The photos may seem sad because they are black and white and because it’s hard to make Kate smile. It’s like a trend in the UK not to smile.

If Kate is lonely that’s mostly her fault and no need to do a photoshot to tell us about that. She is a grown up woman with a little girl and she should know that being drunk all the time won’t bring her happiness.

Those photos look rather depressing. I’m not sure how it represents Women’s Day, because that’s not how I think women should be portrayed (personally) – at least not completely.

You’re right Adriana, there are more pictures in the series, only they weren’t in this site’s ethic, exposing a little more than we’re committed to show here. I believed it was the look of an independent as in not tied down, not settled down, it’s my fault for not being clearer on that point.

When looking at a pretty picture, nobody asks what the model’s education level is. If their own ambition leads them to drugs instead of books, it’s their choice.

Sadly enough I’ve come across this kind of declaration on the internet. I was left at first reacting like you, acidhorse and then a wave of indignation filled my head and even if I thought I have had my share of fashion photography for the week, I decided showing the pictures and asking opinions, expressing my disappointment in people’s reaction to Hedi Slimane’s pictures.

Showing flesh after a certain age raises concerns? Oh my…

I’ve seen some other ones too from this serie. Didn’t know though these were made by Hedi Slimane. So these were meant for March 8th International Women’s Day? I’m not a prude, I’m not easily shocked either, but I can’t see in this shoot any celebration about being a woman. She shows some flesh but hides her face? I find the shoot sad too and this doesn’t show an independent woman to me at all. (La Moss, if we have to believe gossip stories seems not even to be able to take care of her child or can do simple things as paying her bills – that’s what happens when you’re a star a 15 and has no education or has lived a normal life ever but that’s another story……)
