Welcome to this weeks DOTW

I wanted to bring up the topic of the Size Zero Figure
& how its all "IN" to be size zero and that if your not, your considered 'fat'


(this isnt exactly size zero...more like malnourished models)

is that the figure/size that is required to be a model?
its like if your over a size two your a plus sized model
and the size two is like the maximum...



I remember an interview with Hema Malini and she was asked what she thinks about the size zero, and she said it wasnt important at all! As long as the actress has a flat stomach she was perfect :)


Here are some questions that everyone can answer and tell us what they think about this topic/issue.


1. Is it necessary to be a size zero?


2. Is being over a size 2 make anyone plus-sized?


3. What do you think about celebs trying to get to the 'perfect size zero'


4. Why do you think skinny girls are considered/wanted to make better models?

& add any other comments you want to share :)


LOVE,
FnB Dev. Team

1. Is it necessary to be a size zero? No I don't think it is. If people want to they can. Some people feel uncomfortable the way they are but its deffo not necessary

2. Is being over a size 2 make anyone plus-sized? No.


3. What do you think about celebs trying to get to the 'perfect size zero' Maybe because they are worried. Maybe if they are not the perfect size (in their opinion which would be a zero) they're worried to be called fat and loose fans for not looking perfect?

4. Why do you think skinny girls are considered/wanted to make better models? Some people think that being 'skinny' looks good and what they're modeling will be given more importance because the model looks so "perfect." An if some one not so skinny models it they think they will be criticized on their body



I would like to add that being a size Zero is necessary no matter what kind of body you have. Being a size three does not make you any less then size zero model.

1. Is it necessary to be a size zero?
No its not as everybody else has a different body structure and I believe size zero doesnt look good on everyone.

2. Is being over a size 2 make anyone plus-sized?
No, frankly speaking I dont know when one is called plus sized but being more than size 36 is definately not plus sized in my opinion.


3. What do you think about celebs trying to get to the 'perfect size zero'

Most celebs are always trend followers. I guess they do it to be in the "race"as looks are an important part in their job.

4. Why do you think skinny girls are considered/wanted to make better models?
Long time ago, men found skinny women attractive and that was a "trend"for many years. Photographers and designers just got stucked by this idea and it has developed that way. Nowadays people are not that skinny anymore so people are opposing this. I believe that in early times women were more skinny than now.

Yes that is good though. I swear these people aren't fit to be models. To be a model you cannot be anorexic. You get more offers if you are thin but this is not even thin. These people look like they only drink water. Ughhh

1. Is it necessary to be a size zero?
Not at all. Its your choice but i feel size zero is pretty unhealthy.

2. Is being over a size 2 make anyone plus-sized?
No..people can only be known as fat when they cant see their toes when they look down..

lol..i read that sumwhere :P

3. What do you think about celebs trying to get to the 'perfect size zero'

I think just for more attention..so that they get more offers n stuff..


4. Why do you think skinny girls are considered/wanted to make better models?
Well nobody would like to see someone who does'nt have a good body..so i think thats the reason..but they do'nt have to entirely be size zero..

1. Is it necessary to be a size zero?

Not at all, in fact, I think one shouldn't. If you are too thin you lose the beauty of the face. So I'd rather not be a size zero.

2. Is being over a size 2 make anyone plus-sized?

That's seriously a joke! Over a size 2 is considered plus-sized? I sure hope not. In fact I really really don't think so. As long as you're healthy and not overweight then you're fine even if that means size 12.

3. What do you think about celebs trying to get to the 'perfect size zero'

I wouldn't take that. I mean I don't think being extra thing makes you any better. In fact Kareena before supposed size zero was much better. I love Kajol and she has never been size zero. People or at least I like the celebrities more for their talent.

4. Why do you think skinny girls are considered/wanted to make better models?

For some reason, there is this whole skinny thing that's in these days. Anyone who's not super thing is considered fat unfortunately, I would think as long as you're healthy, you're fine.
