Anja Rubik | David Bailey | i-D Winter 2011 | Let's Warm Up

Note | Nudity For a second time this week, we have an athletic editorial that feels like the ‘Arthur Elgort’ Pirelli woman. Anja Rubik is photographed by David Bailey in the winter 2011 i-D, styled gym-ready in Adidas, Céline, Marni and Opening Ceremony by fashion editor Charlotte Stockdale.

We note that Vogue Italia did pull one of this week’s Steven Meisel’s Karlie Kloss images after push back that she appeared distorted, over-photoshopped and anoxeric. The comments at Fashionista agree with our response to the editorial.

First of all Karlie Kloss looked healthy and fit at the recent Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show and in the Vogue Italia ‘Body By Kloss’ editorial. Anja scared (repulsed, to be honest) us at VS in a way that these images do not.

Fit and very thin is different than anorexia. Having said this, we continue to see a more diverse range of body types in fashion editorial — as long as the models are healthy and fit. Anne
