W Magazine pulled together their fabulous fashion
strings for a beautiful supermodel melting pot of note. Queen Kate, Lara Stone
and Daria Werbowy are just some of the gorgeous faces on show, in this
"Super Normal Supermodel" themed shoot.
The super normal models
dress-down in basic 90's fashion with a few punk elements thrown in - think
sneakers, sweatshirts, jeans, knitwear and boots by Diesel, Versace, Dr
Martens, Marc Jacobs, Calvin Klein Underwear and Agent Provocateur.
The trend of depicting supermodels as
"normal", genetically blessed creatures is a ridiculously beautiful
one, but these beauties are anything, but normal.
Having worked at a modelling
agency myself, I can honestly say that most models are incredibly dedicated to
their craft - hours are spent ensuring that their assets are always in pure
perfection.
This unrealistic ideal of beauty is anything but normal. The glossy
W Magazine spread seems to do little in terms of depicting any colour - this is
an all-white affair, brimming with perfect hips, famous faces and a thinly
veiled obsession with skinny creatures of the runway.
Normal? Nah. But, the spread is still an iconic
summary of 90's fashion history, which you have to see to appreciate!
