I'd call it progress. It's about time the 'fashion' industry stopped trying to make us all into sticks and started realizing a good many of us are curvy....and have money we'd like to spend on 'fashion that fits'.
On the other hand, there is the possibility that being banned will only make some young women want to be that thin even more.

I think it is ridiculous, fashion is not about role models; these shows are about art and clothing and style. No need to ban models, designers choose certain models for reasons,and dont specifically seek out sickly ones, bu tones that fit the samle size clothing (usually size 2-6)
Speaking from personal expierience (I am a professional model)many desiners will turn you away if you do not look healthy, dont suit or fit the clothes, dont have good presense, or just cant walk. It is silly for people to stricly ban skinny models because some teenage girls have poor self esteem. it is not the fashion industry's job to create role models; only beautiful clothing. Dont forget, the only reason models een exist is because hangers cant walk.
