QUOTE: Grace Coddington On Overly Thin Models

QUOTE: Grace Coddington On Overly Thin Models fashion

Perez had a lot of typos in this entry, but we’re all guilty of that from time to time. Regardless, Grace had a lot to say on overly thin models, and the recent Ralph Lauren photoshop incident. Do you agree with her?:

“It’s a big problem. I remember when I was young [and still modeling], they told me that if I didn’t lose weight, I’d be out of the show, so I spent a week living off of coffee. But I’m a very levelheaded person. These problems nowadays are with kids much, much younger than that, and that’s most of the problem – when they’re very young and vulnerable….

But it’s a big problem in the fashion industry. And you go to meetings to discuss it, and you think it’s kind of futile, because it’s such a big thing, and in the end, people are always asking for more and they’re always asking for thinner…. [Models] have to be a little thinner than you and I because you always photograph a little fatter, but you don’t have to go to the extremes they go to. And because they’re kids, they take it too far and they can’t regulate their lives, and next thing you know, they’re anorexic, and it is tragic.

And I don’t know what the answer is, except to keep on it, which we’re all trying to do. Anna’s trying to do it. Personally, we’re not allowed, at Vogue, to work with girls who are very thin, but you never know, because you could book them and think they’re a certain size, and they turn up on the shoot and suddenly they’ve spun into this anorexic situation. And you’re on the spot and you have to get the job done and you have one day to do it, and what do you do? But you try to be responsible, as Anna is.”

IN REVIEW: Extreme Beauty In Vogue

IN REVIEW: Extreme Beauty In Vogue  fashion

There’s nothing like having high quality prints of Irving Penn, Richard Avedon, Helmut Newton, Steven Klein, Annie Leibovitz, Steven Meisel and several other established photographer’s work in the confines of your own home. I had the opportunity to snag a copy of Dolce & Gabbana’s collaborated photo compilation, Extreme Beauty In Vogue, before it hit’s shelves in October, and I must admit, I feel like a child staring at a picture book, completely mesmerized by every photo. Edited by Phyllis Posnick with an essay by Eva Respini, Extreme Beauty In Vogue exposes photographic, stylistic and journalistic perceptions of female beauty and opinions on allure. Featuring two centuries of work, the evolution of cultural attitudes on women is exposed in this coffee-table must have. And for those of you hung up on Vogue’s typical conservatism, there’s enough nipples, asses, bestiality and blood to suit your fancy. Shove your Beatles anthology to the side folks, because this $55 investment is what your dinner guests should be snooping through!

WTF!?!: A Color Ad In The September Issue Of Vogue Is $128,220 (Even For The Black Eyed Peas)

 

Picture 1

The Black Eyed Peas decided it would be a good idea to place an ad for their new album E.N.D. in the September issue of Vogue. They may not have realized that single color ad would cost them $128,220. With Conde Nast failing, I guess they can’t let Fergie get this one on the house.
