No Photoshop Editorials

‘Super Models' Go Natural For Hedi Slimane in Vogue Hommes

— March 27, 2009 — Fashion
Kim Kardashian received a generous Photoshop treatment in the new issue of Complex magazine, as would Jennifer Aniston, Angelina Jolie and all celebrities from the A to the Z lists.

So I guess Kim Kardashian and those celebrities won’t be calling photographer Hedi Slimane any time soon. The man is famous for taking natural photos with minimal makeup, if any. Slimane’s realistic work is featured in the new Spring/Summer 2009 issue of Vogue Hommes International with an editorial entitled, ‘Super - Models.’

The editorial features male super models from the 1990s with no photoshop and no makeup. The featured models are Mark Vanderloo, Werner Schreyer, Andree Van Noord, Larry Scott, and Greg Hansen.

In fact, it has become more interesting and peculiar news when a celebrity does not get photoshopped. Brad Pitt generated huge buzz recently by boldly going natural on the cover of W Magazine. See that story alongside Madonna's leaked outtakes sand photoshop, and another Hedi Slimane natural photography editorial in the related section below.
