Model Talk | Wild Things (or models without makeup) ph. Douglas Perrett



Sempre tive um enorme fascínio por polaroids
Adoro a forma como parecem capturar a alma das pessoas,
adoro ver os rostos sem retoques, mais próximos daquilo que realmente somos...

Por esse motivo, adorei conhecer as imagens do "Wild Things", 
o livro de Douglas Perrett, famoso director de castings
que contém as primeiríssimas polaroids de alguns dos modelos 
que singraram no mundo da moda nos últimos 10 anos.
É engraçado conhecer os rostos antes da fama, quando ainda davam os primeiros passos inseguros!

Gostei também de conhecer algumas das primeiras impressões de Douglas Perrett
de algumas das modelos mais bem sucedidas de hoje, como a Miranda Kerr: 
"She would always do her castings with her blonde friend, 
another Aussie who would always get the job. She never booked the jobs."
e a Candice Swanepoel "Didn't like her; Found her very Barbie-like."
que nos mostram que na moda, como na vida, muitas vezes somos recusados
e temos de ter força para continuar a lutar pelos nossos sonhos!

Também gostam de ver fotos de modelos sem maquilhagem?
Gostaram de conhecer este trabalho? Podem ver ainda mais fotos aqui.

I've always loved polas. They show everybody's true essence
and for me they're the closest thing to capture someones soul!

That's why I adored Douglas Perrett book "Wild Things"
which showcases some of today's most famous models first polaroids!
I found it refreshing to see all those young makeup-less faces,
still innocent and awkwardly trying to find a place in the industry!
And, let's face it, with makeup or not, they were all babes even then!
*Sigh*

A great Sunday to all of you!

Model Talk | My top 9 favorite male models


collage by me

Meninos bonitos. Meninos bonitos everywhereÉ o que me apraz dizer enquanto olho para esta colagem!
Depois de vos ter mostrado as minhas 10 modelos favoritas, aqui ficam os meus XY de eleição!
Só agora que os vejo lado-a-lado, é que percebo quão parecidos são!
Lábios mais ou menos carnudos, olhos rasgados e faces alongadas!
Houston, I believe we have a pattern here! ;)

Gostam de algum deles? Qual é o vosso favorito?

*******

Pretty boys. Pretty boys everywhere.
After my 10 favorite models list, I had to came up with a male one!
Strangely enough, I only came to the realization that they're quite similar when I saw this collage!
Luscious lips, deep eyes and elongated faces!
Houston, I believe we have a pattern here! ;)

Do you like them? Who's your favorite?
