This Toronto transit shelter ad is part of a campaign, developed for the National Eating Disorder Information Centre (NEDIC) by Toronto-based Zulu Alpha Kilo, taking marketers and fashion industry leaders to task for casting thin women in their ads or fashion spreads. The skinny is that research indicates even brief exposure to such images negatively affects body image in girls and women, making them more susceptible to eating disorders. This execution encourages women to shed their weight problem by dumping their beauty magazines through a slot in the poster. Facetious greeting cards to beauty brands and fashion editors are another component of the gloves-definitely-off campaign.
