Model gossip #2

[itsnotmyfaulthonest]

I love the covers, but why so much Photoshop?! Would have appreciated the photos looking a bit more “real”

Lots of models posting tributes to Vivienne, love this pic of Kate

 

[SqualorVictoria]

Cindy, Christy, etc, all still look amazing, probably because they're not trying to look younger. I never would have thought Kate would be the one to go overboard on the work done

Vogue September cover !!!!! The original supers

I mean, why do they look as if they froze mid sentence because the camera's flash was too bright

 

[Stillwater]

The supes looked happy - or radiated success or something - like a vitality. Models today look like ghouls who’ve lost their last £1 on a scratch- card.

 

[Fish & Chips]

Stunning.

There’s a brilliant BTS photography book called ‘Being There’ - Gavin Bond about the 90s models and fashion

Just found this thread! Love model chat.

My claim to fame, Erin O'Connor called me a "r etard" when I was 13 and went on a shopping trip to London. I bloody loved Vogue and fashion, tried to be an Olsen twin with my huge disgusting Starbucks etc like a pretentious teen, and did probably stare like a weirdo (Topshop Oxford circus). The worst part was she rolled her R's for ages when she said it and laughed with the friend she was with. Mortified.. never looked at her the same again and I didn't even speak to her

What a horror ! That reflects on her not you my love so forget the nasty jealous of you bitch ! Xxx

Instead of revelling in the fact that Kate Moss was her half sister "yes that's my sister, pretty cool huh", she acted like she was owed something and that she should be just as famous and rich and iconic. I mean, what are the odds that two daughters from the same Dad and different mothers were both going to be supermodels on the same level? Slim to none, especially as it has been noted before that Kate gets her looks from her Mum

She has so little self esteem that she is also being passed around reality tv Z listers. That rumour about Spencer Matthews is true. I don’t know her but I know people who do.

 

[hehehe]

sometimes it looks good but other times its a "deer in the headlights" look because her eyes look so tightly pulled back. but i guess she wanted to look fresh and youthful to advertise cosmoss ... cant exactly run a wellness brand when you've aged terribly

Can't run a wellness brand when you're known to have fucked Pete Doherty but that never stopped her.

I am a bit younger than Kate, and my cousins lived in Croydon when we were kids, and it was the main shopping/ nightlife hub when I was a tee. Then, as now there are rough bits, but it was much better then than now. South Croydon and surrounds are quite middle class- big houses, good schools etc, but again, even the nice areas were nicer then.

Croydon is so close to the heart of london, it must be very expensive now in all of that area!

I remember reading Kate saying she would always have to take the train up to London to her “go sees” by herself and thinking, well, Croydon mustn’t be too far from all the big designers and fashion houses in the capital, if she was allowed to go by herself. (This was shortly after she was discovered at 14 in the 1980s, I think.) I believe. at one point she was living with Corinne Day in Soho not far off that age, god, her parents must have REALLY let her run rampant, whose parents at that age would let their daughter live in the heart of dodgy Soho back then, it was full of prostitutes and sex clubs!

Think I remember reading Rosemary Supermodel (can’t remember her last name) lived with them too. Kate is still friends with all these people all these decades later.

I do love this, I love the Twigs but I straight away saw Polly from Red Dwarf on a big night out (out out if you will),

 

[Jas19/2]

I’m late to the party but I’ve just watched a supermodels on Apple TV. I was a little young to remember them all at their peak but it was a good watch.
I do think Cindy and Christie were probably the best out of them and I’ve liked Cindy from other stuff that I’ve seen her do however I felt sorry for Linda when she was discussing her botched cosmetic surgery and her breast cancer. I got the feeling that she couldn’t deal with the fact her modelling career was going to end inevitably one day It’s a shame she never crossed over into other things like Cindy did.
As for Kate moss I’ve never thought that she was that interesting to look at when you compare her to Yasmeen Ghauri and Claudia Schiffer and Karen Mulder

Yeah, I'm conflicted about him and whether it's just the hair plus looking very self-conscious and stupid clothes that make it look a bit funny or whether he really doesn't have modeling potential. He does have killer cheekbones though, hahah!

found this pic from the same fashion show where he smiles and there he does look very handsome (+ stupid hair)

He's not ugly or anything, but he's nothing special either. Why do they all have to be models? I'd rather see interesting new people, not random celebrity offspring. It's so lazy of brands to always go this route just because there is already some media interest guaranteed. But it's gotten really boring anyway. I can't name an ultra contemporary model I really like. I guess times have just changed.

Linda shared a tribute post for Giorgio Armani with some nice photos. I noticed in the third one, she's cropped out Naomi

I wonder if Kate now positioning herself as some kind of wellness guru is just not convincing people?
The products seem expensive as well, and a bit 'airy fairy' if that makes sense. Lots of stuff about your aura.
It is strange they are just not being promoted anywhere, even by her chums (as far as I can see) which seems odd.

In her ‘what’s in my bag video’ you saw a packet of cigarettes on the pile of things she had emptied out. Obviously Vogue didn’t mention them. I guess it’s silly to try and be a wellness guru if you’re still smoking?

I feel like i have to like Lila moss cos shes type 1 diabetic so its someone female and young i can show to my type1 diabetic teenage daughter
i think she does have a unique look - not international model material but she is definitely still gorgeous
i do wonder if she had loads of nannies as a child because i know i'm so stressed and burned out from managing my daughters diabetes its all consuming. and kate was away off with pete doherty and jet setting - kind of off track but just made me wonder lol

There were rumours years ago that she left Lila on a yacht after a party because she was so off her face, and she had to be rescued by staff. I suspect her 'Mothering' was unique at best.

Yes she has Hashimoto's disease. She did say in an interview a couple of years ago that it was the reason she was losing weight which is opposite of Hashimoto's as it makes people gain weight.
Her sister (and the forgotten brother) still have chronic Lyme disease which pops up conveniently.

“Chronic Lyme” aka munchausens

How come foster parents and adoptive parents have to go through a rigorous application process to raise a child but any old joe blogs can just go out and buy a kid? Dangerous.

A tiktok of 90s model Kirsty Hume applying her make up came on my fyp today. She is stunning and looks her age.

 

[MissHavisham]

Such a pretty girl. Could see her working behind a bar in Zante for the summer season.

But not so much the supermodelling.
