Model Inga Radziejewski was rejected for being ‘too fat’, despite being a size 00
February 1st, 2010 - 8:46 pm ICT by Aishwarya Bhatt ( Leave a comment )London, Feb 1 (THAINDIAN NEWS) Former catwalk model Inga Radziejewski weighed just 7 stone, had measurements of 27in chest, 21in waist and 27.5in hips, and was a size 00, but all the same she was rejected at a modeling audition, because she was said to be ‘too fat’. Her hip bones were protruding out, her ribs were sticking out, and she had stick-like arms, yet she was told that she is ‘too fat’. And the former model stands tall at 5ft and 11 inches. She was definitely anorexic, but when she went for fittings at Christian Dior, she says that the clothes were so small, that even she struggled to sneak into them. She was dangerously underweight at that time too, and at size 00, she never thought that there was anything wrong with her.
Now she is a healthy size 12, after her treatment, and has obviously bidden goodbye to the modeling world. Rather she is now working in the mainstream fashion industry. And now she is horrified by the lifestyle, that she had in her size 00 days. Since she weighed just 7 stone, she was suffering from anorexia and was just on the verge of having organ failure too. Still, one casting director for a German TV channel said that, she had a too-big butt, which motivated Inga all the more to stay skinny, and lose more weight.
She says: “I heard one girl say that she started throwing up her food three days before a casting and another said she was taking epilepsy medication to help her concentrate because she was so delirious from hunger. When I looked shocked all the other girls said they did it too.”
