the "No-Lita" campaign by fashion creator Oliviero Toscani
This is an initiative I have been waiting for a long time. The German health minister, Ulla Schmidt, has succeded in making the German fashion industry leaders sign a voluntary code of conduct that will ban anorectic or grossly underweight models from the catwalks. The Italian government has followed suit and signed a similar agreement with the heads of the fashion world. For too long has sick stereotypes imposed on women and girls by the fashion world caused anorexia and unhealthy ideals. Hats off to you Ms Schmidt for pioneering this initiative that hopefully will turn things around. Speaking of bad ideals, can someone please also ban Paris Hilton from the media while we're at it??
