In 2006, two fashion models died because of anorexia. These two dramatic events raised the awareness among public about the link between anorexia and the fashion industry. We will analyze how they went through such a situation, and how governments and fashion industries react to such incidents. Anorexia is an eating disorder caused due to a distorted image of oneself, and has huge consequences on one's health. About 75% of its causes are the environment and the influence of people around them. As the criteria for beauty has become drastic nowadays, fashion brands are putting in jeopardy not only the lives of models but also the population identifying themselves through these utopist goals. To face this health problem, governments and representatives of fashion industries are trying to find solutions by signing a charter or setting campaigns about anorexia and by convincing brands to set commercials with people of "average" build, instead of skinny ones.
