And before I get anyone saying that I'm skinny bashing, I'm not, I'd just like to see mannequins in clothing stores being all different shapes and sizes rather than young girls thinking that this is the only way to be!! #primark #mannequin
Primark responded to Mel, saying that they were changing their window displays and the mannequins in question would not be used again.Explore more on these topics:
