Wafe: Fashion Diplomacy

Please wait to see Mary-Kate Olsen at the end. SO TRUE!! Loool !!

Eating disorders and image obsession has been going on for quite some time, but it is only recently that I have been seeing such a hype regarding this issue. Since Spring Fashion Week, government officials accross Europe have started to take action against this fatal obsession. Even notorious fashion queen and Vogue Editor in Chief, Anna Wintour (under pressure) has decided to step forward and put a stop to this internally within the fashion industry.

UPDATE: Italian designers sign code with the government requiring models to present medical clearance of eating disorders.

Can I please say how excited I am that my world of fashion and politics have decided to join forces. Although it is under unfortunate circumstances, I hope to see more positive collaboration in the future ;)
