September 25, 2007 Is Being Skinny Worth It?
Italian fashion brand Nolita’s new ad campaign features 27-year-old Isabelle Caro and are being displayed all over fashion week in Milan. Isabella weighs 641bs and has been suffering from anorexia since the age of 13. She has decided to appear naked in the campaign because she wants to show young people the dangers of anorexia.
“to use the naked body to show everyone the reality of this illness, caused in most cases by the stereotypes imposed by the world of fashion.”
Giorgio Armani has spoken out about the ad by saying: “Anorexia has reasons which are not linked to fashion. Even people who take no notice of fashion get anorexic.”
Well I was very shocked when I first saw the ad but I guess that’s the point right? I’m kinda torn about this one. What do you think love muffins?
