'Meeeh...she's 'commercial'' and 'mmmm Soooo High Fashion OMG!'

Howdy again :)

So Ive been wanting to write a few words on that for a long time now and thought heck why not today while Im at it lol ! So here ya go...

Again, people who are into fashion and models probably will get me better but I dont set any limits, its for all thinking people with common sense :)

Ask anyone from tFS forum and they will tell you, yes its like that : 'high fashion (HF)' models are waaay more popular and loved there then so-called 'commercial'. Same about fashion and not-so-fashion companies and its ads.

Every member who thinks to know it all about 'real fashion' by ALL means at least once made a remark there : meh, she is that kind, you know, 'commercial' eeek...According such members commercial are ...actually some of my all time fave models ( Marisa Miller, Alessandra Ambrosio, partly now also Doutzen Kroes...) So no wonder ( although a total pity and a shame !) that for instance 'Marisa Miller' thread is not 'so super dooper popular' there then, say, of a 'oh so HF model Lily Donaldson'. Almost noone except for me ( obviously why i do that since Marisa is my number one always and forever, shes just ...!!! :))) and randomly a couple of 'my friends' who post there, almost noone else does. Okay, even 'my friends' may post to kind of support 'my model' since I do 'support ' theirs so thanks for that too lol. But aint it sad how it is with that commercial- HF dividing there...Maaaan....this is truly sad....

... And just so hypocritical !

Take Gisele Bundchen. Emotions apart, she did and is doing tons of commercial stuffs, but none calls her 'meee so commercial its not even funny' kinda model. Same goes for Hilary Rhoda, for instance who I immensely like and adore but she scored a cool deal with Estee Lauder ( come on EL is NOT HF okay...lol) and does catalogues nowdays too and models lingerie for ERES. But noone calls her 'meeeeh shes sooooooo commercial'. As if 'commercial' a something abusive nowadays !!!! Come on !

But 'poor' Doutzen Kroes ! As soon as she became a VS Angel, there was such a panic and absurdness in her tFS thread, some so-called 'fans of her' were whining and critisizing her and VS the 'harshest' words because of that lol... Of course, they want their models to be 'mmmm Sooo HF OMG' and earn just little money here and little money there but being 'OOOOOH so HF!' and make their 'fans' happy lol. Cause everyone in the fashion world knows that big money come with big campaigns, exactly - working with or for 'commercial' companies.

Lets see how one of the tFS moderators described commercial and HF :


Hmm, if we follow this logic, then ...Marisa Miller is ' OMG HF ' !!!! No kidding, people. Because Marisa was (and is) in many editorials ( she was in 'VOGUE' US too if it plays such a great role for ya !) and she did her fair share of the runway work too ! Yes, nowadays, she is 'mostly' known for her works with VS Angel and as SISE covergirl ( but its more then that) , so to be more exact she is ...BOTH : 'commercial' and 'high fashion'. Whether you like or not lol.

But nah...most tFS members dont even bother to think that over, they just curse ' oh gosh, shes commercial' and blindly adore their 'HF idols'.

Oh and dont even ask me what most tFS (I dont say all, there are surely a few members like me who see the WHOLE situation and are not fashion hypocrits lol but many many are...whaddaya want, its tFS after all ! ) say about famous 'Victorias Secret'. Ooooh, bro, theres a lot. LOL Starting with calling the company a 'piece of sh***' ( no, its not moderated there, you can say as harsh as you please lol) and 'only for celebs/commercial/crap/etc'. LOL Ahh boy, at least I totally get a kick out of such 'clever' posts.

I capped some 'clever sayings' of one of the members on that, I just had to, sorry, its too funny lol...my comments are in pink color :

(VS fashion show thread is started a month before the show and- what a surprise!- even 'true HF followers' check it oh so often and even post there lol hmm...and I thought its 'nothing but crap' lol)



So yeah, hypocrisy and idiotism is flowering on tFS in face of some members like the above one.

God, his posts dont even make any sense sometimes ! And this is not funny now. But luckily, as I always say, your posts speak about you louder then about the subject in your posts.

And as for VS, yes it HAS to do with fashion - IMO. Of course its not 'Prada' or 'Christian Lacroix', but :

~ they ONLY use MODELS to model their lingerie and clothing, swimwear, shoes, etc. ( alone for that I have a huge respect for VS, I am so sick of seeing celebrities stealing real models' work nowadays...)

~ VS invents new kinds of fabrics, new kinds of bras, there are new technologies and new lingerie design if you will

~ VS follows fashion (Ooooh so HF lol) trends in lingerie and clothing as well as shoes and all too and tries to create smth new themselves according the latest trends in fashion

~ And its undeniable that for ANY model ( HF or not) being casted for VSFS (vs fashion show) is HUGE and plays a BIG role for the models career and to deny that is simply plain dumb.

And just for those who dont know, to put it simple lol: 'commercial' models also said to be those pretty or beautiful models with healthy slim but curvy bodies who are making a nice sum of money and 'high fashion' models are those ugly (pardon me for this word), stick-thin, many with 'scary' faces models who are earning not so much money.

And before I make a full stop at that, isnt it sad that on such a huge fashion forum as tFS the majority of members has NO freakin idea that Fashion is NOT just 'ohhh so HF models and ooohh, verrsaaaccceee OMG! Vogue !' but all the 'commercial crap' - as they say- too ! Fashion is soooo much more then just a Gucci bag or a scary/plain/boring face of a HF model.

And with that, thanks for being with me and have a great week !
