Business with Heartâš -The Podcast about Stories, Strategiesâšand Mindset Skills
[Vintage Vogue Cover, April 1950]
Here’s one reason more why you should support the saint of fashion magazines; Vogue is making a statement about its own models: too thin is no longer in so they will be ambassadors for the message of healthy body image. I read this awesome news from lovely Pupulandia blog and I couldn’t resist starting to burrow the news even more.
The Vogue announcement included the following six-point pact.
â1. We will not knowingly work with models under the age of 16 or who appear to have an eating disorder. We will work with models who, in our view, are healthy and help to promote a healthy body image.
â2. We will ask agents not to knowingly send us underage girls and casting directors to check IDs when casting shoots, shows and campaigns.
â3. We will help to structure mentoring programs where more mature models are able to give advice and guidance to younger girls, and we will help to raise industry-wide awareness through education, as has been integral to the Council of Fashion Designers of America Health Initiative.
â4. We will encourage producers to create healthy backstage working conditions, including healthy food options and a respect for privacy. We will encourage casting agents not to keep models unreasonably late.
â5. We encourage designers to consider the consequences of unrealistically small sample sizes of their clothing, which limits the range of women who can be photographed in their clothes, and encourages the use of extremely thin models.
â6. We will be ambassadors for the message of healthy body image.â
.It remains to be seen what exactly Vogue editors considers as a healthy but I’m hopeful because this kind of thing really gives hope to start dreaming even bigger about new, healthier, body image -even in the fashion world. Thin is no longer in -HIP HIP HOORAY!
JÀlleen kerran yksi syy etsiÀ kÀsiinsÀ tÀmÀ legendaarinen muotilehtien pyhimys, kun hamuaa luettavaa lehtihyllyiltÀ; Vogue nimittÀin laittaa liiallisen laihuuden boikottihin ja nÀin ollen ryhtyy sanoista tekoihin terveemmÀn kehonkuvan puolesta. Ilouutinen tuli alustavasti bongattua ihastuttavan Jennin blogista tÀnÀ aamuna ja pakkohan sitÀ oli sitten alkaa kaivelamahan lisÀÀkin tietoa asiasta -niin teitÀ kuin itseÀnikin varten.
TÀytyy kyllÀ myöntÀÀ, ettÀ oon melkoisen ÀimÀn kÀkenÀ tuon uutisen seurauksena sillÀ vaikka tÀstÀ -siitÀ, ettÀ muotimaailmakin alkaisi hiljakseen herÀilemÀÀn terveempÀÀn suuntaan- on tullut monet kerrat unelmoituakin, niin kyllÀ se melko toivottamalta on vaikuttanut. Toivottomalta etenkin siksi, ettÀ enemmistö muotimaailmalaisista on korkeintaan kohauttanut olkiaan sekÀ vannonut syyttömyyttÀÀn monien vuosienkin saatossa mm. hengenvaarallisesta aliravitsemustilasta johtuneille mallien kuolematapauksille, suunnittelijoiden epÀterveellisen pienille mallikappaleille sekÀ vallitsevalle vartaloihanteelle, joka on terveellisyyden mittakaavasssa tÀysin utopistinen mutta asia, jota liian moni pÀÀtyy paineiden sanelemana tavoittelemaan asettaen terveytensÀ vaakalaudalle. Huolimatta siitÀkin faktasta, ettÀ on olemassa tutkittua tietoa mm. median vaikutuksesta ulkonÀköpaineisiin ja sitÀ kautta syömishÀiriöidenkin leviÀmiseen -mediavaikuttimet kun luovat ihmisille pakottavan tarpeen sopia vallitsevaan vartaloihanteeseen.
