For McQueen, the most exciting part of anybody’s body, male or female, was the bottom of the spine. And the bumsters is really about showcasing that part of the body. Mira Hyde: My name is Mira Hyde, and I was living in the East End in an area called Hoxton Square, and Lee had moved into my building. I was given a lot of the bumsters because I was quite small and I could wear them.

The problem began in the mid sixties - before then, women never wore pants. The Capri got a heavy lift from Laura Petrie on The Dick Van Dyke Show, and with the coming of Women's Lib, pants were fair game for all women. Of course, who can complain about the skin tight jeans that became popular in the mid seventies.... but this post isn't about jeans.

Ableism in the Fashion Industry

Alexander McQueen’s “Fashion-able?” Issue of Dazed and Confused in 1998 remains one of the few examples of disabled bodies being prominently featured in a fashion magazine, and he is still one of the only designers to have used disabled models on the catwalk (and I vividly remember being blown away the first time I saw the carved wooden legs he designed for Aimee Mullins for one of his shows). When I attended the Better Lives lecture on ableism in fashion at the London College of Fashion last Tuesday, the speakers were all in agreement that these discussions seem to be cyclical — that every now and again we will see disabled models used in fashion shoots or on the runway, with lots of coverage in the media only for things to end there and repeat a few years later.

Despite their iconic visages, recognised across the world from huge billboards and magazine covers, models remain a strangely silent part of the fashion industry. Certainly the role they play in creating some of the world's most iconic images is often overlooked. The credit and audience goes to the photographers and stylists, whose concepts and techniques are endlessly discussed, celebrated and publicised, with models often being relegated to mere beautiful objects - a gorgeous subject, ready and malleable before the lens, rather than a talented creative with independent skills and ideas.
