summary clip

This clip summons up what the programme is about which is why I chose it. It shows Betty and different aspects of her life. We are shown exactly what she’s like and the way she is treated by others due to her appearance. All the other females have clear established roles in the sense that they are all attractive hence are shown to be the sex symbols. However some such as Wilhelmina are also shown to be very successful yet cruel. The clip demonstrates the ugly side of the fashion industry and shows how cruel people can be if you do not ‘fit in’ via your appearance which is the case with ugly Betty.
