If people want to be Size Zero , let them be happy!
As much as people are against the size zero there are many who want to be a size zero and are striving to get the size zero look.
Another factor to consider is: is it fair to punish models who are naturally very thin? After the size zero debate started in 2006 as a result of models deaths and many designers refused to hire size zero models does this mean that if you are naturally very slim you will not be allowed to get a job?
Although many fashion events were urged to ban underweight models some fashion weeks refused to ban the size zero. The British fashion Council said that rather than ban size zero they will work hard to promote healthy weights. Models will be asked to "provide medical certificates to prove they are a healthy weight." (The Telegraph, 2007) This means that in some cases you can be a size zero and a successful fashion model as long as you are healthy.
In 2011 The Telegraph reported that scientists at a London university have found that being thin can be in a perons genes, and that they cannot change their small sizes due to their thin gene. (The Telegraph, 2011)
There has even been a cream created called "Size Zero" by Rodial, claiming that this cream will give you younger looking skin, and a more toned contour. (Rodial.co.uk) Although there are no claims that the cream will turn a person into a size zero, the cream has been named size zero, giving indication that many woman are wanting to be a size zero and with claims that results can be seen in just four weeks! Who could resist?!
The Rodial size zero cream could be the answer for many looking to lose weight!
But who's decision is it? If a person wants to be slim and a Size Zero then it must be their decision.
