I think (i may be wrong) that hareem is trying to say that this modeling promotes elegance and a class that is not usually seen in the western world typically in the fashion industry... I dont think family and relatives would be irked that much. There's a lot of people that design and sell this outerwear for a living and they sometimes need real people to advertise their products using real ppl and not mannequins especially because many people would be a little apprehensive at first about how this new and unique lineup would look if they wear em in public, and what the general perception of those around would be.
awwww you're back.
