I will be investigating how fashion and
beauty advertising such as perfume
adverts represent size zero as a
feminine ideal and the obsession with being
size zero and does it really influence young girls/models to follow the trend of being
freakishly skinny and why do they want to follow this trend?

Media effects

Post modernism
•Postmodernism is a tendency in contemporary culture characterized by the rejection of objective truth and global cultural narrative or meta-narrative. It emphasizes the role of language, power relations, and motivations; in particular it attacks the use of sharp classifications such as male versus female, straight versus gay, white versus black, and imperial versus colonial
•Postmodernism in fashion has developed over the past twenty years with designers.
•But why the expectations of models have not changed
•“after the modernist movement”

Audience theories
•The beliefs, values and social and educational background and life experiences audiences bring to a text are seen as influencing the way they accept ,negotiate or challenge the preferred reading.

How my research topic fits into the contemporary media landscape
My research topic fits in to the contemporary media landscape as fashion is always changing however the expectations of models are not as many young girls suffer from eating disorders such as anorexia and bulimia because some feel the pressure of being skinny to look good or follow the trend of size zero as they see fashion models as role models. As Kate moss is also very controversial she influences fans and most females to follow the skinny trend.'nothing tastes as good as skinny feels'.
However it also fits into the contemporary landscape as every fashion/beauty/perfume advertisement we see today features skinny slender models which influences the audience to want to follow the skinny trend. and be like there role models or feel conscience about their weight. fashion is always contemporary, this also influences young girls to follow the skinny trend.
