A Healthy Message from Fashion Designers

It’s Fashion Week in New York, and everyone is abuzz with spring 2010 trends. One trend happens to be seasonless- and that's good nutrition. This week the Council of Fashion Designers of America is distributing a nutrition pamphlet called ‘Model Foods For The Model Life' as part of the CFDA Health Initiative.

We’re quite partial to the cover: a trio of Audrey look-alikes munching on a enormous sandwich. You probably won’t see that backstage at the Fashion Week tents! Though we do hope that there will be plenty of people following the CFDA’s nutrition advice (models and designers alike!) on sustained energy, sound breakfast choices and eating for beautiful hair and skin.

The pamphlet coincides with the release of CFDA’s American Fashion Cookbook, which includes recipes from 100 of the boldface names in American fashion. If you’ve ever wanted to try Isaac Mizrahi’s Mushroom Truffle Spaghetti, Donna Karan’s Green Juice or Tory Burch’s Andalusian Gazpacho, this is the cookbook you’ve been waiting for.
