recently Swan had this great interview with a former model for Calvin Klein and
other %uh
at fashion designers including Chanel her name is
Sarah their official speaking out against the fashion industry so
the fashion industry has gotten a lot he because the body image issues because
the way models are treated
a lot of them have eating disorders in fact according to this analysis about 64
percent
up models have been told by their managers they need to lose weight
well she wanted to shine light on other issues within the industry and I think
that they're really fascinating especially when it comes to teenagers
working as models so she tell so on the following
often teenage girls were 14 15 16 are cast a model
clothing that's marketed to women they haven't really developed hipster breast
their valued for that sort of %uh androgynous tall skinny look
and so they're often you know working in a dole environment with a dull pressures
but they don't have the maturity to handle and they're also pressure to
maintain that busy week
which in most cases is almost impossible
and that's where she says the majority the eating disorders develop
because as a teenager you don't have while if you're skinny model you don't
have much meat on your bones right
as you get older you start to fill out and a lot of these girls feel a lot of
pressure to prevent that from happening
yeah but just when I thought I couldn't dislike the fashion industry anymore
I'm actually surprised at the numbers only 64 percent for
pressured to you know lose weight notified it was ninety-eight percent
I what I can understand as are the parents who allow their kids to go in
this industry
I mean you think that the movie industry in the you know TV industry's bad we do
you know the fashion industry
I mean unbelievable pressure the pressure to do liposuction ZS
I mean it's insanity what do you do when your kids and then you got these people
were taking advantage of them is and is going to explain
get a manner that industry you're not I think that it kinda speaks to
the obsession with well and and fame
right knee has a lot of people out there what the wealth and the fame regardless
of what they have to do to get it
you know you have someone no-name people doing sex tapes and that was like the
beginning up it and then now you see other symptoms about apps
obsession so she also said that she had spoken to models who don't get their
period anymore
because they put their body through so much to try to stay thin
and also when it comes to up sexual coercion she touches on that a little
bit which I think Paul is interesting and I do think that this was legal but
apparently
on some models were underaged do pose
I topless in some instances and according to her I remember being 14
years-old and put in situations
I on shoots where I was asked to pose topless
and I know it might sound strange but I didn't know that I couldn't say no
and I knew that it didn't feel right but I just wanted to be liked
and I was surrounded by adult in positions of authority great
on time while the other problems adding perverts who think although it's hard
for me to convince an adult
taking off her top but I am missus fourteen-year-old to take off her top
right now obviously those topless photos are ever on
are gonna make it for commercial use but but in these cases you know
their own somewhere they're going somewhere exactly I mean
your so listened you know i've talked about this before in and out a lot of
heat for but I don't care in the
you know I'll double-down on trickle-down okay
the do something dramatically wrong with the industry if you just want like
people who look like hangers just use hangers
great and white rice on clothes for human beings
is sort of hangers rate and so they're obsessed with the super skinny people
and they abuse them and they get it the
psychological issues they're doing you know all the surgeries plastic surgeries
bow ties to set her up
I'm kids under 18 8am take their top of
it's just it's in so many ways is sickening industry yes oh this is this a
lot
obviously anecdotal evidence I don't know how widespread this is within the
fashion industry but
the doctor I go to is also dermatologist right
so she's my primary pic care position she was telling me
that some time shall have really really young people come and
teenagers asking for both talks and their parents sign off for it
and the reason why they do that is because they're in the modeling industry
and they do it
as a preventative measure they want to print
prevent wrinkles from happening in the future which is the absolutely crazy
because if you like
sixteen-years-old you have no business getting both talks with absolutely
ridiculous this is George Bush's fault
with the a.m preemptively attacked the wrinkles with the attack them over there
before they attacked us over here
okay this is crazy notice hella I'm sure they're lovely parks the fashion
industry there are people who care about
that it topic and I hope that you can cover did the same way I would my
covering it the same way
right and I don't mind people who work in an industry in
and of course there are plenty of them with morals and ethics and all that
stuff right
um but it's a sign of our culture do we become so obsessed
with beauty and appearance and fame and wealth as you pointed out on
that we drive our souls crazy and they're just now word
expression know that cultural said
