Singer Bjork has launched a blistering tirade on the fashion industry, comparing its controlling nature to fascism. The Grammy award-winning musician, who is notorious for her eccentric style, believes the way designers are allowed to dictate what to wear is increasingly making women miserable.

She says, "I like the creative angle (of fashion). Where people express themself. But I don't like it when it's too much of people being told what to do, and too much like... fascism, of magazines telling women to starve themself, and they obey!

"Or they're like 'out of fashion', which is the worst crime you could ever commit! So they get executed for it, publicly!"
