Put on weight

That's what Israel wants its models to do. It just passed a law banning unnaturally thin models from the catwalk and restricting ads that are digitally altered to make models look skinnier.  The law was triggered by Adi Barkan, a fashion photographer and modelling agent, who had one of his models die from anorexia while he was visiting her in the hospital. 

Perhaps the name of your country must begin with "I", as Italy and India have also banned ultrathin models from the catwalk.
