Fab Flash: French Fashion Industry Takes Anti-Anorexia Action
Yesterday, the French fashion industry joined with the country's Health Ministry to sign a charter promoting healthy body images in magazines and on the Paris runways.
The charter outlines a series of guidelines, committing the industry to work toward "a diversity of body representations" and refrain from using "images of people, in particular youth, that could contribute to promoting a model of extreme thinness."
This action follows the recent inquiry by the British Fashion Council on the effects of airbrushing, all spurred by the anorexia-related deaths of several South American models in 2006, including Brazilian Ana Carolina Reston.
Fab Flash: British Fashion Council Takes Closer Look at Airbrushing
In the wake of the British Fashion Council's Model Health Inquiry, which resulted in models under 16 being banned from the London catwalks, the airbrushed pages of magazines are now coming into question.
The British Fashion Council (BFC) wrote to the UK's Periodical Publishers Association (PPA) in December to suggest "a voluntary code covering the use of digital manipulation [in photography]." A BFC spokeswoman said that rather than limiting magazine's use of airbrushing, they would like to see a warning that the image had been altered instead.

Good Vegan Recipes/Products?
This story was written by member notinthemood and comes from the Kitchen Goddess group in the YumSugar Community.
I have somewhat recently become totally lactose intolerant — as in, no butter, no cheese, no yogurt, and nothing dairy. I'm totally opposed to relying on drugs to allow me to eat something my body clearly doesn't want to digest, so I've been experimenting with vegan cooking.
Pumpkin Bread Is Sugar, Spice, and Everything Nice
I've had Autumn on the brain for weeks now, but it wasn't until I received an inquiry about a faithful pumpkin bread recipe that the aromatic, spiced bread crossed my mind. Yet as soon as it did, I found myself craving a loaf of it. There was only one thing to do.

While others may be lagging on the issue, the Council of Fashion Designers of America is set to walk its talk. In partnership with the Renfrew Center, a treatment center for eating disorders, the CFDA will set up health initiative booths inside Bryant Park during New York fashion week .
The stands will be scattered inside lobbies and backstage to provide information on the signs and symptoms of eating disorders along with the CFDA's recommended guidelines promoting health and beauty.
Fab Flash: London Fashion Week Says No Go to Model Health Certificate
As the model health issue turns, it has been announced that a model health certificate for London Fashion Week is “an unworkable solution,” according to Hilary Riva, chief executive of the British Fashion Council. What is further disappointing, “From our conversations with our international counterparts in New York, Milan and Paris it has become clear that they do not recognize the need for an international health certificate.”
The BFC already banned models under 16 from walking the London shows and requires the shows to have healthy backstage environments. Also, the BFC is developing a website that will have advice for models and aspiring models, with links to sites about eating disorders.
Fab Flash: Coco Rocha Speaks Up At The CFDA Model Health Discussion
"She wakes up in the morning, goes to the bathroom to take a shower and runs by the full-length mirror because she can't bare to look at herself naked. She only weighs 104 pounds, but all she can think is, I need to be thinner. She hurries to her first show, where she promises herself she'll eat a few grapes.
