有人担心，时装店的人体模特身材太瘦，会促进不切实际的身材理想。到目前为止，还没有对高街时装商店的人体模型的尺寸进行系统的检查。我们调查了位于两个英国城市商业街的全国性时装零售商。“男性”和“女性”人体模型的体型由两位盲法研究助理使用视觉评定量表进行评估。女性人体模型的平均体型代表了体重过轻的女性，100%的女性人体模型代表了体重过轻的女性。男性模特的平均体型明显大于女性模特的平均体型。只有8%的男性人体模特体重过轻。用来宣传女性时尚的人体模特的体型是不现实的，在医学上被认为是不健康的。
There is concern that the body size of fashion store mannequins are too thin and promote unrealistic body ideals. To date there has been no systematic examination of the size of high street fashion store mannequins. We surveyed national fashion retailers located on the high street of two English cities. The body size of ‘male’ and ‘female’ mannequins was assessed by two blinded research assistants using visual rating scales. The average female mannequin body size was representative of a very underweight woman and 100% of female mannequins represented an underweight body size. The average male mannequin body size was significantly larger than the average female mannequin body size. Only 8% of male mannequins represented an underweight body size. The body size of mannequins used to advertise female fashion is unrealistic and would be considered medically unhealthy in humans.
