Paris BANS thin models.

(Natasha Poly from V Magazine)

The National Assembly in France passed a bill that would imprison someone for up to 3 years and up to $70,000 to anyone who "incited excessive thinness." The bill that was passed on Tuesday hopes to stop pro-annorexia in magazines, websites and blogs. "However, it's unclear how the law would apply to ads, magazine spreads, and runway shows, nor has it been defined what "excessive thinness" means — which is why the fashion industry thinks none of this will really apply to them no matter what," says NY Magazine. To make it become a law it has to pass to the Senate.

This bill is too vague and it will probably run into a lot of problems, but at least they are trying to do something about it.
