Size Matters | Rosie Nelson (Episode 1 of 4)

Fashion has a health problem. After a number of young women spoke out about the incredible pressure to stay super-thin, the All Party Parliamentary Group on Body Image is launching a UK inquiry into model health with a discussion on December 1st. In the run up, i-D explores issues of body image in fashion and beyond with #SizeMatters, a week of videos and features on the topic. To kick things off, size 8 model Rosie Nelson describes how being told to get “down to the bone” by an agency lead to her to starting a petition for fashion week health checks - one that would be signed by over 90,000 people.
