Weight of Models

[kitsch_k]

Do you think the fashion industry should regulate the models' weight because of the rising cases of anorexia?

Most definetly. They say the camera adds 10 pounds. I would hate to see them in person! It's not helping the younger generation with self-confidence and body image.

i second to that, bagcrazy! they should do something about it. i think when i seethem in person i would get scared coz they look like skeletor

I think I just read something about this ithat in Europe there are now weight requirements for the models. We need to do that here. We should be promoting healthly women, not a specific weight!!

Exactly, the image that is portrayed should be that of health. Neither anorexic nor overweight models are an image that should be on display because neither is something that we should wish our children to aspire to be.

the skinny trend really pushed women to go beyond normal and starve themselves to death..it was sad to read about that brazilian model who died of anorexia.
