Women look to the fashion industry for acceptance

feel that fashion is harmful to society, because it promotes a culture that is based solely on appearance.

The fashion industry encourages an unrealistic outlook for men and women in regards to their bodies and their looks. Women and men have gone to great extremes to mold their bodies into what the fashion world has decided is "perfect", often disregarding their health and well-being, just to look like the air-brushed, rail-thin models that the industry has deemed beautiful.
