A story I heard about over the last few months was a big brand store has been caught using computerized images to model their clothes instead of real life models!! H&M a sweedish fashion chain had to admit to using photo shopped photos of their shop dummies to model their bikini's! Now, I think this is uterlly disgusting to be honest, what kind of examples is this giving to women no matter what the age? This cant be positive surely, as young women have pressure "to look good" already with stars going on diets and magazines and films airbrushing them and putting makeup on them! It's hard for young girls to grow up at school comparing herself to fellow peers (I know because I've done it!) nevermind comparing themselfs to celebraties and now computerized images because they wont belive that it's done with photoshop because they do look real!
I think that REAL women should become REAL model's, none of you're computerized software. We're talking about kids here when you think about it. Kids looking at the pictures in magazines and saying "wow I want to look like that" so they starve their self's and you all wonder why anorexia and all other weight issue illnesses are on the increase. I want to work in the media myself but god help the world of today if this is what it is doing to the "next generation's" idea of "what looks good". In conclusion I hope that the media wakes up and looks at this generation of today and does something about it.
