Size 4 is 2 Fat

Coco Rocha

The fashion scene is in the media spotlight as New York fashion week is in full swing. Model Coco Rocha is making headlines stating that she’s not in demand anymore because of her size. Rocha is a Size 4 and most of the sample pieces designers send out on the runway are size 0.  It’s the same reason Victoria Secrets’ model Doutzen Kroes said she decided not to do any other runway shows besides the Victoria Secrets fashion show.

 

Coco Rocha used to weigh 108 lbs when she just started out with modeling 6 years ago. Now 21-years-old Coco Rocha weighs a healthy 125 lbs standing 5 ft 10 inches tall. According to the Huffington Post, Coco Rocha would rather just eat a Hamburger instead of starving herself to death.

 

Rocha, who walked for Diane Von Frustenburg last Sunday and in Zac Posen’s show on Monday, is a vocal advocate for healthy body image in the fashion scene. She regularly visits schools and talks to girls and says she feels the need to tell these girls that what appears on the cover of magazines is not entirely based on the truth.
