    The editors of all 19 editions of Vogue around the world have pledged to use only healthy models no younger than 16 on their editorial pages in an attempt to shift the fashion industry's approach to body image.

    Anna Wintour, editor of Vogue's flagship US edition, and Emmanuelle Alt of Paris Vogue - which caused an uproar in 2010 with a photo spread featuring a 10-year-old girl - are among those who agreed to the pact.

    "Vogue believes that good health is beautiful," said Jonathan Newhouse, chairman of Conde Nast International and a scion of the New York publishing family that privately owns the world's most influential fashion title.

    "Vogue editors around the world want the magazines to reflect their commitment to the health of the models who appear on the pages and the wellbeing of their readers," he added.

    In a six-point pact to appear in their respective June issues, the editors pledge to not to knowingly work with models under the age of 16 or with those "who appear to have an eating disorder".

    Finally, fewer times that I feel pity when I see an advertisment. 
    So once again I'm left with the classic Irish man's dilemma, do I eat the potato or do I let it ferment so I can drink it later?
