Even More Skinny Models On The Runway
October 5th, 2009 by Rian | Filed under Models & Supermodels, Scary Skinny, Skinny Celebrities.Models, models everywhere…! Here’s another set of photos of some random super-skinny models walking the runway. These girls are from the Dries Van Noten & Sonia Rykiel shows for Paris Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2010…

(Is anyone else wondering how they hold themselves up on such teeny-tiny legs?!)
First! Wow, they look sooo thin!
Oh my the second one’s face is well hidden through the sunglasses but she still looks like a guy.
Too skinny, not attractive imo. The girl in the third photo looks like an elf.
Second!!!!
Ok, not second :0
The fourth one is beat
I guess the other photos didn’t show up when I first saw them, so the girl wearing the white shirt & orange bottoms looks like an elf
The girls in the second and third picture look great. And Freja of course
Valentina, I did actually add in the other photos after publishing the original post.
I am so irritated by the whole industry of modeling. I hate how shocking and unusual it is to see a model who is actually in a healthy weight range. I hate how abnormally, unnaturally SKINNY most runway models are. I hate how its so glamorized and encouraged, pressuring so many young and beautiful women into making themselves sick to look this way.
now THIS is called scary skinny
Wowza. I’m sorry, but I can’t help but be impressed. Yeah I’m whats wrong with the society soz.
And the clothes look nice *at least some* for a change
They are certainly skinny. The one in yellow looks like 13 years old! They look skinny but not scary skinny. The worst thing about these skinny girls is their necks look sunken in and gross.
let me tell you why they look so skinny, these girls are super tall which gives the tricky effect that they are anorexic when in fact they are perfectly fine.
bones bones bones!!!
I don’t like these bodies anymore. Though they look frail and delicate, there’s nothing cute or graceful about them. I’m happy to be slightly shorter and meatier.
Any guesses as to their BMIs?
Wow they are so tiny!! It may look good on the runway, but they look severly under weight.
I guess bmi about 18
I am totally jealous! Oh to be able to look like a clothes hanger. LAME!
I come to the Skinnywebsite to get the skinny on the skinnies
hooray! i love karlie kloss. i think they look fabulous and i like this show…interesting colors & prints.
I went to school with the model in the 3rd photo, and she’s always been very thin. Think she’s one of the best models out there at the moment!
@ henriette
what did she have in her brown bag lunch?
was it leverpostej?
Not liking these twigs at all!! I don’t even want to look at the clothes– Isn’t that the whole idea behind choosing a model who will make the clothes look terrific??
perfect!!
I don’t think there is anything wrong with women naturally this thin, but I really feel bad for those that take it too far. Freja and Karlie are my fave =D
I could use a toothpick right now!!
I bet they all shared one grape for lunch. Gross.
freja beha is so beautiful, such a decent model
Ok. They look great. Great!
okay..they dont look that bad, i think some of them are naturaly skinny so dont judge thi and they are starving or something like that uuuu just dont know!!!!!!
*say
just not attractive to me. weight-wise and otherwise.
I wish I could have any of their bodies. They look great
They are really tall and wearing heels so that will obviously make them look quite slim but without a doubt they are all clearly underweight. It’s painful to look at because I could never support myself on those tiny little legs. My calves are probably bigger than their thighs, ha.
These models finally really skinny as models should be. The models before were much more healthier.
No way their bmis are 18. Mine is 18 and I don’t look as skinny. I think their bmis are 16-15.
maybe bmi 17…-15 is waaay underweight!!!
its scarying me that i dont find these models as ’scary skinny’
they all look like they are dying of cancer or something. i just want to feed them
Mine is 17.3 and I look a lot bigger. They are probably at 16-16.5
Thin, but there are many girls on the catwalk that are much skinnier.
my BMI is 19 and i am the same size, and am 5′10, 34-23-35. i am pretty toned .
differences in size at the same BMI depend on body fat distribution and muscle mass. also, taller people look leaner than a shorter person with the same BMI. if you don’t believe it, 8′1″, 550lb zhao liang, BMI 41. look him up. if he was average height with the same proportions (not the same BMI) his BMI would be far lower. probably around 23ish. beth ditto is 5′2 with the same BMI. i know she is a woman, but a guy with the same BMI/average height wouldn’t be that much smaller. of course the difference between a 5′10 woman and 5′4 woman isn’t as big as that, but there is still a difference between two BMI 25 people those heights. same with any BMI.
anyway most of the people i know whose BMI is 17-19 are the same size as those models. the people i know whose BMI is 15-16 are a fair bit smaller. even though they are shorter
Wow they look amazing!
LOVE the 4th outfit. It is the best one. I like the 6th and 7th outfits too.
they actaully dont look that bad, but number one the camera adds ten pounds and the outfits are frumpy and hide alot so its hard to tell. and mayb its just cuz i expect them to b this thin. somehow i feel like if i saw them in real life i would b more shocked to their looks
****am i the only one annoyed by people posting their own stats on the wall and especailly when their obviously fake stats?
i’m a 22 year old guy from huntington beach and i accidentally stumbled on this site. anyway i can tell you, these models might not have fantastic bodies (they are OK, def above average, and they have great legs), but too thin (not anorexic thin. anorexic being you can count all their ribs when they are standing up normally with arms at the sides) will win out over fat 95% of the time. these chicks arent ano, they’re just really thin.
