Franca Sozzani, Vogue Italia editor, has recently started a campaign against pro-anorexia websites and blogs. To help reaffirm her beliefs, she has placed three plus-sized models on the cover of the June 2011 Vogue Italia. In addition, she also launched a “curvy” section on the vogue.it website.
“I did some research and found that here are countless pro-anorexia websites and blogs that not only support the disorder, but also urge young people to be competitive about their ‘body shape,’” says Sozzani.
