Model FAIL


Saw this featured article in the inflight magazine of Tiger Airways on my recent trip back home.

Take a look and make a guess what's wrong with the picture before scrolling down to see what I think is wrong.

Is it me of does the model on the left have a run in the stocking?

It made me wonder:
  1. Did the model not notice that she has a run on her stocking when she was putting it on?
  2. Did the photographer not notice that she has a run on her stocking during the photo shoot?
  3. Did the editor not notice that she has a run on her stocking during post-editing?
  4. Or is it just me being swakoo, that the "run" is in fact part of the stocking design?
Share you views with me on this in the comments.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

JayWalk has a very sharp eye for details, like how he spotted 2 dragonflies in a friend's photograph recently. However, he too has the power to be blind selectively like how to buah bodoh at charboh's hints. Hur hur hur.....

I thought it was a reflective shine from the flash of the camera, you know, sometimes stockings can be fancy and glittery. Plus hor, they look like good-looking patrons of the club rather than models. So I think it's one of those hired-cameramen-go-shoot-sexy-patrons kinda photos. If it really is a photoshoot, then really Fail lor. On many levels too.

Grasshopper: You know what, it didn't occur to me that it was a candid shot. All along I was under the impression that this was a studio shot.

Mistress Grace: So for all you know, that was a picture of real guests whom one of them just really have a stocking run that was captured and circulation to all over the world. FAIL.

Bub: Light reflecting? In a perfect straight line only to stop exactly at the hem of the skirt?

It's the sheen from the stocking that reflected the light.

I wore stockings to work in the past too. When it gets too busy, you don't have time to change. U can only hope and pray ppl don't notice. If your colleague saw and never tell u then it's obviously sabotage lor..

Moral of the story: Wear Air Spray Stockings...

fitti: I am not convinced that it is sheen from lighting given that lighting isn't really in abundance in those settings.

THB: Would it be worse, if you take them off?

Mistress Grace: Well, I don't think this is a very common item right?

It stops at the hem of the skirt cos the skirt covers the rest of the thigh?
Try an experiment. It really is the reflection of light. I too once wore stockings like that and am not proud of it! Guess u can imagine why.

spiller: You are only saying that coz your are staring at people's cleavage lah.

Linny: Where?

venu5sian: She has two legs that just happened to be tucked neatly behind the other girl's leg lah. Otherwise, she would be one girl when helluva fat calf (that is even fatter then her thigh).  

Bub: What I meant is that if thats light then how come the light doesn't also illuminate that part of the skirt as well. If you say that theskirt material is not as reflective, then surely it would be a tad brighter. No? Anyway, that's debatable and it's one of those little mysteries that will never get solved. :(

And no. I can't imagine why. Why?

1121: Yes, it was taken off the September 2008 issue of the Tiger Airways magazine. Right now, there is a debate that the line could the sheen reflection as it a quite unthinkable for a publication to make such an amateur mistake.

Still, it look like a run to me.

I am not running away with your conclusion. It's sheer reflection.

Stocker: Perhaps it is just reflection. Perhaps the fact that it was low resolution printing that fuzzes up the details.
