new faces

[Ophelia_Immortal]

I personally love the strange/alien girls. I find them captivating!

[AnaBBarrosFan]

I think most of the girls posted here do not even have anything face model, are really strange

sorry

Melinda :

Actually, most of these girls DO have the face to be a model. Why? Because fashion now deems odd faces, interesting features, and exaggerated countenances beautiful. I am one of those people who agrees. A lot of the 'traditional' beauties, are boring, uninteresting, and lacking any concept of what modeling is. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, therefore, a model has to have some spark of individuality to stand out.

A pretty face can only get you so far, and a pretty face gets pretty boring when it constantly looks the same.

[arielle]

For me these models are quite good looking, strange face or not

[Vanessa_gxox]

Im not keen on many of the new faces posted here as they are very unique,odd & strange, but this is what is now considered "beautiful" in the fashion industry. i agree with PrettyPhile, they're are so many stunning girls out there, but what makes one of them memorable and stand out from the crowd?

[phenobarbie]

My only point was that I personally don't get the appeal of the new trend for weird, awkward looking girls. I understand why the fashion industry has picked them up, and I realize that this is the new 'it' thing for the decade, I'm just truly hoping that they go back to healthy looking body types and beauty that while may not be completely conventional at least gives girls something to relate to. What is interesting is if you look in the competitions section, and for the most part any worldwide polls done it's those girls that are classically 'pretty' that are still garnering the most interest and still appealing to the mass media/average joe the most.

I'm not saying discount the unique/strange girls, just don't inundate us with them as much as they are. Have a nice healthy balance of up and comers who have a strange looking beauty and those that have a classical beauty. Commercial is the home of the classic, why can't high fashion be as well? It should be all about exaggeration. Personal conjecture aside I realize that most of high fashion isn't about the model it's about the clothes, but can't they at least have pretty coat racks stomping down the runway instead of weird looking ones?

Apparently they must have a face to be a model, since they are, but this is only my opinion, I like to see a model with a pretty face to look, because I associate fashion to beauty. For me what is unique or different does not have to be good. I even prefer the classic beauty. But this is my way of seeing

I don´t know what to say. You said it all. geez, Pheno, THAT WAS GREAT exactly what bothers me so much recently. Because what I see here mostly are BONES and hair. Guys, look at it with open eyes. Bones. Bones everywhere. Models with a size of a 12 year old girl. I don´t want to look at 12 year old girls, jesus! Even if they are pretty or not, I just don´t care at all!

I love weird looking models, and Gemma was always my favourite, but have to say, I absolutely agree with pheno that some balance would be amazing - some kind of EQUILIBRIUM in the modeling industry. I don´t want to see only edgy looking models, weird models, models with head size of my car. I want to see classic beauties as well, women with healthy body that I can adore and look up to.

That´s all

[youareaprincess]

Melinda is at the moment doing very well modeling. She worked with William Lords, did first editorials for major magazines. And she'll appear in a couple of big shows during the next weeks. According to her agencies.

Anyway I don't see any potential in "fat & commercial" models. They look like 1000 other people. There's nothing pretty in them.

A model shouldn't be twice - nowhere

Olga has a great face, she worked for Vogue italy, Harpers Bazar & L'officiel in her past. And she doesn't look usual

Olga Kubrak @ OK’S Models (Ukraine) & ICE Models (Milan)

I think a lot of people are also forgetting that models are meant to be artsy hangers in a very literal sense. They are supposed to inspire a designers, give life and emotion to a piece of clothing. Technically, you aren't supposed to emulate a high fashion model.. your supposed to look up to and be appealed by a commercial mode. There's a reason why they are two branches on the modeling/fashion industry. I TOTALLY understand where both of you are coming from, but the way I see it, you can't really be annoyed with a high fashion model looking odd when she's in the right bracket of the market. Just like I don't go ape-shit when Siri Tollerod isn't the face of Maybelle or something 'commercial' like that.

Being in a fashion forum, obviously you're going to be inundated with these 'odd' looking models, but if you go into Aeropostale (I can't spell that place, I don't wear they're evil clothes lol), or walk down the mall, you'll notice most of the faces advertising shit, for the most part, ARE pretty normal looking girls. Look 'em up, get a thread going for 'em.

Alright, I'm done.

[Jennka]

Olga is beautiful. I kinda like her. But frankly, "she doesn´t look usual"? No, she looks pretty usual. And I see NOTHING bad about that

Anyway I don't see any potential in "fat & commercial" models. They look like 1000 other people. There's nothing pretty in them.

I really, really hope you don´t mean this one seriously. If yes, go and see a doctor, SERIOUSLY. Because I´ve never seen a fat commercial model. But I´ve seen many models that looked anorectic and unhealthy. Something that scares the hell out of me. And many of them are here, in this thread.

Think about it

Once again. I LIKE edgy looking models. That´s why I love Gemma so much or Daria (who most people find weird and alien-like) and many more.

I was scared by the 12-year old girl here and from it all started. Scared by bones all around me. GIRLS that have a long way to grow up still.

The equilibrium is other thing. That´s utopia. And I´m not annoyed I was shocked

1. I'm not saying you don't, sweetie.

2. I'm not saying either of you get annoyed, but I know people who do, so it was more of a generalized statement, and I used both of your replies to fuel a third thought.

[arielle]

At the same time, what do we ask models to have? Bones. Its like the first criterion. I agree most of those models'body are not so perfect. They lack of extraweight and are far from the 90-60-90 perfection, but they're tall. I guess its not as easy when you have that requirement to find stunning people as if it was people on the street.

Modeling or not at that age is another issue.

By the way Daria is very skinny too (and beautiful).

Edit: Anyway I truly dont want to spoil the thread anymore so lets stop it, or continue elsewhere.

[Expresso]

Before I start, I appreciate the thread and the diversity. So I am not hating on this thread or the efforts put in by youareprincess. You rock.

BUT

I don't get the whole alien/weird/man-droid look thing either. These are not the models that are going to be popular in a couple of years, because they're not appealing at all to the average Joe. Maybe for HF, but it is in HF fashion shows that I've wondered for the first time why certain girls were even wearing a bikini top because they didn't have anything to fill it up with. HF as it is right now makes it possible for lingerie shows to be repulsing to look at.

Some of the girls posted here are strikingly beautiful but interesting at the same time (like this girl. So I don't agree that to be pretty equals looking generic and boring. If that were true the same could be said for the ugly and weird looking girls, who are boring and generic in their collective...weirdness.

I'll probably get bashed for this post by all the 'beauty is in the eye of the beholder' people, but I'm sorry, some of these girls just cannot be called beautiful:

She looks horrendous in my opinion.

And this girl looks too young and too thin. Looking at her in a bikini (or some bad imitation of that) feels like looking at child pornography.

But that's just my opinion and I know that doesn't mean much at all.

Think about it

She didn't mean it that way, the fat part. But you guys have taken over her thread here and are doing nothing but being negative so she might be a bit annoyed.

This thread is not made for this. Please make a new thread about how you don't like the alien look somewhere else so we can keep getting all the lovely info and pictures from youareprincess.

[Ophelia_Immortal]

I find Olga beautiful and again from the last page:

You guys need to rememeber that these are new faces. The young ones wont be modeling for a few years, they are in development only.

[sagitario]

I am 100% expresso opinion about these two girls

[penny-dreaddfull]

ugh, not gonna touch this one with a friggin 10 ft. pole.

@ youareaprincess -- you do a kick ass job of showing people what is coming, whether they like what they see or no

*looks at the new model YAAP posted

*jaunts outta the thread

You have NO IDEA how right you are about that.

Why am I being so horrible today?
