Size Zero is a great book by author Victoire Dauxerre.
A memoir about a brief career as a top model – and a brutally honest account of what goes on behind the scenes in a fascinating, self-contained industry.

Guided on the streets when she was 17, Victoire Dauxerre’s story began as a teenage dream: within a few months, she was on the catwalks of major New York fashion shows. and be part of the most curated group of supermodels in the world.

But when fashion executives and photographers began to pressure her about her weight, forcing her to be thinner than ever, Victoire’s illusion took a toll. Now food was her enemy, and soon, living on only three apples a day and too much Diet Coke, Victoire became anorexic.

An unflinching and painful exposure to the evil side of fashion, her testimony is a shocking example of how the mechanisms of anorexia and bulimia in our culture can push A young woman commits suicide.

The story of a survivor fighting a deadly disease and body image shows us how to embrace life courageously.

As a woman who loves fashion and is interested in the modeling world, I found this book very interesting. It’s a candid look at the less glamorous side of modeling and how these young models grapple with the body and weight requirements imposed on couture models. It delves into the psychological damage that extreme diets can cause. I recommend it.

After reading this, be sure that a parent will not allow their daughter to enter this industry. Victoire tells her story gracefully and gently. She has her moments of charm but the daily reality is always harsh with these beautiful young ladies. She was lucky enough to get out when she did. If you or someone you know wants to be a model, this is a must-read!
