French Fashion Industry Signs Anorexia Charter
Members of the French fashion industry have signed a government-backed charter aimed at fighting anorexia. The charter asked participants to work toward presenting diverse body images and not publicizing images that promote extreme thinness.
"The nonbinding charter was signed by groups including the French Couture Federation, the French Federation for Women's Pret-a-Porter and the Union of Modeling Agencies, as well as some representatives of advertising and media."France has had some modeling guidelines since the 1980s, including mandatory medical visits for models under 16 years old.
