I realize how important it is for fashionistas to believe the ideal woman looks like an adolescent boy, but that's not how the rest of the world views it."<br /><br />Again, the fashion industry is not only made up of models or well-connectted interns with eating issues. I think too many people base their views on fashion from movies like Devil Wears Prada. Most fashion industry professionals do not have EDs, I can only speak from personal experience working in the industry for 3 years before leaving it all together. I studied fashion design at RISD, then worked for several houses in technical positions like pattern cutter and assistant designer. We were the backbone of the industry and often put in 10-12 hours days for low salaries. Most of us made somewhere between 50-70K starting out, certainly not enough to live the high life in NYC. <br /><br />The ones who are seen at glamorous parties and who are seen by public as fashionistas, those girls are usually well-connected socialites who intern for magazines or fashion houses or who dabble as stylists. They couldn't cut and sew a dress if their lives depended on it. They are the ditzy, ED-obssessed stereotypes come to life, but they are not representative of the entire fashion industry.<br /><br />I finally got out of the fashion industry because I was fed up with the long hours, dealing with bullshit politics, and plus I no longer loved it. The final straw was for me when I was helping backstage at a fashion show and watched this druggie, emaciated model inject herself between her toes with heroin. I'd seen shit like that and worse before but right then and there I told myself no more.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6387050766907671577.post-81710783916699019042011-04-06T09:40:17.074-07:002011-04-06T09:40:17.074-07:00When Vera was shown on screen at RISE in a sleevel...When Vera was shown on screen at RISE in a sleeveless drive (sideways, bones popping out), the theaters GASPED around the country. I don't think THAT runs in families. Vera didn't ALWAYS look this thin either.

These women are hardcore. It's part of their job description, plus Vera prolly doesn't give a fuck what we think of her weight. Gotta give her props for staying a skinny bitch even at age 60, I mean that takes dedication, amirite?
