The boss of
figure-hugging frock Herve Leger launched a bizarre attack on some of the women who buy his iconic bandage dresses. Patrick
Couderc (right) has urged ‘voluptuous’ women and those with 'very prominent
hips and a very flat chest' to steer clear of the creations.
And
in a dangerously outspoken interview with The Mail on Sunday, he risked
further offence by claiming that ‘committed lesbians’ would never want
to wear such tight clothes anyway because they preferred to be ‘butch
and leisurely’.
Mr Couderc,
the UK managing director of the French fashion house, lamented that the
skin-tight bandage dress - imitated countless times by cheaper High
Street brands – had become a victim of its own success, with too many
now seen on the wrong-shaped customers.
He
went on to despair of older women who insisted on ‘displaying
everything like you’re 23’ and women who wore underwear that was too
small.
The brand’s
iconic bandage dress – so-called because it is made from strips of
stretchy fabric like bandages wound around the body – was pioneered in
the 1980s and has since been worn by a host of celebrities from Elle
Macpherson and Victoria Beckham to Rihanna and Kate Winslet.
