The frightening appearance of the new model of the Chanel fashion house amazed everyone
Chanel fashion house is a symbol of elegance, impeccable taste and femininity. Of course, the best models were always selected for the shows. But lately, either the meaning of the word "best" has changed, or it's time to experiment, but the girls representing the brand's clothes on the catwalk are increasingly different from the standards we are familiar with. Everyone was especially impressed by the new model of the house - the young and sweet Molly Bair from Pennsylvania, USA, obviously embodying the tolerance of the fashion house.
Of course, 17-year-old American Molly Bair is not to blame that her appearance does not fit into the classic canons of beauty. And even more so, you can't blame her for wanting to become a model, like many other girls. But the logic of Chanel experts conducting auditions is very difficult to understand.
Online, Molly is compared to a rat, an alien and Gollum from the Lord of the Rings saga. Of course, this is unpleasant, but Bair herself has never experienced any special illusions about her appearance. In an interview with journalists, she says that she is surprised that a skinny girl with glasses, with fused eyebrows and protruding ears turned out to be so in demand in the world of high fashion.
And Molly is really a very popular model and her contract with Chanel is not her first. Prior to that, the girl worked with the fashion houses Maison Margiela, Marc Jacobs and Fendi, starred for famous glossies and in commercials.
At the same time, it is clearly noticeable that if Molly is well made up and combed, then, although she does not look beautiful, she no longer makes a frightening impression on the viewer.
But Chanel, obviously, needs exactly that infernal image of Bair, in which she now appears at fashion shows. On the Internet, as one would expect, they do not skimp on comparisons and offensive jokes.
Molly is far from the only example of how fashion houses are trying to get away from canonical beauty standards and show their tolerance.
A lot of questions were raised by the Issa Lish model, who was also suspected of being transgender.
And also Kelly Mittendorf, who is still a fatal beauty. Is it worth talking about the most shocking model in the world, Melanie Gaydos, who is in great demand not only in the fashion industry, but also in show business.
