Dorota in Anti Size Zero Campaign

Against Size Zero

Dorota Lopatynska-de-Slepowron, Polish fine artist, fashion designer of medieval clothes and Bollywood film actress, has decided to contest in Divinity Model Competition 2007. It is a competition that does not discriminate models against age, height or size and it promotes qualities more than looks. The organizers want to draw attention to non-zero sizes that also can be proud fashion icons. Out of 15000 candidates, only 100 have been selected for the semi-finals.
Dorota Lopatynska de Slepowron says "I have decided to take part in the Face of Divinity because it gives equal chance to all candidates irrespective of age or height. Moreover, they can have "normal" body statistics."
Her participation is a symbolic protest against the harmful practice of young girls starving and doing everything in order to achieve the desired Size Zero looks like popular actresses or singers. Her daughter Marta - model and finalist of many beauty pageants in the UK, is actively supporting her.

What Models of Diversity want is changes and accepting normal size Real Woman from every ethnicity. What we see in Arts is Real Woman with curves, not anoroxic, unhealthy woman not representing Real Woman. We want women from different ages, and sizes on catwalk because real women are curvy.
Dorota Lopatynska de Slepowron is a Beauty Pageant Queen. She is Mrs Commonwealth England Environment 2008 and Poland Environment Queen of Friends of the Commonwealth 2007.
Along with Models of Diversity, Dorota campaigned for Anti-Size Zero at London Fashion Week at Kensington, London on 21 February 2009.
Last year at Miss Commonwealth, her daughter Marta campaigned for Anti-Size Zero at Westminster near the Parliament.

UNNATURALSIZEZERO.COM is a community initiative of Miss Commonwealth dedicated to the protection of young women's health and lives against the demands of fashion catwalk promoters for underweight models. Miss Commonwealth successfully launched a campaign against catwalk promotion of underweight models at the unnatural size zero demonstration in Westminster on 18 May 2007. Miss Commonwealth queens delivered to the British Prime Minister a petition asking for legislation against the promotion of underweight models, and led a public lobby of Members of Parliament to support the petition. This campaign was aired on BBC Television, and the health recommendations of the petition were adopted by the British Fashion Council who owns and organises the London Fashion Week.
