Skinny Minnie. Mouse. Seriously.
Thursday, August 30, 2012 AT 9:35 AM


Though it's definitely NOT where the turn of phrase "skinny minnie" has come from, New York department store Barney's has created a short film for their holiday season, starring our favourite Disney characters as supermodels walking the runway.

And in order to dress them in... Read More

When silver goes wrong at The Expendables 2 premiere
Friday, August 17, 2012 AT 9:52 AM


First of all, I can't even believe there is ANOTHER The Expendables movie. 'Cause like, the first one was so great, they just had to make more of the same. 

It really shows what is wrong with Hollywood. Just because you get all the big names in one movie, does not make it... Read More

Older models? Real people? Young models? Lanvin and Bulgari break the ad mould
Friday, July 20, 2012 AT 12:57 PM


Looks like two big names in fashion, Bulgari and Lanvin, were thinking along similar lines when they cast their new ad campaigns.

Bulgari went for the ever-beautiful Isabella Rossellini, who recently celebrated her 60th birthday (she famously and very abrubtly got fired from... Read More

Toe Surgery. Would you? Could you?
Friday, July 13, 2012 AT 9:08 AM


From the "what will they think of next" files comes this gold nugget: TOE THINNING SURGERY.

Sorry to shout, but really? Your toes are too fat?

What next?

There is no next, this is the end of the end as far as I'm concerned, we can only pedal backwards from here.... Read More

Helena Christenson in the new Reebok ad
Monday, February 06, 2012 AT 10:24 AM


Are you kidding me? Somebody give me a BREAK. Check out Helena Christenson in the new Reebok ad and tell me she's not way sexier than most of the bone-chillingly skinny models we see today. Gaunt faces and twig-like arms are not sexy ladies. This strong, fit image is exactly what we... Read More

This L'Oreal ad was banned in Britain for making Rachel Weisz "misleading attractive"
Thursday, February 02, 2012 AT 1:01 PM


I wouldn't even think this was one of the worse examples, but the British Advertising Standards Authority has banned this print ad for it "misleading exaggerating" how the product works. A member of the British parliament, Jo Swinson, initially complained about the ad which claims to... Read More

But where are Kate Moss' daughter's fingers?
Wednesday, August 17, 2011 AT 10:27 AM


Looks like US Vogue has some explaining to do. US site Jezebel noticed that they've faded her fingers out on her mother's back for their stunning portrait in the September issue. Whoopsy!

Somehow though, I don't mind this so much. They're fingers. It's not like they changed her... Read More

Gwyneth says no to plastic surgery ... except for ...
Tuesday, August 16, 2011 AT 2:59 PM


The Perfect Woman spoke to OK magazine in Germany where she revealed that she wouldn't get anything ... but a boob job. Huh?

"Before I didn't care about it. And I still refuse to use silicone, Botox or other of those gimmicks out of pure vanity. But a breast correction... Read More

Retouched makeup ads banned in UK
Wednesday, July 27, 2011 AT 3:11 PM

 

Finally! Some action on retouching! I love this story, today doing the rounds in the papers about the British MP who complained that the L'Oreal group was misleading the public about what miracles their... Read More

Daisy Lowe's body image issues on the table to UK InStyle magazine
Thursday, June 23, 2011 AT 3:44 PM

Daisy Lowe opened up to UK InStyle magazine about being a "bigger" model than the stick thin size zeroes designers normally hire. I, for one, don't think Daisy is at all big, but can't even imagine how I'd feel next to Anja Rubik, for example. Somewhere between a heifer and a baby blue whale... Read More
