August 16, 201410 yr Today, in a shooting. Beautiful as usual. But no need to say that brunette is better, in my opinion. Agree
August 18, 201410 yr Flashback...The picture I posted in spoiler on August 15 belongs to the photo session that Bianca made for Playboy France in 2009. Somebody posted the shooting at that time (I was searching and it's on page 246) but the links have expired. Considering that Bianca made Playboy again recently (US), I think it's a good chance to remember that old shooting in order to compare it to the new one. For my liking, Playboy France was much better. Judge for yourselves... Playboy France. June/July 2009.Photos: Greg Lotus. Warning. Nudity. Which do you like the most?
August 19, 201410 yr Yeah and the paradox is that it is the same photographer for both shoots. One is tasteful, the other- not. Why is that?
August 19, 201410 yr You're right. Greg Lotus was the photographer for both shoots. Why the difference? My personal guess is the same magazine had to please a different public (American and French). Their tastes and aesthetics are totally different. Of course, I'm not trying to say that American public prefer distasteful things. I'm just saying the meaning of "distasteful" could change depending on the audience (in the same way it changes depending on the person). Maybe, the American liking is fond of things/images that could be called "too explicit" in other countries. You know, there are different ways to wear nudity.

I think that could be it, I also think because she previously shot with this same publication and photographer they probably felt comfortable asking for more explicit shots the 2nd time around. Also to further your point in most of North America they go to great lengths to cover nudity in media here so when the publication that is all about nudity in the American market thye probably try for more explicit. In either case I think the shoot she just did left a bad taste in my mouth, this isn't some random playmate wannabe model its an established fashion model and that garden hose shot was incredibly trashy.
August 24, 201410 yr I miss her dark hair too...But not this style she wore for the latest L'Oreal print advert (I'm sure it's a wig). L'Oreal Paris.
August 26, 201410 yr Bianca Balti for OVS Fall/Winter 2014. Part of the interview from the last issue of Vanity Fair Italy. No photo session. http://www.vanityfair.it/people/italia/14/08/25/bianca-balti-intervista-foto#gallery=18651-6
