      I agree that it has become a marketing strategy to show the other perspective. As consumers or clients, we can never be sure about their opinions. That s why is marketing, saddly. The real people who shoul speak up are the one directly involved in this world. But we as byuers can also influence the way things go. Do we want to see just nice clothes or do we also what to see the real stories of the people behind them?

      It bothered me in the sense of, if they knew these types of things happen, why didn’t you say something beforehand? All it takes is to pull the person to the side and say hey, by the way this person is known for doing this and that so just make sure you’re never alone with them, and if you find yourself in an uncomfortable situation, try to get out of it. And then express that you’re someone they could come to. It’s so easy and only takes a couple of seconds

      Agencies don't care about models. If they did, they wouldn't allow them to destroy their bodies with those unhealthy and destructive diets. They just want to make money. I once read that some models were left waiting for hours in the dark at a casting and, if I'm not wrong, some of them had physical problems for that. This is a shame. These girls and boys are human beings, not toys.

      @@asmrm1572 A lot of women are born skinny and beautiful, yes. And I'm not about to shame those skinny girl because I know what it's like to be told I need to eat a cheeseburger.
      But there are also a lot of women who abuse their bodies in order to meet the standards of the industry. And the industry is harsh. If you're even an inch over what they find ideal around the waist, they will tell you you look fat or you need to lose weight. In which case, that is no longer natural, it is torturing your body into doing something that isn't entirely natural for it.
      Also, photoshop often contorts skinny girls to look even thinner than they already are and changes their legs and arms to look thinner. That's where the "unrealistic" part comes in. There is nothing realistic about those. I'm sure she wasn't calling the girls unrealistic. It's the industry who often has unrealistic standards.

So, for Vogue to be Cool in my mind, they would have to come out with a mission statement detailing how they are going to protect young women and prevent the culture of abuse & degradation.

      8352731 I think you need to educate yourself before commenting because as of last year and due to the #MeToo movement, Vogue has made a statement reminding the protocols of how women should be treated during photoshoots to the point where they've made a rule that minors must always be accompanied by their guardian and no other staff outside those involved in the photoshoot is allowed to be in the rooms. Of course, say what you will about "oh that should've been enforced earlier" etc but let's be honest, it's still good change and at least progress has been made

Male teachers - my kids called one quarter pockets because his pants were so tight the students could get a good look at his junk. They were in middle school. Male classmates in teacher education school... showing nude women in paintings yammering away about form and gesture. Barf. This kind of male behavior is everywhere. Not all men act like this, but the ones who do are never called out - then and there. Many women students are uncomfortable but they never give push back then and there. They talk about it privately after class, after they are abused or raped. Wake up young women, our silence allows this BS to continue.

    In NYC they have these model apartments all over the West Village and Meatpacking district... if anyone else charged $8000 for a 2 bedroom with 6 plus people in there, they would be so charged with a crime Of course the elite can do whatever they want.

    This video was an eye opener. All of these models had their own story to tell about what is was like for them to be treated in an uncomfortable way. All of you models are strong for telling your story while doing your job.

    I remember that vogue cover! I obsessed over it as a young teenager. It's so wild to see Gemma and Vlada and all these women all grown up, talking about how they really feel about the industry.

    It's sad & unfortunate that there're a lot of young models under age surrounded
    w a lot of older sharks who sees no boundaries & dignity & most of all respect for the models spc if they're underaged. Just think of them if they're
    your children do you want any old sharks will do the same to your own children?? Think & have some decency
    & guilt. 😢

      Happychicx These predators give respect and dignity to people who have as much power as they have. These young girls are NOTHING to them. They are objects, not human with dignity.

    As dark as this is I really think it’s important that these models are explaining some of the horrible ways their treated or exploited, to warn other girls.
    I would personally love an entire documentary behind Gemma Wards story since she was once an “it girl”, left the industry and then returned. A sort of rise & fall story finishing off with her return and what appears to be her new found sense of self.
