I felt so sorry for Austria regarding her castings in Milan during 2008, I think she was totally mis-advised to go to Milan and endure such casting rejections, when it was known that the likes of Prada had pre-requisites of looks in mind (Un-Stated by them, but clearly so!), this is not just archaic in attitude but also limiting for Top Fashion and it sets Modeling back 30 years. I would advise Austria and others like her to boycott Milan and the likes of Prada in favour of New York, London and South America where industry professionals are a little more enlightened. If Prada & Milan represent the cream of Fashion and Modeling within Europe, then I'm ashamed to be European.
