Oh, you didn’t know?

The must-have fashion week accessory seems to be the charity tee. Last season, Vogue staffers were hawking T-shirts for a worthy cause (7th on Sale). At this year’s Copenhagen fashion week—which kicks off today; watch this space for coverage—the Danes are using the same ploy to raise money to fight eating disorders. The shirts, which have slogans such as “Eating Is the New Black,” were designed by Klaus Samsøe & e-types. May Andersen and Oliver Bjerrehuus are featured in the accompanying campaign, which grew out of the Ethical Charter to protect Danish models that was established last year. Talk about fine Daning.

You know, this is probably going to piss people off. I don’t really care because this is my opinion. In the fashion industry it’s a known that models may or may not eat. Whatever, they have to be thin. I’m not saying that I support eating disorders, I am saying that it’s anyones personal choice to eat or not to eat. There are tons of models that do eat & look healthy. There are some models who do look healthy who do not get booked for certain designers. There are designers who specifically look for an unhealthy looking model. Yes, the one that looks like she smoked 2 packs of cigarettes a day & hoovers through 2+ grams of white a night. I know in Milan there is a weight limit. Yes, a weight limit for models to meet before they can hit the runway. At any rate, what I’m saying is who fucking cares!? Charity, no charity. Model or not. We as human beings have the right to do whatever the fuck we want to ourselves. You don’t want to eat? Fine, that means you won’t be the MFs at
Guu who get the last order of Snow King Crab. Maybe I’m a little whatevs cause I’ve gained some major weight lately. But guess what? I won’t make me quit eating. It will just make me work out harder. Me giving up food is like an anorexic giving up on an empty stomach.
