Did you see this? Models without airbrushing
Alessandra Ambrosio, Crystal Renn, Brooklyn Decker
The article that accompanies it is about whether we should do away with airbrushing (yeah right), but I thought the picture was interesting, to say the least. Thoughts?

Re: Did you see this? Models without airbrushing
Do you have a link to the article?
Crystal Renn (wasn't she a plus size model or am I thinking of someone else?) and Brooklyn Decker look so normal. I kind of like them more now.
I'd still punch a grandma to look like that.
*pokes rolls of lard*
I enlarged it for this post.
The one in the middle is a size 12, she is a plus-size model. Brooklyn Decker (on the right) is a SI swimsuit model.
That is because the middle model is considered "plus size".
And don't you love how Alessandra Ambrosio is standing?
Darn, Yahoo is blocked at work
Yeah, Crystal Renn and Brooklyn Decker are not skinny minis anyway (as far as modeling goes!) but Alessandra is skinny as *** here.
I think this is a bad photo for what they are trying to say.
The one on the far left looks really, really underweight. And I think she has to pee.
I feel much better about myself seeing the one in the middle. Add some stretch marks (thank you DS), more boob and a pair of glasses and that's pretty much me. Sweet! There's still no chance that I'd wear a string bikini though.
Meh on the far right girl. She looks normal. Dunno why she'd need airbrushing.

But if you look, thats how her body is. Her legs are in great shape and look pretty muscular. Her arms are thin but not in an anorexic way or anything. She also has a very young child, so go her for getting her abs back.
I noticed that on second look. Those are not the thighs of someone who's starving herself away. It may just be easier for her to maintain that tiny stomach.
This is exactly what I thought when I opened the picture.
And the one in the middle is a size 12? I'm in a 16, not that much bigger, and I sure wish I looked like she does at a 12! I'm probably about ten inches shorter than her, though.
