What do you call those things that models wear across there body that says miss america or happy new years?
A sash is a large and usually colorful ribbon or band of material worn around the body, draping from left shoulder to right hip (or right shoulder to left hip) or else running around the waist. The sash around the waist may be worn in daily attire, but the sash from shoulder to hip is worn on ceremonial occasions only. Ceremonial sashes are also found in a V-shaped format, draping from both shoulders to the stomach like a large necklace.
What do you call the white cloth thing that miss universe models wear that says the name of their country?

What are your thoughts on Miss America scrapping the swimsuit competition?
I read this article and thought…wow, there goes a 100ish year-old tradition, it will be cancelled within a year or reversed completely. Why?They are trashing the swimsuit portion - The main reason guys watch.They are trashing the gown portion - The main reason women watch.They are spending more time on Q&A - The main reason people tune out…the most cringe-worthy part of the pageant.They will accept women of all shapes and sizes - If we wanted that, we’ll go to Walmart. Trying to PC it up doesn’t equal ratings.Basically they took all the things that made Miss America unique and threw them out. Now its just another Q&A competition. Scholarship opportunities will dry up as ratings tank drastically.No one was forced to enter the competition. Some are crying scholarships…there are so many scholarship opportunities in SO MANY different areas, especially for women, that not having access to one or two should not hurt the feelings.The contestants KNOW what they’re getting into and most have been doing pageants since they were young.I never cared too much about pageants. I find them boring and they all look so fake now (spray tanning gone too far) that I can’t be bothered. I still have fitness model comps and even better, the annual Victoria Secret Lingerie show that includes great women and great music (usually).This whole thing is a case of PC gone too far. You get a couple of extremist progressives that come in and ruin something because they think the rest of the world thinks like them. You can force those changes, but you can’t force people to watch and then reality sinks in, no one watches, and they just can’t understand how things turned out that way.I get that pageants have been dropping over the years in ratings already and this could be a pivot, but I think it will just speed up its demise.EDITED: Slightly for mixing Miss USA vs Miss America, had to clean up.
Why do women wear revealing clothing?
I am noone's boyfriend or parent. But I am well-qualified to answer this question since I am a woman myself.I would never date or marry someone who believes that he can "allow" me to do something. I am not a child, I am a grown woman. I don't mind someone close to me suggesting that a particular type of clothing might not be appropriate for an occasion or a place, but I am also free to ignore the suggestion. I don't ask anyone for permission to wear what I want to.My mom does give her opinion about things I wear sometimes. Most of the times, I agree with her and sometimes I don't. But thankfully, she is also quite aware that in the end, what I wear is my choice and she can only advise (and not order me) to wear or not to wear something.I have a sister and I give her advice about what to wear when she asks, else I keep my opinions to myself.Why should I confine myself to "comfortable clothing"? What is "comfortable clothing"? Some of the clothing you described sounds comfortable enough to me. In the question details OP you say that you don't think revealing clothing leads to rape. Then what's the problem with wearing the clothes you describe as revealing? Or is it that you think that it leads to other sexual offences such as sexual harassment, etc. (sections 354A-D of Indian Penal Code)? As with rape, men who commit these offences don't commit them because women wear revealing clothes. Those who want to act in such a way do so regardless of what the victim is wearing. It seems a lot easier for the Indian society to blame women for attracting "unwanted attention" instead of placing blame on those who do pay such "unwanted attention". It's really simple, my body is my own and I can wear whatever I want to wear as long as it does not violate any laws. Your body is your own and you can do whatever you want with it, unless and until you invade the personal space of another person, such invasion may be unlawful and may lead to legal consequences.Men themselves can certainly wear shorts and walk down a street without being sexually harassed because of it. And noone's asking them not to. So "revealing" clothing is not the cause. So the question is why shouldn't women wear "revealing" clothing if they want to? What harm does it cause?

Are fashion models born w/ thin/straight body types, along w/ their tall height? Where is there hourglass?
@ Ms Sophisticate: Very good advice from one who knows! ~*~*~*~ Lots of fashion models (and actresses, who are also predominantly of this currently fashionable body type) say they are 'naturally' of this shape. For many, this is probably true as there obviously IS a long, lean natural body type. However, there are clearly many for whom this 'look' is only achieved by unhealthy diet and exercise practices, as witnessed by the cases of anorexia among models, which has seen the need to introduce regulations to control BMI of models working in various fashion shows. Unfortunately, while most models are there predominantly to model clothes, the 'look' of a model has become the standard of beauty for many, and trying to emulate it has led to dissatisfaction and unhappiness for many as they try to become what they are not, to meet an unattainable but heavily popularised standard. Cheers :-)
How can I not objectify lingerie models at a lingerie fashion show?
