Comments on: They Can’t Rock It Like Iman http://pinkrockcandy.net/fashion/2008/07/01/they-cant-rock-it-like-iman/ A fashion blog with a splash of rock Mon, 30 Apr 2012 16:37:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: Chelsea Rae http://pinkrockcandy.net/fashion/2008/07/01/they-cant-rock-it-like-iman/comment-page-1/#comment-7019 Chelsea Rae Wed, 02 Jul 2008 21:38:00 +0000 http://pinkrockcandy.net/fashion/?p=441#comment-7019 <b>Sally Jane:</b> Totally, and she's a classic in the best sense possible! <b>Secretista:</b> I'm glad I've pleased the Secretista. Can we put Iman in our 90s-themed issue? <b>The Clothes Horse:</b> Good point... I love my gay designers, but they need to start think more like straight men when it comes to model body type! I just dressed my brother for his senior pictures— I must say, I did a damn good job! :b <b>la petite fashionista:</b> Exactly! I mean, MJ put Dakota Fanning in his ads a few years ago, and she for sure wasn't and isn't over 5'8". I think people should expand their horizons and start casting short people. By the way, that's so cool that you work at a model management company! <b>Jill:</b> Its so annoying when you see a dress on a tall, rail-thin model and then you try it on, and the dress is way too long, and looks funny because you actually have a chest. ...or is that just me? Sally Jane:
Totally, and she’s a classic in the best sense possible!

I agree with you that these pictures each have something a bit strange, that looks great. I don't understand why pretty much all the models now have the figure of a 7 year old boy, especially because most designs look better with curves. I myself don't have great curves, but the fact that they are using some of these women to sell the clothes puzzles me.

I think part of the "barely women" phenom we're seeing is b/c most designers are gay men. Honestly, when more designers were straight men (historically) we had ridiculous clothes and styles, but they were all about emphasizing women's natural curves (extreme low cut blouses, tiny waists and ginormous hips). So the vision in vogue right now is that of homosexual men, who let's face it--their fantasies aren't about women looking sexy! Oh and very cool on your brother to get to help dress him. I have hope for boys everywhere!
