She is everywhere. After an amazing 2009, she is forcing the industry to rethink their aesthetic ideal. I got to admit, she has spectacular breasts, something that is rarely seen on the high fashion circuit. There is an obsession with the hanger body because it is the easiest to dress; however, there is some change (as little as it is) with that mentality. Of course designers are still casting girlish figures but they are beginning to consider women too. Women who don’t necessarily fit the sample size of 0, which quite frankly is ridiculous. Women who are supposed to be 5’8 -6’0 should not be size 0. In any case, she looks fit and amazing. And perfectly healthy, which is the more important thing. I’m afraid she doesn’t do much but stand there and look amazing, but with her nothing else really needs to be done. This simplicity suits the restrained chic of the clothes. Also, I really like that cut out swimsuit (although the tan lines would drive me nuts)
