Models under the age of 16 will be banned from London's Fashion Week. In addition, all models may soon have to show a health certificate before they are allowed to walk down the catwalk. These are the decisions of the Model Health Inquiry that was set up in March by the British Fashion Council to ensure models eat healthily. One major concern was how skinny models have become. Super-thin is in and experts fear that models are risking their health due to a variety of eating disorders. An unwanted side effect is that teenagers and young women in their twenties and thirties copy the looks and shape of size-zero models and put their health at risk. The inquiry is in response to the deaths of two Uruguayan models Luisel Ramos, 22, and her sister, Eliana, 18, who died last year because of poor diets.

伦敦时装周禁用16岁以下模特。此外，所有T台模特将出示健康证。今年3月，英国时装协会组建“模特健康咨询会”，这是该咨询会做出的决定，目的在于保证模特健康饮食。人们的最大担心是模特“过瘦”。这其中还包括超瘦模特，专家担心模特会因进食障碍而危害健康。许多二三十岁的年轻女性会模仿“零码”模特，健康风险增加。因饮食不良，两名乌拉圭模特于去年死亡，分别为22岁的拉莫丝，以及18岁的妹妹埃利安娜，“咨询会”随即做出该决定。

The Model Health Inquiry did not recommend barring models based on their body mass index (BMI). It said that the BMI - the ratio of weight to height - was "not an accurate method of determining health". The inquiry said models could easily make themselves vomit to try and beat the tests and get on the catwalk. Other countries have barred models with a BMI of less than 18. The World Health Organization says a BMI of 18.5 is a minimum healthy standard. The report made 14 recommendations, which include random drug tests and a "rigorous scientific study" into the extent of eating disorders within the industry. The report also said that from September 2008, models "should provide a medical certificate attesting their good health from doctors with expertise in recognizing eating disorders."

“模特健康咨询会”不建议通过“体质指数”限制模特。该协会表示称，通过“体质指数”衡量健康状况不精确，“体质指数”为体重和身高的比例。咨询会认为通过呕吐，模特可以轻松通过检测，走上T台。有些国家禁止18岁以下模特检测“体质指数”。据世卫组织表示，18.5为最低健康值。该报告推荐了14种检测方法，包括随机药物检测，对进食障碍程度进行严格的科学检测。该报道称从2008年9月起，模特应提供健康证明，并经进食障碍医生证明。
