Not a vote thing but sad to see Cara looking much thinner than usual and worryingly so. Worried for her and also for the fans that look upto her. I hope we aren’t returning to the 90s where young women aspired to be stick thin. I as many others did was affected by the stick thin models and had an eating disorder that’s always lurked in the background even when recovered.

That photo in particular really horrified me

Surely that photo has been stretched out

I think she looks fine? She’s a runway model, they’re always waif life....have you seen Bella Hadid, Kendall Jenner and co? Not an ounce of fat on them!

Its a photo with one of those TikTok filters on it to make the legs look longer and thinner.

@GreenlandTheMovie that's what I thought!

Yikes. I hope she’s ok.

I’ve just had a look - I think it’s a filter, if you look at some of her other pictures , she looks slim but not as slim as the one you’re referring to - like a model (waif like but totally normal if you’re a runway model I think?) Grrr filters are so annoying sometimes!

RunningFromInsanity · 28/02/2021 23:43

She’s posted a few that have worried me.

What wait? That’s a lot of judgment for a few Instagram (I.e filtered) photo’s. I’m not sure following a model on Instagram is wise for someone who has struggled with an ED.

Aware of who she is.

Dunno about filters.

She's in lockdown too, who knows what's going on.

Agree with PP that as someone with a history of eating disorders, following women who post around looks fashion etc is not good for you.
