Isabelle Caro, a French actress and model, emaciated image is an Italian campaign shock died at the age of 28.

Caro said later interviews, only it weighs approximately 59 pounds when the photos were taken in 2007 by the Italian photographer Oliviero Toscani.

Acquired campaign Caro widespread in the media in the countries of Europe and United States, attention and it is often on her anorexia, efforts to recover and the threat of disordered eating on the fashion industry.

Caro, who allegedly beaten with anorexia since the age of 13, wrote a book published in France, in 2008, entitled "The Little Girl" who did not want to get FAT.

The campaign featuring a Caro skeleton not without controversy, however, many groups support anorexia stating that attention does not render service to those who suffer. Caro image appeared on numerous sites of pro-ana (pro anorexia).

One would hope that a tragedy such as this would send shockwaves through the industry and it jar in a significant action. Despite tragedies and other campaigns shock, however, it appears that many things have changed.

The 2006 related anorexia died of the Brazilian model, efforts led to the international fashion industry to address impacts of ultra-thin models using health, but no action binding follows.

Representatives of the French fashion industry have signed a Charter of Government in 2008, promising not to encourage eating disorders and to promote healthy body images using "a variety of representations of the body", showing not "of the images of people who could help to promote a model of extreme thinness."

Industry leaders from around the world have refused to cooperate.

Writing about it made me feel really sad. Make changes to an industry steeped in a culture of bone-thin is not overnight, but it can only hope that tragic situations like this will change some minds.

What are your thoughts on the situation?
