Montreal Fashion Week: No skinny girls, no under-16!

The organizers of next week's Montreal Fashion Week have announced that they're banning models showing signs of anorexia and models younger than 16 on their catwalk.

This is great news, but I hope this is only the first step. I'm still hoping that one day, organizers of Fashion Weeks will push for more diversity on the catwalk, encouraging designers to include larger models too. Obviously, the fashion world isn't made for the ordinary human being (look at how tall models are compared to the average person...), but not everyone is a size 0 either.
