Dr. David Herzog, an authority in eating disorders at Harvard Medical School, holds an annual public forum to address issues around eating disorders and reduce their stigma. The 2010 forum focused on eating disorders in the fashion industry. Representatives from the Council of Fashion Designers of America and designers Michael Kors and Natalie Vodianova spoke about the industry's role and their personal experiences. Kors believes early exposure in modeling can lead to body insecurity and eating disorders, while Vodianova overcame anorexia through psychotherapy. The forum aimed to educate the public and implement guidelines to prevent eating disorders.
