How young is too young? According to the folks at Australia fashion week 14 is just about the age when using young models becomes a little obscene. iPapier looks at that today regarding the banning of young models at Australia fashion week. One of the primary concerns according to the folks at Australia Fashion Week is not only that it’s exploitative, it also affects older women and their own body images. So the question now becomes when is the line drawn? 14? 15? 16? 17? Australia fashion week says 18 is just about right. Some tennis stars go pro at 17, is modeling any different? The model that caused this brouhaha in case you’re wondering is 14 year old Monika Jagaciak. She’s been in Calvin Klein ads, Hermes ads, Harper’s Bazaar. Word is Dov Charney is dying to get his camera on her.
