size zero 零號

If we say someone is size zero. We mean he or she is very thin.
Size zero is actually an American clothing size.
To be size zero, you need to be very, very thin. Some people think that is attractive, but it is quite controversial.(具爭議的)

Because many people think that encouraging young women to think that they need to be a size zero to be attractive is dangerous – it could encourage eating disorders.

Some fashion models say they are naturally that slim. Many doctors say that it is unhealthy to be that thin, and some fashion shows have banned models who are size zero.

Health professionals have voiced concerns about the trend for ‘size zero’ fashion models, saying that it is generally unhealthy for a woman to be so thin. They also worry that teenage girls will try to imitate the size zero models and that eating disorders will increase.
