A stick-thin model wearing a design by Australian label 'FashionAssassin' poses on the catwalk during a show at Australian Fashion Week in Sydney May 1, 2007. Australian fashion's show week wound up on Friday amid a bitter row over stick-thin models, lacklustre reviews and claims leading local designers largely ignored the country's yearly international showpiece. Festival organisers were accused of allowing super slim models onto catwalks despite a promise to avoid the half-starved look which fell out of favour globally after the death from anorexia of Brazilian model Ana Carolina Reston.
