no shock here… thinner-than-thin celeb victoria beckham is adding her two cents about the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA)’s new “health is beauty” campaign. the campaign encourages stylists, designers and others in the fashion industry to work with healthier-sized models.
while guest hosting on ‘the view,’ victoria says of the issue “most of these girls are naturally thin and i don’t think we should be discriminating against someone because they are too thin or too curvy or too large or whatever it is.” point well-taken, but how in the world can designers tell which ones are “naturally thin” and which are starving themselves every day?
take this girl for example… model coco rocha was told to lose weight at a size 6! a former vogue cover model, rocha lost out on catwalk work because of her refusal to drop sizes. why risk her health? and hear this: model luisel ramos stuck to a menu of green leaves and diet coke for 3 months before runway season… and suffered a fatal heart attack as a result. nobody learned. just six months later, her own sister passed away of malnutrition! so sad. victoria, watch what you say next time. this is too serious to make assumptions.
