Modelnomics

An economic assessment of the highly controversial issue of body image within the global fashion industry, along the lines of Alfred Marshall's supply-demand model.

"Modelnomics" illustrates the tendency for models to gain value by way of salary, from marked losses in weight.

The term was first used by fashion writer Lottie Ntim, to illustrate the tradeoff between a model's self-worth and their food intake, following apparent industry aversion to model Coco Rocha's weight gain and a call on the Council of Fashion Designers of America(CFDA) to revise the model sample size.
