Apologies for the low resolution. It was a mobile ad and all I could get was a screenshot.
The guy doesn’t look much better, just drowned in a suit
Looking at other photos though Prada seem to prefer models this skinny
The ad aside, I just don’t understand the appeal of paying $3,000 for a handbag when a $20 handbag will can do just the same thing. The only thing I can think of is people think they look cool or rich or better if they have a Prada handbag, but frankly, who gives a shit what kind of bag someone has? And second of all, if I saw you with one I wouldn’t think you are cool at all. I would think you’re the dumbest person alive.
The fashion industry is simply saving money on fabrics by using smaller, thinner models that don’t require as much material to clothe.

Right?
TBH that statement rings true. It’s so much easier to make a fit look good if you’re skinny. Also, when you’re doing a photoshoot there’s always the possibility of the model bailing at the last minute. So, to keep the photoshoot going with another model you don’t need to keep multiple sizes just slap that clothing on and use clips to make it fit nice.
Also this is anecdotal, my partner is 5’5 and weighs 90 lbs and it’s so easy for them to make an outfit it’s crazy.
Looks anorexic to me. Hope they are fine
I looked a lot like that as a teenager while going through some growth spurts. I ate like an elephant (1990s taco tuesdays at Taco Bell we’d each get a 12 pack after school), but I was still 150-160 at 6’3” (60 something kilos and 190something cm).
This person might be a little lighter, but I couldn’t put on muscle to save my life back then. Not till I was in my 20s did I get above 170.
Edit: forgot how to divide by 2.2…
but I was still 150-160 at 6’3” (30something kilos and 190something cm).
150-160 lbs is definitely not “30 something kilos”. It’s more than double that, around 70 kg. Just FYI or for any other weird-unit users out there who aren’t familiar with standard kg. 😅
When I read 190cm and 30kg, I was kinda shocked
That would look like a skeleton, I’m pretty sure. 😅
Body image issues aside, I just could not imagine going through life with so little upper and lower body strength. Just seems so impractical and inconvenient to choose to be this way.
I agree completely. Same with the long fingernails and huge boob implants! Why would you choose to make yourself more useless? It seems so silly…
Low self-esteem is gonna do that to you.
This isn’t mild.
Macaulay Culkin been through some shit.
You cannot tell me that dude (duddette?) doesn’t have an eating disorder. That looks sickly and horrible.
I used to look like that from ages 15 to 30. I was eating 6000 calories a day to maintain my weight. I don’t know about that dude (dude is gender neutral), but it is possible they are struggling to not lose weight. Unlikely, but possible.
You’re either lying on the Internet (impossible!) or you had some serious disease that you failed to mention in your comment. Mitchell Hooper, weighing around 140 kg, was eating around 5500 kcal when he won worlds strongest man.
No illness. Just unlucky. Why would use use a world class body builder, literally the most exceptional human to ever exist as your point of comparison? That’s like saying anyone could play Conan the Barbarian if they just toned up a little.
No, you’re missing the point. Point is that even 500kcal less than your claimed daily intake will put into a 100++kg body weight, even if you’re an elite athlete.
Unless you eat like Askeladden, there is absolutely zero chance you were eating anywhere close to 6000kcal a day if you didn’t have medical condition that tampered with your intake.
Don’t spread misinformation, especially about a topic that is already so heavily mired with it.
Except I was and I did. It’s not misinformation. It’s experience. But thanks for trying to invalidate 15 years of my life with zero information other than a basic understanding of calories and not figuring in any other metabolic factors.
So you don’t know how to count calories. Just say that.
Except I did. If I got behind I would lose pounds.
Someone feed that boi
Girl, but okay.
Joke but okay. Also way to assume a person’s identity
She’s modelling for the women’s section of the Prada website, so it’s reasonably safe to assume she is a woman.
Always bad to assume gender of course, but “boi” is also often used by women with a meaning similar to “tom boy”, or “butch”, or just a woman who presents more masculine than average. Anyway, I don’t know who the model is or their preferences, just wanted to clarify the term that was used is used by several genders, most of whom are not men.
And many women find being referred to as boi to be incredibly insulting. Especially if they are more androgynous, and it’s often used as an insult against them.
And when the model is specifically modelling for the women’s section of a store, is is pretty safe to assume gender. It is highly unlikely someone would model for a gender they aren’t.
Hope there is a double cheeseburger in that purse…is this a starving child in Africa or something? I’ll fuck with em on a big Mac combo, poor lil fella 😔
Is that Tim or Eric?
why not? those people exist too. This is skinny-phobic behavior.
