Madrid bans too-thin models from catwalk:

http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20060908...n_060908143012

Excerpt:

"Organisers said they wanted to "help ensure public opinion does not associate fashion, and fashion shows in particular, with an increase in anorexia, a disease which, along with bulimia, is considered ... as a mental and behavioural problem".


 


I think this is a good thing, what does everyone else think?

The skinniest anorexic in this country is a 33 year old woman who weighs 3 stone, 7 pounds. She was in the same clinic as BB's Nikki.
