The company posted a picture of a vest being worn by a model backstage at Paris Fashion Week. The comments went crazy. People ignored the fact that this girl might be naturally thin and jumped on the shaming bandwagon calling her sick and slamming the company for supporting someone of her size. Reverse this and imagine what would happen if the woman was a plus sized model? There would be war for the company pulling the image!!!
Instead of making a statement about the body beautiful, Stella pulled the image and replaced it with another model wearing the same vest. So there you go. You cannot be naturally thin and naturally beautiful. You get one or the other. Not both.
I naturally do not put on weight. I am a size 10 and have been for years. I am not super skinny or super plus sized. I am a normal height and weight. However, I eat like a horse and I don't put on weight. Some people just don't. Some people like the model above, are just thin and naturally so. I understand that eating disorders are rife within the modelling community and also, Paris Fashion week is known for it, but its a little premature to start labelling every girl as sick just because she fits a certain body shape. She could be far healthier (more then likely is) at her size then I am at mine!
Over the years, I have known models who are just thin. I know of one girl who is a 6-8 in clothing size and eats like a horse. I've sat next to her at meals. She eats. She's just one of those gifted people that make you feel awful because of her perfection!!! hahahaha!!! But it is such a shame that Stella pulled the image.
It sends out the message that thin cannot be beautiful and is punishing the model for having a natural body shape.
