Modeling is dead and has been for years.

I feel like over the past 12 or so years modeling (especially high fashion) has been completely ruined.

To be called a model you used to have to be HYPER attractive, tall, and well built and it seems the only criteria now is that you have to be somewhat tall.

They celebrate uniqueness over appeal and it’s actual modeling brainrot. Here’s one of many examples.

Lindsey Wixson - More recent, completely fucked maxilla

Valaria Mazza - 90’s model, Stacy with no visible flaws.


Where did we go wrong?

All of it is dependent on the genre of modeling, most models were never hyper attractive

Also worth adding it was never about appeal or uniqueness, it's about memorability, people with fucked up weird faces are memorable, that's all a brand needs

In that case why don’t they have models with disabilities. Missing arms/legs, downs etc

Because they'd rather celebrate fat black niggers with orange hair, for diversity and all that

And they do have some disabled models, like amputee ones, wheelchair ones, etc.

God everyone is mentally ill. I personally would rather see Stacy do runway than Fiona.
