Curves rule.

According to a survey, British women want a shapely body like The Reader’s Kate Winslet and, really, who could blame them? As the French say, the 34-year-old is “le hot.”

Dr. Jacquie Lavin, head of nutrition at Slimming World who commissioned the poll, said, “It shows a positive shift that women are more likely to see Kate Winslet and Kelly Brook as the ideal body shape rather than Kate Moss or Victoria Beckham.”

‘Whereas I was a plump girl in England who never imagined myself in that situation.

‘I wasn’t ready to become a major star. I was terrified about how radically it was changing my life.’
