Ali Grace Marquart, a founding partner at Marquart & Small and adjunct
professor of fashion modeling law at Fordham, is skeptical that the law
will be enforceableor effective. I dont think you can say that someone
wont have an eating disorder just because they dont have a BMI below 18,
she explained on the phone with Jezebel. And actually enforcing something
like that on a daily basis can be extremely difficult, especially given
the transient nature of the modeling industry.
.
Sara Ziff, a model and founder of The Model Alliance, has shared similar
reservations about the BMI measurement with ThinkProgress:
.
As doctors and eating disorders specialists have said, BMI is not an
accurate measure of individual health; rather, it was formulated to
measure across populations and it makes no allowance for the relative
proportions of bone, muscle and fat in the body...It is unfair and
unreasonable to ban healthy models from working just because they have a
relatively low BMI.
