these pics were in italy and also in france, the model is french.
in a magazine I read a letter of an ex anorexic girl saying "it's a very hard and tough image, I dont know how useful can be. as I saw it, I thought I really missed those times, then that she is wonderful."
so be careful with provocations.

Yes, anorexics have dysmorphophobia (a distorted view of how their body really is - they think they're too big while they're too thin), it's not a "campaign" like this that will solve the problem, on the contrary it might end up glorifying anorexia (in the sense that anorexia distinguishes you from others and can even make you famous as it's the case for the French girl on the ad).
