A break down of a Victoria's Secret catalog. It's not as overdone as I expected.

I worked at the major printing house where Playboy was/is printed, and you would not BELIEVE the files of a lot of the celebrities published there. The difference was night and day in terms of slimming middles and limbs and enhancing breasts and erasing marks on skin. A lot of the younger women's photos were like the VS pictures and didn't seem incredibly different - just touches up here and there and enhancements here and there. But famous people? Most of them didn't look ANYTHING like the published pictures.

I just want to know when anyone would want 'less defined abs'?? I get making things look 'better' but I had no idea a smoother stomach was more desirable than ab muscles.

I agree with you, this is not nearly as bad as I would have expected. I think I'm just inured to a certain level of photoshopping in all images I see. To be honest, what bugs me more is that they blatantly change details of the clothing, like removing straps. This seems dishonest when the point of these ads is to sell said clothing.

That's a whole lot of effort for very little gain

I can barely see the difference in some of these, but at least now I understand why the models always seem more uplifted in strapless tops!

The removal of the straps is somewhat misleading:(. What bothers me is that the original photos are gorgeous and it's so disappointing that such minor things are airbrushed. The models become so "perfect" relateability is almost impossible.
