Should ultra-skinny models be banned? The fashion industry claims it is being unfairly pillaged for the ‘size 0’ phenomenon. But self regulation has done little to weed out emaciated models.
“They have to understand that being thin is our job”, states one size 0 model. But following the death of anorexic model, Ana Carolina Reston, designers are coming under pressure not to use skinny models. Spain banned ultra-thin models from Madrid Fashion Week after complaints they encouraged anorexia. “We didn’t want teenagers to think excessive slimness is a model of beauty”, explains organizer Cuca Solana. But other fashion capitals refuse to follow Spain’s lead. “The whole size 0 thing has come from Hollywood not the catwalks”, complains Hilary Riva, Chief Executive of London Fashion Week. “It’s too simplistic to blame fashion.”

[@disneyprincessintraining2725]

The problem isn't skinny people, the problem is that the people in charge allow anorexic girls to work, encourage it, and don't accept a range of healthy sizes. There needs to be a range of bodies, not a certain type of body banned.

[@angelamejia-loggia7331]

Exactly. Health should be the priority not banning a body type. There are healthy people out there that are just naturally skinny!

[@chainsawkitten3766]

Because the clothing is about whom they are selling to. These clothes cost a fortune. Most of the buyers are wealthy women with access, and time and money to work out with personal trainers, have plastic surgery, liposuction. This expensive clothing hangs better, and looks better on thin women. What do people expect, them to march overweight women down the catwalk? It’s a psychological sales pitch. It’s all about selling am image...for women to aspire to look like these women if they buy the clothing. The fashion world has their hands in our pockets, and depends on our insecurities for sales. Don’t like it? Don’t buy the stuff...from clothes to makeup. Seems, though, with the mob scenes every year, at fashion weeks all over the world, that there won’t be any change any time soon.

Yeah, I am an American size 4 and I am considered too fat for modeling. It really a farce to say the fashion industry doesn't perpetuate the ultra skinny model preferences, but its not the only reason. Western society embraces these norms and it is seen as 'just the way it is.' The fact that modeling has ANYONE dying for their career says there is a problem. One does not hear about other professions having these types of problems.

That's sad because most models are generally size 2 or 4.

[@childrensmusic4075]

I didn't know that. I am actually a size 2 or 0 depending on the brand. I assume that they take height into consideration. for example a 6 ft 4in model who is a size 4 would look different from a 5ft 10in model who is a size 2.

Well, yeah A lot of African countries are dealing with hunger and we should be worried about it, and try to help and all, but it doesn't mean that we should just let these young girls deal with anorexia and another eating disorders because of this industry's standarts. So the designers should stop and take responsibility for their actions and what kind of image they're promoting, and not just diverse the attention to Hunger in Africa.

I thought the same thing. The were marginally less thin than the London models but not that much. The Spanish models did have larger boobs though. That's the only curves I saw but I'm pretty damn certain the girl who did the nude shoot has implants so it sounds like the designers still want skinny models, they just want you to be skinny with an unrealistically large, perky chest for the amount of fat you have on your body. And to achieve that, they'd like you to undergo painful, expensive, dangerous surgery.

Compared to American models, they have a little bit of curves. In the US our models are walking skeletons.

[@nunyabusiness164]

I was underweight as a teenager because of mental health issues - depression and undiagnosed ADHD made it hard to eat regularly. I would get compliments ALL THE TIME about how skinny I was, that I should be a model, etc. But I was not healthy - my period was irregular, my blood pressure was really low, my vision would black out when I stood up. I was cold all the time. I told people I was skinny because of health issues and trying to gain weight and they would get so embarrassed - as they should!!! This is the kind of positive feedback for looking SICK that drives people further into eating disorders. Now I'm 22, I've gained 20 pounds, and I'm so much healthier. I feel strong and capable. I get my period regularly, I have boobs and an ass, and you can't easily see individual ribs. And the messed up thing is that I would be considered "too fat" to be a runway model now.

[@evab.6240]

You can forget about being a real high fashion model with a BMI over 18. It's just not gonna fly with high end designers. Being 5'9 or 5'10 and having maximum 60 cm around your waist won't make a BMI of 18.

[@OnlyJalenPhd]

I’m not a model, by any means, but my weight, is less than a lot. I’m even 47, post-menopausal, and birthed 3 children. I metabolize everything 2/3 faster than most ppl. Not only food, but alcohol and medications. In that sense, it sucks bc if medication is to be given every 4 hours, I metabolize and break it down. W/in an hour and 15 minutes, it can no longer be detected in my system. But, I’m naturally thin. I eat 2,400-3,100 calories a day, and I’m a 00! If a model is naturally thin, I see no problem w/ them walking, however, for the girls who go up and down in weight, they don’t have a naturally thin body type, they need to be at their natural body size, and it needs to be accepted that every body is different, and everyone’s natural weight is different. I’ve held the exact same weight for over 34 years.

