Models have rights too, no? You might not think so to look at the way many women and men are mistreated in the industry. To combat those issues, nonprofit group the Model Alliance has drafted a bill of rights for models. According to the document, which is still in draft form, models should have the right to a professional relationship with their agent/agency, transparent accounting processes, control over their careers, and negotiable commissions, with special notes for models under 18. Watch a video from the Alliance, below, decribing how the group sees addressing models' rights problems as "an overlooked frontier of women's rights and workers' rights."
