Wanted: Bad Posture

This is one dilemma I have with fashion photo shoots. Why is it that we grow up thinking good posture is so important yet all these designers make their models slouch in their ads?
The PR explanation was that new styles are more care free and fits everyone and models need to show that they are not perfect. It is supposedly an attempt to connect these designs with the real world... (What???)
I just don't buy it... I think it is a fashion trend... Some artsy thing none of us can explain.

America's next top model loves it too... I hear Tyra and the crew directing their models to hunch, thrust their pelvis back and slow more collar bones...

I think it looks kinda artsy and cool but why did this trend start? I do not know
