Models should be of all walks and sizes and be shown as that on the run way too.

In the US, the company that makes Dove soap and lotions and stuff have been using models of all shapes and sizes for their ads, and have started a fund to help girls develop healthy self-esteem.   Meh - it convinced me to buy their soap.
