UK models must prove they're healthy
London Fashion Week may prove quite a disaster this year unless event planners comply with new regulations requiring models to produce health certificates proving they don't have eating disorders and ensuring girls aged 16 to 18 are chaperoned. If these provisions are not made, financial backers may pull their funding.
London's fashion industry was put under fire recently by Beat, the UK's leading eating disorders association. Many say it's important to keep the pressure on the industry -- for the models whose health depends on it and for consumers who need to know the fashion industry is not exploiting anyone as they market products.
What do you say? A step in the right direction? Or a catwalk catastrophe in the making?
Cough syrup and suppressant products that contain the unapproved hydrocodone ingredient will soon be targeted by the FDA for removal from shelves, according to the federal agency.
