Plus size model Fiona Falkiner has weighed in in Nike's decision to use plus-size mannequins at its London flagship store.
In a column for news.com.au, the 36-year-old wrote: 'People who train have all sorts of body types and we all want and deserve hot training gear to rock while we get our sweat on.'
