Idk, I find the "all natural" debate kind of sad. You're looking at girls photoshopped to hell and back, pampered, lipoed, lasered, dyed hair, veneers, and covered in makeup. What is 'natural' anymore? I understand that plastic surgery is a little more extreme, but at the same time I get the same people who complain about people looking 'fake' are often the same ones who will s*** on a girl who wears a 34A or who has 'too thick of a waist' after having kids. The thing is, all of these girls have some aspect of them that is not 'natural.' I'm not going to pretend I've never been guilty of this and I'm not trying to get on a high horse or anything, but I sometimes I wonder why, why in such a superficial industry, that so many people think plastic surgery is the tipping point LOL.

Please remember that everyone is entitled to an opinion. There are plenty of people in the world who don't agree with what you think is "fact" about who is prettier; one person's "insanely gorgeous" is another person's "insanely not." Anyway, back to Kendall…seems she won't be in Milan as she flew back to LA, but I'm curious to see whether she crops up in Paris next week.

I love her CR Fashion Book edit! Thank you sarf for the add.

Thank you PinkCouture! That last swim pic is probably the best one she's ever taken.

Thank you so much Michellexo for the pics

PLEASE NO. Also, I think she's way on the thin side for SI.

I don't think she looks horrible in these pics in particular, but I totally understand what you're saying. I'm on my last few months before I pretty much call it quits TBH. It's so sad because this girl literally could have been massive if she had played her cards right, but once you're off it's pretty hard to get back on. I think people are being relentlessly optimistic because work trickles in at a satisfying-enough pace that it seems like maybe she realized she was a model. But once L'Oreal drops her (and they will…) the jig is up. She seems more interested in being Internet famous than working hard, and I think by the time she even started to realize there might be a problem she was sitting watching shows during LFW in the 4th row while Stella steals her thunder and even Kendall Jenner walks by her. It's crazy to compare her career in the past year to someone like Sara Sampaio, who is making it big right now. Meanwhile Barbara just takes a lot of selfies. And sorry, but I know someone will chime in like 'let's be happy for her! la la!' but there's just no reason to waste time on people who very obviously don't want to put in the effort. IDK where her agents are, but she can't be making half as much as she did a couple years ago, so I'm surprised they haven't given her a big push yet. TBH it seems like she and her agents are BFFs and they're a little too hands off with her.

I totally agree--someone disagreed on this point earlier, but I'm pretty sure Lily had more prime time interviews in the last 48 hours than she has had for VS in upwards of 3 years. Also, VS seems to be creeping away from any cross-promotion; I mean if they even bothered to put Lily on their home page or had strategically Instagrammed/tweeted a picture of her today they would probably have gotten a big boost on their site traffic. SMH at their PR people. They blow prime opportunities to promote themselves and are then forced to artificially create public interest instead. On another note, I would LOVE to see Elsa or Shanina in SI. I also think Barbara Palvin needs to get in on it if she ever wants to be relevant again.

Thank you for all the updates! I LOVE the tux and the hair. Wish she had worn a different cut of blouse (either a button down or a v-neck) but she looks fantastic as usual. Really happy to see her in London - I hope she sneaks her way onto a runway.

a 'fruity, floral, girly' fragrance? color me S H O C K E D, LOL. They need to find another way to promote these fragrances I think…I mean I understand knowing the scents but every single time Candice the girls say exactly the same thing. The difference between Lily's VS and SI swim pics is ridiculous. Though I think she's gotten a lot stronger lately as well.

^ I agree, but I think if you're any type of public figure, you've got to take criticism in stride--it will come whether or not you want it. Chin up, Genevieve (because I'm sure you're going to come back to this thread and read this), and just keep working hard. Also, you should probably not go through these threads bc BZ can be tough, and that's not likely to really change. I'm also LOLing at the fact that SI has already given Lily more promotion than VS will ever bother to.

She looks like 25 at the oldest…literally how does this woman do it Thank you Savanna for the pics!

LAWD…is that supposed to mean Miley somehow made it into SI or are you just using that as a saying Why do I have a feeling that Ireland will be in there too

Ireland probably won't do VS but I think they'll pick up both Kendall and Gigi Hadid

Yes. Absolutely. I see it happening. I think they will put her in PINK. And VS generally likes HF girls, but not always. I don't think Lily or Miranda were HF girls before VS; Sara definitely is not, and Camille apparently walked her first HF fashion show at Rag & Bone last week. So I think if you get signed to a major agency you've got a shot, though having HF experience is a bonus. But frankly, if the girl is a socialite or well known she has a better shot. Which is why I think Kendall will be in.

Wow, she has seriously brought her A game. I love that picture in the dark blue; what a perfect color on her. Hope they keep putting her in jewel tones.

sure thing! well, i'll assume you know what a nipple is the -ification suffix is derived from the latin 'ficare' or 'to make' so nipplefication would be 'to make nipples' but the de- prefix implies negation, meaning the opposite, like 'remove' or 'without' put it all together, and denipplefication would mean "to make without nipples". it's a perfectly cromulent word. for further evidence of SI's denipplefication practices, please see fellow BZ'er swimsuitologist's post on the subject LOL WTF

WTF please dont insult Candice and Miranda.. Kendall is a beautiful girl no doubt about that, shes the best looking kardashian/jenner..but please dont say shes better looking than Candice or Miranda..because those two are out of this world stunning...you dont see anyone DYING to look like Kendall like how they do with C and M Its like saying snooki looks better than Adriana Lima to me.. (I understand thats your opinion..but damn i never thought I'd see the day) I mean I don't necessarily agree that Kendall is prettier, but people are not dying to look like Candice because of her face… But I think Kendall is quite cute. Something in her face actually reminds me a lot of Candice and Miranda when they both started out. Very round and relatively soft features, and both C and M had a lot of trouble early on, but they were both able to build a market for themselves after VS picked them up. IDK I just think people give KJ a lot of flack that she wouldn't get if she was your average model. Not that there's not valid criticism but people just **** all over her when it takes most models quite a while to get going. I almost feel bad for her.

Damn it, you set this one up well…but I'll be nice LOL

if that happens.... you're not alone with that feeling about Givenchy...well, if not now, then maybe in later seasons I will die But there were rumors she did a shoot for Vogue US and when a reporter asked Grace Coddington during FW she gave a non-answer like 'oh I'm not involved in covers! I don't know what they picked!' (LIES) I think it's inevitable and personally, I think it'll be funny for the internet to explode like it did when Kate Upton made the cover last year. Oh Anna TL;DR: Kardashians are basikally taking over Amerikan Vogue

Hope springs eternal I did like seeing more of Lindsay in that swim video, though. She looked pretty!

Nope, these are by Maciek Kobielski Thank you

The Vogue Spain instagram said it would be a summer issue I think, so maybe not until May or June. No worries. :neo2:

Just think what you think; you won't change anyone's mind on the internet. I like that blue and white dress, though I think the lipstick is a little dark.
