A Letter to Vogue Magazine

To whom this may concern,

My name is Valerie Jones, and I've recently come across your magazine. Vogue is known worldwide, read and seen by many. For your works you are considered a fashion institution. You have the power to influence many women, and set good examples, but when I opened your magazine I saw nothing like that. The models that represent these high end designer look like the way 90 pounds. Is that the image you want to convey?
When young girls pick up your magazine they're looking for inspiration, what they want to look like. You should show young healthy girls with body types that are realistic. Examples are super models Kate Moss and Naomi Campbell, beautiful skinny 5'9 girls. I don't look like that and I don't know anyone who does. Do you know how many women died trying to look like that, or who have had eating disorders because of your advertisements?
I'm not asking for you to change your whole magazine on one letter, but take what I said into consideration, by doing something different to help young women around the world.

Reflection: When starting this letter I really didn't know what to write, I improvised a bit. I don't think the letter came out too bad.