Question answered: How can I not objectify lingerie models at a lingerie fashion show? Am I supposed to look only at their faces or their bottoms or their chest area? Should I look at the ground?Rather than feeling that you’re “objectifying” lingerie models at a lingerie fashion show, why not just say that you’re admiring their beauty as a work of art? One of the goals of a lingerie fashion show is to promote the garments themselves. That’s why they hire attractive fashion models to walk down the runway. Of course you’re supposed to look at them. That’s the concept behind a fashion show. Is this what you consider objectification? If it is, then I guess that’s what you’re doing.I do understand that some people really get worked up over this concept, but how realistic is it to:Not look at women wearing bikinis on the beach?At athletic men with their shirts off?At cute couples vacationing in Hawaii?At fashionable women walking down Fifth Avenue in New York City?At beautifully styled women on television shows?At attractive men or women in Sports Illustrated?At beauty contestants in the Miss America pageant?At David Beckham wearing just about anything?One could argue that looking at anyone who’s attractive to you is objectifying them. Personally, I don’t get too worked up over this. Instead I generally avoid staring at people. At a fashion show, you shouldn’t be looking at the ground. Nobody there would expect you to do that.
Ugh... i always feel fat. but my friends say im not!?
Oh, you make me so sad! A size 0 and you think you are fat! You have the beginning signs of anorexia. One of my best friends sounds just like you. She is now in children's clothing and still thinks she is fat. She weighs 84 pounds and is obsessed with losing more. No matter how thin you get, you will always think you need to lose more, seek help immediately. My anorexic friend has suffered from the following maladies from not eating: *Terrible, terrible acne- her face didn't get extremely broken out before she stopped eating. That would be oh so great for a modeling career. And she takes vitamins so don't think popping vitamin e will save you, it won't. *Extreme dental problems- hasn't lost any teeth yet... but has had thousands of dollars of work done to avoid it. A toothless model, yeah that's attractive. *Extreme mood swings- happy one minute, hostile and depressed the next. Although stories exist of model being like that, they don't start out that way and expect to get work. *Inability to get better after being sick- It takes her a month to get over a cold because her immune system is so low now. Working models often have snot running down their faces. In high school I had a friend who modeled. She was a size 2 or 4. A size 0 really should be sufficient. Also, the number on the scale means nothing. You could weigh 130 pounds but still be a size 0, just loaded with gorgeous healthy muscles. A girl I work with is 140 pounds and a size 4 (only about 5'3"). She is gorgeous and muscular. I beg you to not stop eating. It is so incredibly bad for you. It can kill you. It can make it so you won't have kids later on in life. Models aren't models forever... you have to live with your body the rest of your life. Seek help, talk to a teacher or counselor at school, a parent if you can, anything! Once you slide down this road, you can never fully recover.
Will guys not talk to you because of your body?
Guys not wanting to date you because of your body are not worth your time.Sis, let me tell you, there are guys who genuinely do not mind what your body looks like—those are the good ones. That means they like you for more than just your body, they like you, for you. They don’t see you as just as body.One of my exes dated me when I weighed 154 pounds. I didn’t like the way I looked physically, but he didn’t mind at all. He accepted me for the way I looked.I dated my boyfriend David when I weighed 116 pounds. He thinks big butts are attractive, mine isn’t that big at all, but he doesn’t mind. I weigh 129 pounds now, and he still doesn’t mind. He’s never made any comments, or tried to bring me down because of the way I look.There are features that other people find attractive in other people. For example, I absolutely love brown eyes, everyone I’ve dated has had them—I just love the way brown eyes look. But if someone doesn’t have brown eyes, it’s not a dealbreaker for me. My boyfriend likes big butts, but he won’t shut someone out if they don’t have a big butt, those are healthy preferences.A guy who refuses to date you because you’re thin isn’t looking for a relationship, they just want a body that fits their own standards.It won’t do you any good to try to tailor yourself to what guys find attractive—you’ll go crazy, and it’ll hurt more than it’ll help, trust me, I’ve done it before. Besides, everyone has different preferences and opinions that are so starkly contrasted, it would be impossible to meet them all.You could change yourself to the perfect idea of a person: blonde, full hair, big eyes, a nice body, perfectly done makeup, and an amazing fashion sense, and someone out there will tell you that you’re not good enough for them. It’s not your job to please everybody with how you look. “You can be the ripest, juiciest peach in the world, and someone out there is going to hate peaches.”—Dita Von Teese
