Supermodels Without Makeup: Louis Vuitton Cast Shots Revealed (PHOTO)

First Posted: 06/29/2010 5:12 am   Updated: 05/25/2011 4:20 pm

Love magazine recently posted this picture of Louis Vuitton's Fall-Winter 2010 show cast, featuring its 50 or so models (including Elle Macpherson, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Bar Refaeli, Adriana Lima, Laetitia Casta, Lara Stone and Coco Rocha) without makeup--a veritable celebration of the fresh-faced look.

Also: See Heidi Klum without makeup.

However, while we are rejoicing, the majority male audience at Reddit had some harsh words for the bevy of beauties, like, "Seriously, though--how many of them have enormous foreheads and huge eyes? A lot of them are not attractive sans makeup. Their faces look smooshed; they're too damn skinny. Put down the coke straw and eat a cheeseburger, ladies!" and the more poetic "coke, coke, coke ,coke, heroine, coke, heroine, heeeey that one is smiling..., coke, heroine, heroine, coke, ..."

It is so easy to distinguish the sexy Victoria Secret models from the edgy high-fashion runway girls. The sexy bunch are tanner, poutier, chestier, and have a sexier or playful look in their eyes. The edgy girls are what the fashion industry is all about these days - super pale, super skinny, super young, super dispensable, super flat-chested, super mysterious, and not most people's idea of a super model.
As far as makeup goes, if you don't have a beautiful face, no amount of make up is going to make you beautiful. It will only accentuate or play down your features, which could make you seem more attractive by society's ever-changing standards. But to think that supermodels or actresses are born with lipstick and mascara permanently attached to their face (if that is what you consider beauty in the first place) is plain preposterous.

It's funny but the one who looks the best is the one who looks comforatble just being her, the last one who is smiling.

These are not supermodels, hp headline writer person. Big difference, makeup or not.

Tyra Bank's show has taken any mystique out of the notion that models are beautiful. They just have fantastic make-up artists and hair stylists - not to mention amazing photographers. So yes, they're surrounded by professionals whose only aim is to make them look fantastic. Good bones never go out of fashion - but, as Tyra has shown, some really strange looking girls can look outrageously fabulous through the lens of a professional!

Well what would you say the definition of beautiful is? I think more than what you're saying, TBanks has shown that being traditionally mall-girl pretty isn't the only kind of beauty.

No denying these ladies have nice bone structure but they look like bobble heads (heads too big for their bodies) because they're far too thin!

I was thinking the same things. They look very bizarre.

I know models are an easy target, but the fact is no woman looks as good without her make-up. Looking closely at these pictures, it's obvious to me these models have very good features and bone structure, which are then enhanced by make-up. If make-up didn't make most women look better, they wouldn't go to the trouble and expense to use it, obviously. I do agree, however, that a lot of these women look dangerously thin. This is not their fault; this is demanded of them by the fashion industry. I doubt most of these women would be this thin if their paychecks didn't depend on it.

With a very few exceptions, they all looks like aliens - "Greys" or something. They're all members of the Asgard High Council from Stargate.
