The latest hobby of many fashion designers is to ask plus-sized models to introduce their clothes at a fashion show. This time Paris Fashion Week’s guests were surprised to see Beth Ditto appearing at the catwalk in tight dresses and costumes created by grand couturier Jean Paul Gaultier. Unlike the usual 'plus-sized models' - who are size 14 or 16 - Beth is around a size 28.

According to Gaultier, Paris Fashion Week 2010 demonstrates the contrast difference between the worlds of XXL and XXS.

These retro photos of Paris are beautiful and amazing. They were taken in the beginning of the 20th century. They were black and white at first. But color was added to them later on.

Paris subway stations amaze metro passengers by a furniture collection and interiors they can view and even try out while waiting for the train. This unusual promotion will last till March 24. Till then all people can check out the new IKEA products and experience a new subway “interior” with comfortable atmosphere.
