Photos of Models Getting Retouched in New Ways?

Monday June 15, 2009

The winds are changing. An editor at Vogue says that her magazine is often modifying pictures of models to make them look larger.

Why are they using models who are uncomfortably thin in the first place? Because that's the size of clothing that designers send out.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again (probably many times): If you can't design attractive clothes for the actual human body, you could probably use your artistic talents more profitably in some other form of design. Architecture, maybe?
