Curvy of just fat?

    In the first picture I think she looks healthy - very slim but not scrawny. But the other pic: her upper body looks pretty scrawny IMO, especially when you consider she's likely to look even more slender in the flesh.

    I have seen her in person, and she is pretty and fit, but is VERY thin. She has unusually large boobs for having so little body fat, which is why, for a model, she would get pegged as 'curvy'.

    I think Georgia Salpa is kind of the same way - in photographs, she looks quite 'curvy', but on video and in person, you see how thin she really is. Like Marissa Miller, she has big boobs (especially for her frame), but her arms are tiny.

    I once saw Salpa in person and my overwhelming impression was of how tall she was as opposed to anything else. Not normal looking at all. Like a giant

    She looks well starved in that second pic

    Hmmm no to me she looks like she was a severe swayback pushing her lumbars forward and stretching out her abdomen, which coincidentally lifts up her boobs and makes her look thinner than she is. Probably will give her back pain if not yet then not so long from now.
    Her head looks huge mind you

    She looks great.

    Women try to improve their self esteem by putting down other women (all the while complaining about the pressure society puts on women to look a certain way).

    But, do you not see that societal pressure is what drives some women to make those comments?

    Georgia Salpa is tiny in the flesh her legs are so skinny, much shorter than I expected too, I'm 5 7.5 and I was taller than her (we were both in flats) on the modelling website it states she is 5 8, hmm...

    Wouldn't say too skinny, thinner then I'd personally go for.

    I'm absolutely disgusted with that picture!

    How dare anyone post such demeaning photo!

    Green tiles with navy polka dot knickers - how embarrassed she must have felt!

    I believe the definition has by now definitely developed from curvy as described here to curvy being a synonymy for obese (curves can still exist in and out in a curved hip shape) which jars with a lot of people.
    Whilst it can be argued that curvy does not even insinuate being over weight but being fuller figured in the conventional use of the word curvy.
    Curvy really is a body shape but its still fat, women's healthy range for body fat is 2-3 times higher than mens so sometimes its placed on the hips and not spread out as much thus being curvy.
    (http://lowcarbdiets.about.com/library/blbodyfatcharts.htm)

    Whether its in the healthy range or unhealthy its still to do with where you body naturally stores fat.

    Personally I feel like you need slender parts of your torso to contrast with fuller parts to be curvy like a good hip to waist ratio, I still do not put much value on the term at all.

    In fairness though I say most obese people who calls themselves curvy are probably using it in a situation where they are defending themselves they do get a lot of hate.

    Um. I was sure. Not now. How high do high heels get ?

    5 inches, maybe 6 if they're hooker platforms (which are actually in fashion so she could actually have been wearing them).
