Controversy is simply a side effect and a means to an end (more exposure, more $). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/interesting-if-maybe-controversial-photo-shoot#post-275471 Thu, 06 Jan 2011 02:00:26 +0000 Aida 275471@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Probably doesn't help that girls at a young age want to look older as soon as possible (I was completely oblivious to this as a kid, though), correlating I'm sure with ads featuring younger and younger women/girls.</p> <p>A lot of the photographers view the shoots as art, and if it's not controversial how will they know it's good? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/interesting-if-maybe-controversial-photo-shoot#post-275465 Thu, 06 Jan 2011 01:38:26 +0000 hanna 275465@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>ugh, not a fan. even when it comes to ads for kid clothing, i always get really repulsed by the children that look like mini adults, as opposed to looking like actual children. as lisa says, they're CHILDREN. why pile on the years before they're ready? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/interesting-if-maybe-controversial-photo-shoot#post-275455 Thu, 06 Jan 2011 01:25:05 +0000 annagybe 275455@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can't remember if it was French Vogue or Vogue Paris that did a photo shoot with oil soaked rocks on a beach during the height of the Gulf spill. I think you're right Jonesy that they like to push buttons. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/interesting-if-maybe-controversial-photo-shoot#post-275452 Thu, 06 Jan 2011 01:20:37 +0000 Jonesy 275452@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmmm...the commentary supplied by the Jezebel writer (Jezebel is a feminist site, just in case anyone doesn't know that suggests that the photo spread is meant to be a critique of the industry-wide practice of using very young teens as models, dressing them up/making them up as women, then selling us (as adult women) these images as aspirational. But, I'm not sure that that's what the mag was going for--perhaps just controversy? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/interesting-if-maybe-controversial-photo-shoot#post-275448 Thu, 06 Jan 2011 01:17:24 +0000 Lisa 275448@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not a fan, let children stay children, not rush them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/interesting-if-maybe-controversial-photo-shoot#post-275439 Thu, 06 Jan 2011 00:50:35 +0000 Tara 275439@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Two words: JonBenet Ramsey.</p> <p>I absolutely hate this. While the poses may not be overly sexual the come hither looks, very adult makeup and clothing screams sex. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/interesting-if-maybe-controversial-photo-shoot#post-275428 Thu, 06 Jan 2011 00:24:16 +0000 annagybe 275428@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What struck me was that they all had perfect eyebrows. Small weird detail that I picked up. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/interesting-if-maybe-controversial-photo-shoot#post-275427 Thu, 06 Jan 2011 00:21:35 +0000 chewyspaghetti 275427@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Uh oh!<br /> I actually don't have a problem with this. It's like little girls playing dress up, and none of the outfits/poses looks particularly seductive to me. Of course, I reserve the right to change my mind at any time!
