It makes young people (especially girls) want to be like the models they are showing in the magazines and lots of them are loosing their lives because they want to be skinny and ''beautiful'' like them. This should be stopped by the companies bringing in average sized models.

Re: What are the Disadvantages of Fashion?
hello Disadvantages: Among girls and young women, ridiculing each other's outfits and appearances can be a form of bullying. The appearances of the homeless can keep people from offering them jobs. Fashion models tend to be skinny to the extent that it is extremely unhealthy. People may feel uncomfortable physically becayse of peer pressure not to wear a "dorky" coat or to wear uncomortable shoes. Fashion can consume money and resources that could be put to uses that help society more. Older children can feel pressured to grow up too fast. 10-year-old girls may want to shave their legs or wear bras. People may support stores that use sweatshop labor because their priority is finding clothes that are "cute &cheap" or they think that the clothes from fair-trade stores are "hippie clothes." This is not true. Thegreenloop.com and fairiesdance.com ave some really cute clothes that are coop-america (and fashionista) approved. Macy's and H&M have pretty good (although not perfect) track records as to how they treat workers. Thanks

Re: What are the Disadvantages of Fashion?
Young girls are now taking it into their heads to look like anorexic models that we so often see in magazines. I don't think fashion is a disadvantage, it's the way the younger generation is perceiving it.
