Vogue Editor-In-Chief Anna Wintour and designer Michael Kors were on the list of speakers at the 13th Annual Public Forum presented by the Harris Center at Massachusetts General Hospital held at the Harvard Business School.  Entitled “Health Matters: Weight and Wellness in the World of Fashion,” the forum addressed the actions being taken to reduce weight issues and eating disorders in models.  Wintour specifically brought up the positive strides the industry has been making to ensure models’ health which include setting minimum age requirements, banning booze and tobacco backstage during fashion shows and reducing hours for younger models.  Some talking points include “We are all responsible for the models’ health,” she declared in her speech. And Michael Kors further addressed the age issue in models by promising not to use models under the age of 16 in his own shows.  Another speaker included Russian supermodel Natalia Vodianova who spoke up as a model herself and dealing with anorexia, making the very sad and honest statement: “It is very hard to have a feeling of stability. Anorexia is sometimes the only form of control these girls have.“ However, the forum ended on a positive and hopeful note as Vodianova stated,
“It’s in fashion now to be healthy.”

Milan Fashion Week got off to a rocky start with many Italian protestors dressing up as famed American Vogue Editor-In-Chief Anna Wintour, after she had scheduling conflicts and allegedly had fashion week changed to accommodate her busy schedule.  Many of the protestors gathered outside the fashion week runways dressed with blonde wigs, large circular sunglasses, t-shirts that read ” Three Days Only  ” and held posters as a sign of their detest for Wintour.  Although it was a valiant effort on their part, the ice cold Wintour didn’t even seem to flinch when seeing the troves of protestors mocking her.  Regardless of the hubbub surrounding Milan Fashion Week, it still went on with some designers showing some beautiful garments, while others showed some simply bad taste and some others showing some just bizarre collections.  Take a look at some of the Beautiful, the Bad, and the Bizarre from Milan.