The designer at the end is the most pathetic in this piece, Attempting to exploit the famine and hunger plight in Africa in an attempt to divert attention from Anorexic models and the culpability of the industry is beyond sickening. The modeling industry doesn't create Anorexia, Eating disorders are Mental Illnesses and are much more complex than the desire to fit a high fashion standard, But they do enable it and they don't care about the consequences, For every Ana Carolina Reston, Luisel and Eliana Ramos, And Isabella Caro there is always some model to take their place cycle continues.

I love looking skinny. No one needs all that extra weight. The U.S. has too many crappy fast food joints that are killing people.

[@JoJo-zx9sc]

I know ppl will hate me for this, but I agree. I love being skinny and being able to see my ribs and collarbones and have a thigh gap. But I don't have to work hard to maintain this because I am naturally thin. I think models should not be allowed to work if they have to resort to an eating disorder in order to maintain that size. Anorexia should not be encouraged, but then neither should obesity-somethibg which seems to be a trend in the media at the moment... Encouraging either end of the body shape spectrum is irresponsible and just plain WRONG.

But only after college or school and after working a few years only then a woman is more settled maybe an apartment a husband so both share the bills and so then the ladies and the gentleman are able to afford more but never almost never before that.....One knows this they think us grown women fall for this shit hell noOnly ones to suffer from this to have low self esteem are of course girls and boys adolescents and why?

It's not because of fashion models that they're skinny . its some of the agencies but most of all its the fashion designers they want to fit into there clothes

[@MrCheesecake1928]

Its funny cause she talks about naturally skinny and u can watch at 4:38 she is just skin and bones. Even with that coat she looks unhealthy even when that piece of clothing makes people look more voluminous

[@anonmous4468]

Renzo Rivera Valdivia she probably was at one point lol

[@heiloniris1747]

Some people are born skinny But not that skinny

[@MrCheesecake1928]

@@heiloniris1747 that is my point you can tell when someone is nturally slim

Life can be hard, they can make and break you. You can go by the flow or go. You can go, or go on diet to get very skinny. Some photo"s are shocking. Some modelagencys like this are perverted and rotten. This is not healthy animore. Kills youth who are in the blossom of their life. The industry is very hard and it is all about money, and it is not going for your wellbeing and health. It causes much of stress. When you are not naturally lean you can starve to get lean and when you don"t do this you can get fired. It should be forbidden and it is criminal and can be a trigger to starviation. I hope cury models will be a new trend for a better and healthier influence. This can trigger to anorexia. Pushes influenceble young people over the line. Cruel like nero size zero. At the cost of young life. Life is nothing worth in the modelindusty and that makes it hard.

Latins know beauty standards , thick women > skinny women. Butt injections need to go away though.

[@liamaharaj4219]

90AlmostFamous thats just an opinion you dont gotta bring down skinny women cause some of them are just genetics...also dont like your own comment

[@Maryyeung12894]

great to hear Spain is going the right way / moving the needle the right way. Anorexia is the most deadly mental illness (has the highest mortality rate).

stop skinnybashing already ffs!

I'm uk size 8 and I would be considered as jabba the hutt

[@tiffanyroseangeles7517]

The Spanish lady would've been a true beauty but her spine....terrible....She was a mere skeleton! How do these women actually get through a day w no food at all?? I'd be passed out.Like,yes I've eaten less,but never ever cut food into tiny pieces,& there was only one time,many moons ago modelling was a thing. Oh hell,noooo. After hearing/ reading about the dark" side.Sorry I love a dessert at times not that I overeat. It's called methodical eating. I sit by my cat,no she's not trying to eat off my plate she's in a chair across from me Put some music I like on. Or a video. & try & just enjoy food as it was meant to be.......enjoyed! ❤️👍 It can be difficult as I've struggled in the past. But I've managed. It can be done. Good days. Not as good, Like anything else. But, I try to never compare my life to the others online ie. models,celebs. I advice no one else do either. ✌🏻✌🏻🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊❤️❤️❤️

Look fashion has always been crazy it will never change quite right too ..understand?

[@mayflower2158]

John Hetherington no lol ?

[@MrsHarryPotter0308]

Noo.. when I modelled in Milan I did not get asked what my BMI was once. A lot of my roommates had their pocket money taken away if their measurements were too big.

[@MrsHarryPotter0308]

@Hazel Allison That’s very kind, thank you! I stopped modelling a little while ago, it did become too much but I am doing well now

[@rmslefttoe9024]

That had to be illegal .right?

[@MrsHarryPotter0308]

@@rmslefttoe9024 I honestly have no idea but it sounds like it should be lol. The modelling industry is honestly awful. Even in my hometown, Calgary (Canada) - not a fashion capital by any means - a manager of one of the bigger modelling agencies in the city made his models eat ice instead of food. And I have countless more stories 😅

No one wants them, pls stop pushing women of color on indigenous European shows

[@lubystkaolamonola529]

What about making "Forever 21" rule. Your BMI is 21 your good to go to be a fashion model. It is nice healthy size, skinny and chubby enough for most of population.
