3. Hard worker
Being a very hard worker and extremely devoted to anything that she did, she went out and lost the 22 pounds she needed to lose to fit into a size 32. The shocking part, is to lose all the weight, she ate only 3 apples a day and drank sparkling water. Now that is dedication! During the week, at least once she will reward herself with “Cheat” food, being a small piece of chicken or fish. This diet is seen as successful because it has hardly any sustenance for your body to survive long on.

6. Weird World
Victoire happened to find herself in the biggest contradiction currently in the world. This girl being extremely thin to fit into the outfits and show off her body actually became a canvas to photo editing. It doesn’t matter how wafer thin she is; the photos would be manipulated to add extra weight where it was seen fit. She says, “They added weight to my thighs and cheeks. The girls working there today will probably say I’m lying. They can’t say anything if they want to continue.” One terrible trick models use, is it to eat snacks in front of journalists to give the impression that they do in fact eat. But of course, they would then pay a visit to the toilet to return what they ate to the outside world known as the toilet.

7. Misery
After only 8 months of being a very successful model, this poor girl had completely lost herself which makes her entry into adulthood a sad story. Soon she became bulimic, depressed and distressed and of course, nobody understood what she was going through. “Nobody understood. Everybody was telling me, ‘You have a dream life,’ but I’d never been so miserable,” she says. Her life was clearly not as glamourous as everything thinks it to be.

8. A new life
Now at the age of 23, she published her own book with all the juicy details of her career as a model that she quit to live a better life. Her book is called, “Never Skinny Enough. Diary of a Top Model.” Which has all the details of top designers and how horribly they treated all the models as if they weren’t human and just a thing to put the clothes on. She says, “Karl Lagerfeld says, ‘a Chanel suit doesn’t fit a woman with breasts.’ But women have breasts by definition. Why doesn’t he just make a suit that fits women?!?”

9This amazing story has made quite an impact on the world, going to lengths such as that of a law being made because of her story that forbids models from working if they are too skinny and weak.

Since she has left that life behind, she is now at a healthy weight wearing a size 6 which she hopes to show off on a theatrical stage one day.

10. A great story

This abusive industry needs to be exposed more for more changes to take place. So share this story with everyone you know, who knows, it might change the world by just by spreading awareness.
