The Kristen McMenamy Dazed & Confused feature for the magazine's August 2010 issue explores an eccentric forest fairy-esque look for the 46-year-old model and mother. McMenamy was a famed supermodel in the 1990s and she describes herself as the "first weird-looking model." To some extent, "weird-looking models" are rampant in the fashion industry these days.
