I realise we're all meant to believe that the skinny photoshopped models are just as thin as they appear in the photos, but perhaps you could at least put the girls legs back in the right place when you're done with her??

I can't see it? Hasn't she just pushed her hips to one side?

MassiveKnob · 25/11/2010 16:02

no they have deffo choppped her in half and tried to stick her back together. Grin

it is easier to see on the zoom whenskie

Suncottage · 25/11/2010 16:05

She needs to see a chiropractor about that

RiojaLover75 · 25/11/2010 16:06

She's not been chopped in half!!!! She's just a skinny bird standing funny in an odd sized jacket!!

whenskiesaregrey · 25/11/2010 16:11

I still can't see it?

But I could never do those magic eye things either...

Conflugenglugen · 25/11/2010 16:16

I'm with Rioja on this one. She's wearing a very puffy jacket that is not running with the contours of her body.

Doyouthinktheysaurus · 25/11/2010 16:18

She's definitely wonkyGrin

MinkyBorage · 25/11/2010 16:18

I used to be thin like her and can't see anything wronmg with it, apart from obviously the clothes are a bit horrid and not very flattering, but there is no way that she's been photoshopped. Why would they bother?

Hulababy · 25/11/2010 16:19

When I first looked I thought ?? But the more you look the more her body shape looks all wrong. She's have to have a really really high waist for that to be even vaguely right.

cakewench · 25/11/2010 16:24

I feel pretty much the same as Hulababy. I looked at it for ages (okay, maybe that's my problem!!) and it just seems so unnatural.

I will concede that I do not know for absolute sure that it is photoshopped, so if you disagree with me, that's fine. ;) It's still a wonky pic, though.

Definitely photoshopped. As Hula said, if she is not then she has a 30cm waist. Look at where her hips are and where the belt is buckled, ie. where her waist is.

BaroqinAroundTheChristmasTree · 25/11/2010 16:31

actually looking closer I don't tink they've chopped her legs off and re-aligned them - i think they've tried to shrink her waist on the right hand side )to get that nice gap between waist and arm) and in the process forgot to shrink her hip on that side

Oddly if you do a google image search for that jacket she comes up in every photo! Does noone else ever model it?

whenskiesaregrey · 25/11/2010 16:36

Well, I don't think her shape has been photoshopped, but it definetly teaches you not to spend nearly a grand Shock on a jacket that people will think you look strange in!

Quenelle · 25/11/2010 16:37

I think the jacket's just really stiff so is taking on a shape of its own. She's really skinny and has her hips pushed to one side.

BaroqinAroundTheChristmasTree · 25/11/2010 16:40

well actually to be correct those that think she's an odd shaped don't think she's been badly photoshopped..........almost every advertising image/magazine image you see will have been photoshopped to some degree..........it's whtehr they make a disaster of it or not that makes the difference Grin
