Something's Not Right

Feb 19, 2008 @ 12:29pm

We were browsing Jourdan Dunn's pictures on Style.com this weekend.

Jourdan does Henry Holland, Jourdan walks Marc Jacobs, Jourdan gets her make-up done.

Oh, wait...that's not Jourdan. That's Chanel Iman.

Funny they can tell the difference between Sasha P. and Gemma, but not between Chanel's Teen Vogue cover face and one of the most striking girls we've seen in awhile.

Just saying...

Yeah.. you should never take style.com as absolute truth. From the Chloe S/S 07 show they have Natasha Poly listed as Lily Donaldson. I wrote an email explaining thus, but it still hasn't been changed.

Style.com is notorious for mislabeling models. Suvi Kopoenen was mistakenly labeled as Alana Zimmer, and they look nothing alike. This is far from the first time they have named models incorrectly.

could natasha poly and lily donaldson look any more different??!! lily is (i think) one of the prettiest models ever (not on the inside though, if you get my gist), and natasha is like, the ugliest.

honestly, on the runway, a lot of the models look the same. I can't tell the difference between some of the white girls either if they're styled the same. These two don't look very similar to me. Bt the website should get it right. That is a terrible picture of Chanel, BTW. Do her some justice.

that is almost as annoying after the dior couture show where they tagged agyness and hilary rhoda, only to break my heart five hours later revealing them as a pair of unpronounceables instead

I noticed that a few days ago and I found it quite irritating as well, however no one should be burned at the stake here. At least they didn't have Jourdan Dunn as the capiton. Now that would have been awful.

gemma and sasha look similiar and so do jourdan and chanel. its not ridiculous. its not shameful. its what happens when you try identifying and labeling hundreds of girls in a period of a few hours when these shows are going on. you should have more important things to worry about than mixed up models. relax.

how dare they mix-up these models?!?!?! MODELS!?!?! like, the best, most creative and most intelligent people on earth. what would happen if a meteor were to strike Earth? Surely, they'd send all the models into a big shelter somewhere in the Ural mountains and create a superbreed.
