Ban也是用来表达“禁止”，也可以理解为“封杀”，比如：
The world's first ban on overly thin models at a top-level fashion show in Madrid has caused outrage among modeling agencies and raised the prospect of restrictions at other catwalk pageants. 马德里高级时装秀首次封杀骨感模特，这一行为引起了模特经纪公司的愤怒，其他时尚秀也可能会出台类似禁令。
果然，主办伦敦时装周的行业组织英国时装理事会在今年2月时装周的前一周致信设计师，要求他们只能用那些16岁以上形象健康的模特。
However, it has stopped short of following the lead of authorities in Italy and Spain by imposing a ban on the skinniest models. 然而，英国时装理事会并没有效仿意大利和西班牙的有关组织封杀过瘦模特的做法。
