Is it enough to go to such extremes as having a poster campaign, which was launched in Italy on Monday, September 24th 007, in the campaign for awareness of Anorexia? Will it have the right impact on society?
With the death of three models over the run of one year, the Fashion world stood up and took action against the disease. (a recap is listed below)
Girls starving themselves to point of their organs failing, in order to have a glam career is what it's come to in the Fashion World. But, anorexia has been around a long time, and it affects people all over the world. Eating disorders like anorexia can kill, and unfortunately it's not the type of disease that can be easily fixable. There are no pills, there is no direct treatment that works for everyone, there is no physical reason for it to develop. Other than what's in the mind of the anorexic, or bulimic.
Being educated in what's going on in the world about anorexia is what this article is all about. Informing people of who is taking action, and why. Maybe other countries will join them, maybe even your own.
So, for the curious reader, the ones who want to learn about the disease, and how certain places are making it known that it won't be tolerated any longer, I have tallied up some facts for you, about Italy, and Milan in particular. I love Models, I love Fashion Tv, and I write a lot of articles for Models because I think they should have a healthy and fabulous career. They deserve it, and the rest of the world deserves to be have healthy, strong viable youths. And it certainly seems to be on the horizon.
Here's a recap of some of the facts:
Isabel Caro, an anorexic for over 13 years, posed nude for a series of photographs that are being displayed on billboards, and in a centerfold picture for a popular news paper in Italy.
Italian photographer Oliviero Toscani, known for his disturbing photographs of aids victims, was the most appropriate choice for this sensitive issue. Isabel Caro is a young French woman, and she weighs just over 31 kilos, (68.2 lbs) as Milan's Fashion Star, to promote the dangers of the disease of anorexia.
No Anorexia it states, No-l-ita.
The Fashion World has applauded the campaign sponsored by Italian clothing company Flash & Partners to publicize their fashion brand targeting young women.
The reactions from such a naked truth about the disease runs extreme in both directions. Some health professionals are worried that envy from those suffering the disease may increase the competition anorexic's often fall prey to. "This model should be in a hospital, not on a billboard, was reported to the BBC News in the UK, by Health Professionals in Italy.
Giorgio Armani called the imagery shocking, and he thought it was "opportune" as a way of making people face up to the dangers of anorexia, which he said had little to do with models on catwalks. "Anorexia has reasons which are not linked to fashion. Even people who take no notice of fashion get anorexic," he said.
