Sophia Cahill, Pregnant Model, Walks Runway Nude At London Fashion Week (NSFW PHOTOS)

Sophia Cahill was among several nude models at Robyn Coles' show at London Fashion Week, but one thing made her stand out: her pregnant belly.

The model and former Miss Wales strutted down the catwalk eight months pregnant and wearing nothing but a green hat at the Feb. 21 show.

SCROLL FOR PHOTOS

Coles said the decision to include Cahill in the show was two-fold: attract attention as a new designer and show the world that anyone can wear hats.

"A hat will never make you look fat," Coles told the British newspaper Metro.

Besides, the milliner said Cahill didn't have a problem baring it all and the move would surely be original.

"I thought it would be nice she would be pregnant for the show," she told the Sun. "You never see that kind of thing in fashion."

But one other mom-to-be did get the opportunity to strut her stuff during New York City's Mercedes Benz Fashion Week, albeit fully clothed.

Lauren Jimeson was 37 weeks pregnant when she walked the runway for "Strut: The Fashionable Mom Show" hosted by Somali-American fashion model Iman.

Jimeson admitted she was initially nervous about the affair but soon embraced the opportunity.

In a blog post on Babble, she recapped her experience:

Shortly after our final walk through, it was time for the show to begin. My nerves had taken over, but I was ready to show off my belly for everyone out there. Walking onto the runway with lights shining in my face and cameras flashing was the most empowering feeling I have ever felt.

As for Robyn Coles, some might wonder how the new designer will top her latest show, but she urged fans not to worry.

"I've got loads of stupid ideas for next time," she told the International Business Times.

These ladies need a little more class. Sorry.

These continual publicity stunts are so boring, but at least the designer admitted it was a publicity stunt! Now, leave the ladies alone - send a nude male model down the runway instead!

She's wearing a hat because someone didn't wear a raincoat.

Newsflash!......pregnant women do NOT look "beautiful". Also the earth is too over-populated with human beings now (7 billion) and another reality is that kids are "cute" when they are little but soon grow up to be dumb adults! Not politically correct to say I know, but I have always been a realist. Can't help it.

"Not politically correct to say I know, but I have always been a realist. "
Then you must realize the reality of your newsflash is really dumb.

"pregnant women do NOT look "beautiful""
According to some people. Mostly from upper class and educated class families, that are so removed from birth and death. Sure the world does need more kids, who am I to argue that? But the world doesn't need anymore art, not politically correct but true, yet that same art can be beautiful and touching just the same.

Why is this NSFW if there are black bars over her breasts, with which she will soon be (hopefully) feeding her child? What is the point of putting this up if you are going to censor it? I thought maternity was beautiful?

I blame this on Demi Moore on the cover of Vanity Fair. Yes, it's nice that you are pregnant. NO, it does not make you look "beautiful." You look exactly like you fear that you look -- like a bloated whale.

It's too bad that so many people idolize the female body only when it is fallow. There is nothing whale like about an otherwise healthy female body about to bring a human life into the world.

There is nothing "sexy" or "beautiful" about it, either.

Clearly only some people agree with you, I don't know why it can't be both. You look at a painting and see different things than me, but its the same painting.

Clearly, MOST people agree with me. Otherwise, we'd see these blimps on the covers of Playboy, Maxim, Elle, People, etc. etc. etc.

Can we assume he's a hat designer?

she looks uncommonly good except for the all too common tattoo.
