German designers recently laid into what they deemed a "fat" Heidi Klum, who hosts Germany's Next Top Model. 

The Victoria Secret model and mother was taken to task by designers Karl Lagerfeld and Wolfgang Joop who both claimed Heidi Klum is “too heavy.”

They claim Heidi has "too big a bust and hips and is too short to be a model".

All of this nonsense was slung prior to the airing of ‘Germany’s Next Top Model’ with Heidi serving as the host once again.

German fashion veteran Wofgang Joop has lambasted Klum telling Bild that she "doesn’t have what it takes to be a top model herself."

“No way,” Joop told Bild. “She is no runway model! Heidi Klum is simply too heavy and has too big a bust. And she always grins so stupidly. That is not avant-garde – that is commercial!”

Designer Michael Kors tells “Extra, “Listen, I love a curvy girl…I think curvy people make the clothes come alive…Heidi has the body that most women and most guys consider a 10 plus.”

Even Klum dismisses the negative comments saying, “Everyone is open to their own opinion.”

You two German designers need an eye exam. If she is too fat, I would hate to know what your ideal Runway Model looks like. A Q-Tip? Add to the fact that she is successful, intelligent, funny, and is a mother, she is a 10+; exactly as Michael Kors said. I'm just guessing that you two are jealous of her. And you two German designers were never taught good manners by your parents...if you don't have anything good to say, then don't say it.

Hiedi Klum,

Is straight up goregous and if more models had the type of body that she does than we wouldn't here so much talk about too skinny models. Hiedi is Beautiful and Smart and she seems to have a lovely personality.
