That was the message from London Fashion Week yesterday as Robyn Coles’ models paraded down the runway in their birthday suits, complemented only by a selection of felt hats. The milliner also bucked the trend for using size zero glamazons by having her eight-months pregnant pal Sophia Cahill, an ex-Miss Wales, premiere her headgear. And, just like in the fairytale of the Emperor’s New Clothes, the audience didn’t bat an eyelid as the nude models strutted their stuff at the White Rabbit Studio in Shoreditch, east London. ‘When you’re a new brand you have to attract attention somehow,’ said Coles, a 31-year-old former Armani buyer from Pontypool, south Wales. ‘I wanted to show that all kinds of people can wear headgear. A hat will never make you look fat.’ CENSORED CENSORED CENSORED CENSORED Bare faced CENSORED CENSORED cheek: CENSORED Models CENSORED including a pregnant Sophia Cahill and reality TV’s self- confessed sex addict CENSORED Jeff Leach show off CENSORED Coles’s hats PICTURES: NEIL HALL/SUZANNE PLUNKETT 4 METRO Wednesday, February 22, 2012 METRO home digest Crash pilot died in mid-air Mothers feed our food tastes AN RAF reservist killed in a mid- WHAT pregnant women eat has been found to and finally... air collision was ‘dead before have ‘long-term consequences’ for their babies.
