Former Gucci designer, Tom Ford, may have a way with clothing, but he sure doesn't have a way with words. Although he is in fact a clothing designer, he's going around saying he believes garments are unflattering and that we should all embrace nudity. Especially women with bigger proportions.

"I spend most of my time at home naked," Ford said. "You know, most people actuallylook better nude. We are all one harmonious colour, with a symmetry and an innate elegance. Fat women almost always look better without the constraint and lumpy pinching of clothes, all the straps and elastic squeezing and sucking. We are the only animal that wears clothes, and that can't just be because dogs can't do up buttons."

First of all, we hate the word "fat." Secondly, isn't it a bit odd for a clothing designer who just launched his first womenswear collection in six years to say that ladies look better without their clothing? Well, this is good to know. Now we can all save thousands by not buying his overpriced and unflattering designs.
