Question the Motives of the Fashion Industry!

Remember that the main objective of the fashion, cosmetic, diet, fitness, and plastic surgery industries is to MAKE MONEY, not to make you the best person you can possibly be. The ultra thin ideal is working for them. But is it working for you?

Here are some people you can write to. NOTE that in this alphabetical listing, we have included both "positive" and "negative" companies. It's important to let the positive companies know that they are doing a good job also. For examples of positive images, please see our Gallery of Winners.
