Yet I still see ads asking for £1 a month for kids in Africa double standards really

She looks normal?
I feel like we’re going too much in the other direction now to the point where we’re discriminating again, but this time against smaller women. This model, on the low end of a healthy weight is not acceptable, but a model on the other end of the scale, way above a healthy weight is seen as a good thing. Can we not just have a mix of sizes so that everyone is represented, and as long as it’s a healthy mix rather than just one body type the entire campaign, it’s fine? I thought that was the ultimate goal…

Sounds like body shaming. They don’t think she meets their standard of beauty well enough to be a model?

Zara will delete these adverts, then pump out 10 more until, they’re, yet again, slapped on the wrist.
Pointless exercise unless Advertising Standards are given ‘actual’ powers.

I wonder if this reaction is because the model has to be pretty slender to look that slim on camera?
I’ve been at lots of different weights but at my lowest I Iooked like I was healthy when in real life I looked visibly sick. Part of what fed into my illness was the fact I always looked “fat” in photos
