The Evolution of Fashion Modeling
My model fandom actually started in the 2000s. I saw a Gemma Ward editorial and became fascinated with high fashion modeling. This isn't it, but you get the point. It was an extension of the interest in photography, costume design and makeup design that I already had. It would be awhile until I got into models 'for the looks' so to speak the way I did women in everyday life and celebrities. When that time came, I started to appreciate commercial modeling more. I went from there to appreciate the marketing aspect of commercial modeling as it introduced (to me) the supply and demand aspect that I wasn't familiar with in fashion. Of course, still not nearly as much as mainstream entertainment, but more than high fashion. Now, I appreciate it all, but have limited knowledge of its history. Trends vary from season to season, so one decade to another appears even more alien. We can already see how this 21st century decade differs from the previous. Anyway, here we go ... Guideline: Although I would love to explore the evolution of the model body, I hope to observe the rules regarding weight discussions and make observations rather than inspire debates.

Has she (assuming she wants any part of the entertainment industry) considered acting? Well, these days even singing. Group 1: Elsa Hosk 0.5 - best hips in the group. Barbara Palvin - she was pretty good in Hercules although not as good as Irina. Alexandria Morgan - 8 I find the strattling the fence tiresome, but I'll try to look the other way. Ana Beatriz - 6.5 Eniko Mihalik Karlie Kloss ------ Group 2: Dasha Derevyankina - 15 Hannah Ferguson Monika Jagaciak Madison Headrick Nadja Bender Gio Ott

Blanca Padilla - 3 Daria Werbowy - 5 Ah, old school . I remember when Ise first getting into fashion, it was all about high fashion and she was one of the first ones I knew. Like a Jessica Stam, she's what I call a natural model in that she doesn't have to show overt expression to contribute an expression to a picture. Those without said quality can be equally pretty and look like a pretty girl who can't model. Of course, I'd later discover the world of hot commercial models who I'll admit look better (to me) more often than not. In my book though, great editorials and great shows are the best things about fashion. Celebs have infiltrated one, but not both. It seems that in this world of the random hot woman you saw at Chick Fil A that time having 200k instagram followers , I believe that models need this standard even more. Having said all of that, I'm still voting based on just looks because its the only way to be fair to the ones I don't know .
