Fashion models are known for a lot of things, but "delicious meals" doesn't usually make the list. However, Armani Exchange model Cesar Casier has a passion for cooking and wants to change this perception, so he created a cookbook called Model Kitchen.
Model Kitchen is a collection of Casier's and his model friends' favorite recipes. Karlie Kloss, Lily Donaldson, Milla Jovovich and Lindsey Wixson are just some of the glamorous contributors, and the recipes include Jovovich's baked salmon and asparagus and Wixson's chocolate chip cookies. Sounds pretty good to me.
The cookbook is on sale in Belgium, and Casier is currently shopping it around to NYC publishers, so expect to see it in the States sometime next year. What do you think, though? Are you interested in eating like a model?

That's nasty
I want to look like that:
And: Cesar who?
models dont eat. when they get hungry, they have a cigarette
Oxymoron much?
Also, I'm interested in the high fashion and modelling industry a lot, and Cesar has always been a great model. I adored his Vogue Paris spread with Lara Stone.
And to people saying models do not eat: they do (do you even know the NAME of the girl you are criticising for being thin?). Only they don't eat in excess and eat quality food, not the processed crap all the haters do. Saying that they are mentally ill is just rude to the ED victims and the models.
Need proof?

This stick figures may be good for posing as clothes racks but they aren't anything a real person shouldn't be trying to model clothes for women. Guys are looking for curves else they would be dating their buds.
claim I have ever heard. These models are thin to the point of being unhealthy.
It has nothing to do with evolution, but more to do with a elitist group of high
fashion dictators declaring how Women of the World should look.
I have traveled to every corner of this globe and the only place where I found
women naturally resembling these models was in areas of famine and warfare.
It is not natural to starve to the point loss of muscle as well as bone density due
to making a conscious decision. That is not evolution, it is mental slavery.
Also, you may note many voluptuous women are sports figures.
Strong men have always admired a strong women not twig-types.
The fact that models are thin makes them book the ad campaigns, runway work and editorials in magazines, which makes them sell the products. And considering that the biggest fashion company LVMH's total profit last year was €3.065 billion, they're doing their job well.
They are not thin because their job is attracting men (that's what the pornography industry *yuck* is for...). They are thin because their jobs is to persuade a specific costumer (you know... the ones who can afford $5000 dresses) to buy luxury products. And looking at the revenue high fashion companies are making, they are doing a damn good job. If the targeted costumer WANTED to see voluptuous women persuading them to buy clothes, it would change in order for companies to make more money. But that's not the case.
That is why skinny and tall, not normal and short, women rule the industry.
Look at the clothing profit at Wal-Mart, Sears, Penny's, or any Department store and they crush the high-fashion industry. This fantasy world is only playing to the elite and foolish women who believe in this is the standard any fool finds interesting other than a few anorexic fashionistas. In America alone the revived market for voluptuous women garnered $25B/yr or 1/4 or the market.
Also, anyone paying $5000 for a dress is a fool (just ask my wife ~ she would kill me). I ran a successful business for years and expanding it to many sites. These idiots who ran around thinking clothes made the man or woman were as empty as their suits. I crushed them in seconds in negotiations and they looked like fools on the manufacturing floor trying to protect their investment in clothing. I could buy them 10 times over and they were playing some role they read about in GQ or other silly fashion magazine ~ please.
But what I'm saying is that the fashion industry is doing well selling their overpriced luxury goods thanks to the advertisment with thin women. Obviously these brands won't sell as much as cheaper mass market brands, but its prestige and interest of the public (there are many people who follow the fashion industry as some follow sports or TV shows) keep it alive. My original point was that the models are thin because that is what sells, and you just rambled about comparisons with mass market brands which is off topic.
Mass Market is where the topic is centered because that is where most of the people on this discussion board live. It is much better to channel the money spent on a fashion model into additional workers so they will have an income. More reasonable to cycle the $5000 spent on a dress into catering for a charity benefit for a homeless shelter or even a bonus to get it back into circulation.
Besides, "thin is in" started failing in 2006 and according to reports in Aug 2012 “I have to airbrush clients’ to make them appear bigger and more womanly before I submit photographs,”**. So maybe these ladies should just save the Photographer the trouble and eat a little bit.

Your comment was really rude. Eating disorders are not a joke. They freaking kill people.
