While she remains in that environment and with those people, including her monstrous mother, Allegra doesn't stand a hope in hell of dealing with her illness.

In the fashion industry, the clothes are what's important, not the model's health. As long as the clothes look good, that's enough. And the sad thing is, it's true. Look at that pic of her in the light blue (teal-ish) dress: the dress looks great, but Allegra looks like shit. This isn't to say I advocate anorexia, which Allegra clearly has.
