"If there's a secret to her look, it is maintaining a steely resistance to trends. Her current no-no? Tapered jeans. ""Much as I like the way they look on women with long legs, my body does not look appropriate in tapered jeans. I have a long torso.""
(the quote is on the third page, in the second paragraph)

Definitely deserves to be on here. Its good to know that so many people disagree or don't see it. Kind of encouraging actually.
ReplyDeleteI've seen in different magazine spreads of her - almost semi naked, in lingerie, and I just don't see it. I think she has a longer torso, yes, but she seems very well balanced to me.
ReplyDeleteShe just doesn't have a Gisele Bundchen type frame. And, most startlets and fashion people are always aiming with their clothing choices to make legs look longer, because clothes hang better. It's more elegant. No one wants to look short and squat, do they? And almost anyone can look bad with the right clothes.
I've been running across pictures of Bar Refaeli, and it seems like she has proportionally short legs too. Plus, she is curvy and pretty darn good looking.
ReplyDeleteSeriously? Can you point us to some pictures of Bar Rafaeli having proportionally short legs?
ReplyDeleteInteresting, I will look into Bar Rafaeli, I especially like to include models on this blog. Thanks for the tip.
ReplyDeleteAlso I love the first anonymous comment, thanks.
here is some of my evidence for Bar:

Thank you Anonymous from today, these photos are solid proof indeed, thank you I will use them.
ReplyDeleteI don't know if you will post about Indian models, but here is a very well known Indian model called Deepika Padukone. She is 5'9, and to me she looks like she has a very long torso and shorter legs. Here is one picture: http://www.sawf.org/Newsphotos/Bollywood/Deepika_Padukone_Saif_Ali_Khan_10Jun09B.JPG
ReplyDeleteI am sorry that it has taken me so long to reply, however I looked up Deepika, and does not look out of proportion to me. She appears normal.