On siis nĂ€yttĂ€nyt olevan kaikille muille paitsi ilmeisesti itse muotimaailmalaisille jo pĂ€ivĂ€n selvÀÀ se, ettĂ€ jotain pitĂ€isi tehdĂ€ -etenkin heidĂ€n, jotka sitĂ€ epĂ€realistista vartaloihannettakin kylvevĂ€t. Siksi onkin ÀÀrimmĂ€isen hienoa, ettĂ€ Vogue ottaa sen ensimmĂ€isen askeleen -unohtamatta tietenkÀÀn Israelia, josta tuli maaliskuussa maailman ensimmĂ€inen maa, jossa alipainoisten mallien kĂ€yttĂ€minen mainoksissa on lailla kielletty sekĂ€ joillakin catwalkeilla vallitsevaa menettelyĂ€ tietyn painoindeksin alapuolelle jÀÀvien mallien boikotoimisesta – ja toivottavasti muutkin seuraavat perĂ€ssĂ€ mallikansalaisten tavoin! Welcomit terveydelle ja byebyet laihuudelle -HIP HIP HURRAA!

About the Blogger
A 31-years-old serial entrepreneur, hopeless life-romantic and three-time cancer survivor. I'm living in Finland, drinking too much green tea and enjoying life to the fullest with my best friend aka Hubby and our miraculous fifth-grader.
I'm a marketing nerd and an university dropout turned into a successful serialpreneur with my nearly 17 years of experience (yep, don't let my age fool you!). My greatest passion and expertise in life&biz is to turn impossible situations into possible, empower dreamers&doers, like you, to love the life they live and turn your passion into a paycheck -(without it taking over their life.)
Before we met, I felt like âOh, Iâll do this and that when Iâve got time.â But after we met, Iâve got so much ideas from you and Iâve been coming back to your website and to your Instagram so many times. I am thankful our paths have crossed and I canât wait our next meeting. â€ïžâ
"Mira, you made me speechless -in a good way. I feel like youâre the flow, you buust me up and take me forward.
CAMILLA - reader since day 1, TWENTY-SOMETHING
And then suddenly you come along and I notice how I think to myself, "Hey Camilla, you're never alone with your feelings and thoughts. â€ïž"
"Mira, I just love how you share your vulnerability here on social media. Because, to be honest, sometimes I notice how I'm dwelling on that feeling like I'm all alone.
Your crisp and clear advices really help me to keep going forward. I felt like giving up, but with your practical advices I have succeed in doing my businesses's websites in just a ONE week. Launching my website is all I've got left to do. I strongly recommend Mira's services as a start-up entrepreneur.
"Mira, your business coaching call was very useful. It clarified my services and I got new perspectives on which way to go from now on.
camilla - reader since day 1, twenty-something
Then you came to my mind and I think to myself what would Mira say. I imagined you would say something like "Just breathe, my friend. And start working that love towards your lovely self." Then I calmed down. And NOW you've published this gorgeous photo of you in jeans and bras with thoughts about self-love. đđ I'm not sure is there some kind of power above us today that sends my thoughts forward or what -I really don't know. But I felt like telling you. Mira, you are lovely. â€ïžâ
"For real Mira, when I saw your newest post on my IG feed, my eyes misted over. Just couple hours earlier I was so anxious that I felt anxious enough to disappearing back to those scary bulimic times.
MARI - chronic illness warrior, 32 YEARS OLD
Thank you so much for that! It's amazing how our dreams help us making it through tough times. đđœ"
"Mira, I read your story frequently. Because you and your story inspire me to keep doing my thing. đ„°
Elisa Kallokoski - BURLESQUE ARTIST
Basically, practical help and advices. A roadmap where to start and which steps to follow in order to get forward. My own thoughts were (and from time to time still are) a pretty buzzy, so I needed someone to get the hang of my thoughts. And Mira, you really did that. Our coaching call take of smoothly and vigorous, without feeling too cold. I felt like Mira really wanted to help precisely me. Chatting with Mira felt so natural that I got a brand new information, that doesn't read in any business guides, without even noticing it.
"I strongly recommend Mira's services -even in that point where you wonder do you even have what it takes to be an entrepreneur. I needed someone who would kick my ass and advices that I wouldn't get any other trainings.
