Sad: Models Are Cheating Anti-Skinny Laws by Wearing Hidden Weights


Well, this is sad. As Racked pointed out, former model Jennifer Sky wrote a piece this week for the New York Observer, questioning whether or not France's new law cracking down on agencies who employ too-skinny models is really the way to prevent anorexia. She explained, "I spoke with a model, let's call her Lauren, who participated in Spanish Fashion Week shortly after their new 'anti-skinny' law was passed. I did Fashion Week in Spain after they enforced a similar law and agencies found a loophole. They gave us underwear to stuff with weighted sandbags so the thinnest of girls had a 'healthy' weight on the scales. I even saw them put weights in their hair."