let me tell you, the average guy would rather date a 5′9 size 2 girl than a 5′4 size 14 girl. sorry but no matter what anyone says, skinny is way better than fat. if any of you girls disguised yourself as a guy or w/e then asked random guys what they thought, thats what they would tell you. the only reason they tell you they like curves is because you have different reproductive organs to them. (and when we say curves we mean eva mendes, beyonce at the biggest, not a size 14. from what i’ve gathered on average height 5′4, no bigger than size 6 please. 0 isn’t even that skinny. i was hanging out with friends and us guys were going on about how size 0 must be seriously anorexic. then one of our female friends, who was there, who has FANTASTIC, AMAZING curves, not even that skinny, just thin, told us to shut up because she was a size 0. she was like 5′3 i think)
the camera doesn’t add 10lb, 20lb or 2lb.. most of the people i know, they look the same in photos as they do in real life (except some people’s faces look different). people just dont want to acknowledge they are fatter than they think, or that they gained weight, or whatever.
and justathought, one of my ex girlfriends was like 130lb and 5′9 and i think she was 35-24-36. she always used to go on about needing another inch up top. thats how i knew her measurements. you dont need to be anorexic or 4′2 to have a 24″ waist.
yeah so most people are probably jealous of these chicks coz they aren’t fat and covered in rolls and cellulite. but look on the bright side, they have only slightly above average faces.
BTW: i am 175lb, 6′3 and have a body fat percentage of 8, meaning i am muscular but not like huge or anything, i have a 6 pack, and take care of myself and eat healthy. even guys i know who are fat like skinny girls better but in their case its a double standard.
i do wonder how they get those teeny tiny legs… and i want them teeny tiny legs.
Meh, they look average to me. The first one has nice legs though.
i have to say, do what you wish with your body, but this puts me off wanting to be that skinny as i would have once used to. I mean no offence but most of those girls don’t exactly look beautiful.
yes, I do wonder how they balance on those legs?
I find those bodies so unattractive!
I couple of pounds and the girls would be (even more) gorgeous!
Healthy BMI, my ass. Do those industry people just not see how emaciated these girls are? Why are they still perpetuating this phenomenon? It just vexes me so much. My sister can’t stop yammering on about how she wants to be skinny like them.
Everyone on this site needs to read the book “Hungry” by Crystal Renn. She’s a model and discusses how it affected her to try to keep her body unnaturally thin. It will give everyone a new perspective on what we do to our bodies just for appearances sake. I HIGHLY recommended it to the weight obsessed.
No way is their BMI 18-19 specially considering that they are underage, more likely 15-16 or on some cases 17.
damn. i used to be ana and these girls are freaking me out ha.
and you know they’re even skinnier in person. nasty.
@ Mark, we know you are a female trying to make a point from what you “want” a man’s opinion to be of skeletors!
tx tuffers, I am checkingout that book
NICE LEGS??? WHAT???? ARE YOU FREAKIN KIDDING ME HERE! When your legs are the same size above and below the knee, you got some problems!
What ever happened to the new BMI rules they brought out a few years ago? Down the toilet with the laxatives I guess. Leave it to the fashion industry to just abandon the rules and completely ignore them, haha.
They are thin but NOT anorexic thin. That is the nature of fashion modelling, and I’d much rather see those girls modelling clothes than a fatter person. They wear the clothes really well and that’s what matters most to the designers, that their product is displayed to the best effect.
@ Mark, yeah size 0 is not anorexic at all if you are short as 5′2 or 5′3. It is actually healthy slim size because smaller girls have smaller bones so it is a good size for them. I know cause I am 5′2 and my size is 0 or 00 and I don’t look anorexic just slim. But it is much different if girl is tall an size 0 and for some of them it is even imposibble becuase of their larger bones.
Foul. Solemn looking and horrible.
oooo my BMI is 16 and I am so completley obsessed with myself, that I thought I would tell everybody all about it and then discuss the tedious pros and cons of who looks too thin and who doesn’t, despite it’s being clinically obvious that these women are revolting.
i always wonder how they are able to lift those big shoes with their tiny legs, those things can get awfully heavy.
grossly unhealthy. they look like they are seconds away from passing out!
So sad. They look like they have been living in starvation for weeks. If it wasn’t for the make up, I’m certain their skin would be sallow and lips would be dehydrated.
My BMI was 18-19 for a long while and I was still healthy! I wasn’t even close to as skinny as these girls. I am 5 feet eight and was 120 at the time.
yeah “Mark”, I smell bullshit. I think lily figured you out.
OK, I just checked IP address, and for those that are wondering, ‘mark‘ does appear to be the same person who posted under the name ‘karia‘. So it likely is a female trying to pretend to be a guy. Mark/Karia, make up your mind – who are you?
mark, it’s obvious you’re a girl trying to sound like a guy. You have a grudge against bigger women for some reason. Either you’ve been rejected because you’re skinny, your bf cheated on you with a girl who has as much fat as personality, or you’re a big girl that hates herself and wants her fellow big girls to drown in self hate too.
Either way, please seek help. Stop hating, because that anger is hurting no one but you.
they dont even have any calves!! way too skinny! the fashion industry worries me!
lol @ ‘Marks’ comment. I don’t think men accidently stumble upon the skinny webiste and then leave an essay in the comments section – or memorise their girlfriend’s measurements for that matter.
We all know how most men react to the female body (just head over to Egotastic or a similar site if you want to find out).
@ Sophie, “leave an essay”. ha ha. That is hilarious! you are so right!
i want those thighs!! i love model posts!
they look so fucking amazing
How lame, ‘Karia’..or whoever you are.
I find the women above absolutely revolting..and it’s sad that my view apparently isn’t the most widely held. Lots of warped ideas about what looks good and healthy.
I’m not overweight; I’m of average size..both extremes are unattractive and unhealthy.
I think the model in the fourth picture is Freja Beha Erichsen, totally have a girl-crush on her, she’s beautiful.
It really does de-sensitize us :/
