ANTM Interpretation


Cycle 6 of America’s Next Top Model featured a photo shoot in which the models were transformed into fairy tale characters and asked to pose whilst falling. Personally I don’t particularly like any of these images in the context of being a modern interpretation of the tales. I feel that too much emphasis is placed on costume in order to indicate which character the model is representing. Hair is given a little consideration for a few of the models, however, I feel that in some instances, especially the image depicting ‘Gretel’ the hair makes the overall look seem very tacky. Make-up has been given little to no consideration whatsoever and I feel that this is the downfall of the photographs that prevent them from looking like editorial or fashion images.
