flaunt it.. no hiding concept.. but if you're not, lotsa layers :) Neat sketch and cool template, btw!

Vishesh said...

hmm...there seems to be an error in ur feeds...

Unknown said...

very creative.gud sketches.personally size 0 is not for me

Vishesh said...

oh well its alright now...

Size zero DOES look hot in some cases (it does! it does!). In others, its anorexics and pale vampires who havnt had blood for decades probably, that includes bebo, whose face looks like my ass when i got diarrhea.

its scary man....even with the make up (makes it scarier)

however,i dont like nanga concept. I'll throw up if i see a lot of people hang out nude (pun intended at hang out....ew ew ew sorry!)

awesome sketches(love 'em O's)...awesome template. Great work!

peace, cheers, respect
