    That's awesome that they won't reshape the models anymore. You can definitely see a difference.

    Great news! That's what we need to see, besides the non-edited model looks much better anyway!
    I wonder how long it'll take England to do this...

    This is fantastic! I think she looks just as pretty in the original picture. Our daughters need this to help promote better self-esteem and self-image.

    Cool. The model is already slender to a point that's unattainable for most mortals. The retouched photo is disturbingly thin.

    this is wonderful news!! I want my daughters to see reality as they grow......maybe young girls will start to have more realistic visions of what people are suppose to look like! This will be great for society!!!!

    I love this and wish it was a law! It should be a type of false advertisement to reshape the models, lol.

    Thanks for posting this! It was eye opening to me....women (including myself) get so caught up in what we think we should look like instead of what a healthy women looks like. We end up competing with images that are unattainable and a complete lie. These sort of deceptive practices lead directly to eating disorders, very sad! I only hope other retailers, magazines and the fasion world follows suit very soon.

    Wow they actually retouched the attractive curves she had and took them out, they actually did a great job of making her look worse by retouching the photo, what genius decided that was a good idea? I am glad they don't retouch because I seriously prefer the unretouched photo.
