Food was now her enemy, and soon, living on only three apples a day and Diet Coke galore, Victoire became anorexic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn unflinching, painful expose of the uglier face of fashion, her testimony is a shocking example of how our culture's mechanisms of anorexia and bulimia can push a young woman to the point of suicide.
