Crystal Renn Blasts Airbrushing
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Editorials, Health & Beauty, Models, News,
Plus-size supermodel Crystal Renn was horrified after bosses airbrushed 30lbs off her frame for a campaign poster.
Crystal, who is a size 10, says the pictures for the Fashion for Passion advertisements no longer look like her because her appearance has been altered so much.
“They brushed about 30lbs off my body. I sat there in silence for so long when I saw the pictures. I couldn’t believe what they’d done. It didn’t look like me. Don’t cut inches off my thighs. Don’t make me a size two when I’m a 10. It’s totally misleading. Fashion should be about a beautiful girl in beautiful clothes, not this size obsession. It’s dangerous. But if I have a zit or cellulite, take it off!”

Actress-turned-model Megan Fox is the new face of Giorgio Armani Cosmetics.
The stunning actress - who has previously advertised for Emporio Armani underwear and Armani Jeans - will appear in the advertising campaign for the brand later this year, replacing model Lara Stone.
Naturally, Fox was thrilled to be asked: “Mr. Armani is an iconic visionary for all things fashion. I’m honored to be associated with him and part of this campaign.”
The 24-year-old beauty was chosen by the designer because of her striking good looks and engaging personality. “Megan embodies the spirit of the women of today: free, confident and seductive. Her beautiful features reveal femininity, sensuality and strength,” a spokesperson said.
The beauty campaign was photographed by Craig McDean, with make-up by Linda Cantello.

Birds, flowers, and cats are out—tartan and plaid are in! The Miu Miu Fall/Winter 2010 campaign is out and it’s absolutely gorgeous and mod-tastic. Shot in London by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggot, the photos feature models Lindsey Wixson, Ginta Lapina, Siri Tollerod and Daphne Groenweld.

Looks like Miranda Kerr isn’t the only supermodel in her relationship: Orlando Bloom is the newest celebrity face for Hugo Boss.
The actor will front the campaign for the company’s latest men’s fragrance Orange and Orlando is excited about his new role: “Boss Orange is a brand I immediately identified with because it has a laid-back, spontaneous quality I relate to.”
Sienna Miller is the face of the women’s version of the scent, which was launched last year and has become a huge success.
This is not Orlando’s first foray into modeling. In 2007, he appeared on late-night Japanese TV to promote the Uno brand of cosmetics maker Shiseido, with a two-minute Sci-Fi themed commercial to start the product’s marketing campaign.

Crystal Renn Disappears in Fashion for Passion Campaign
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Health & Beauty, Models, News, Rumors,
Can you spot plus-size model Cyrstal Renn in these photos? Yeah, I didn’t think so. This may be the first time that I’m actually hoping that the photo editors were a little click-happy when it came to this campaign for Fashion for Passion, photographed by Nicholas Routzen.
For a model who has been heralded as the forerunner for plus-size models in high fashion, she sure doesn’t look like it! Still ever so gorgeous, she looks half the size she did at the Chanel Cruise Show.
What do you think of Renn’s magical weight loss?
