Size Zero: How I Survived My Life as a Model
English
By (author): Victoire Dauxerre
Scouted in the street when she was 17, Victoire Dauxerres story started like a teenagers fantasy: within months she was strutting down the catwalks of New Yorks major fashion shows. But when fashion executives and photographers forced her to become ever thinner, Victoires dream became a nightmare.
In Size Zero Victoire unflinchingly exposes the ugly face of fashion and details her personal battle with anorexia nervosa and bulimia with painful honesty. A shocking indictment of the pressures our society puts on young women, her story will give strength to anyone trying to overcome or understand the increasingly prevalent problem of eating disorders.
Unique and persuasive bravely, Dauxerre names names even the big ones Sunday Times
It is rare for someone to blow the whistle so spectacularly as Dauxerre. Hopefully her book will be a force for good Evening Standard
Written with Valérie Péronnet.
