Flickr Link. I gotta say, the breasts are a little large, I don't think they quite got the parody down yet. (thanks, Glenn "Instapundit" Reynolds)

    She could miss a meal or two.

    What’s with all the scare quotes in Cory’s article? Has the Guardian given up on italics?

  • moop2000

    We all know that Ralph Lauren is just working towards perfecting truly two dimensional models. I mean, they’ve already achieved great success with their model’s attitudes and facial expressions. All that’s left is their bodies!

  • mypalmike

    Talk about sharp knees!

  • lyd

    Where the lizard women at?

  • scifijazznik

    Finally something I can fap to.

  • greengestalt

    A few days ago, there was a fiery debate over the article, “They Shoot Porn Stars, don’t they?”

    I think that the “High Fashion” industry does far more damage to women’s self esteem, relationships with men and health than tons of filth movies and porno magazines.

  • Doug Nelson

    This was obviously altered before it was uploaded to Flickr. Leave RL alone!

    • Doug Nelson

      Interesting formatting note. Don’t put asides in the little pointed brackets (the ones over the comma an period, I don’t know their actual name). They don’t appear in the final post.

    Obviously photoshopped. No model has boobs that big…

  • glib909

    Need to make a parroty with overused pinch filter.

    • scifijazznik

      You mean like she’s pinin’ for the fjords?

  • jfrancis

    …with her proportions digitally altered so that “her pelvis was bigger than her head.”

    I think your Guardian article meant that the other way around.
