Gemma Ward

[stefanelle]

Thank you and thank you for the karma.
Beyond that, the idea that someone's physical beauty peak being 14 is just soooo.....wrong.

Look at Anna S or Kate G...they started modelling WELL into their 20s (TEN years older than Gemma - 24) and no one comments about their beauty fading.
Because they became big as adults not children in year 8 at school.

I think the problem is, and it's not only about Gemma, but also about other models people want to see making a comeback, that people want to see these women looking like they used to look at the peak of their careers. It's like we are perpetually comparing the 28 years old Gemma to the 14 years old Gemma, and especially those people who were huge fans of her, they don't want to see her change, they want a comeback of the good old Gemma and the whole "era". I miss that era too, I miss the time when we saw a wide-eyed, slightly awkward teen looking Gemma on that Vogue Italia cover, I miss Tanya Dziahileva strutting down that Versace runway or Snejana Onopka with her "b*tch face death stare", even with all these never-ending speculations about her wieght in a package. Those girls have changed though, they look different, they have different lives and priorities. Not only the fans need to understand that, but also the industry. I feel like even in the pictures, Gemma is made to look like she used to look years ago, not like she's embracing her 2015 look.

Can anyone link me to the interview where she says she won´t work as much because of her daughter, please? all I could find was an interview where she said:

But it was the birth of her daughter Naia a year ago that really helped Ward focus and she says this new energy led her back to work.

“It has been fun to show Naia new places as we travel around for work. It is amazing because you don’t know how much having a baby is going to change you but it gave me focus and direction. I know what is right and she is a priority — it played a part in coming back to work,”

she states that her daughter is a priority but -maybe I got it wrong- she doesn´t say or imply that she would work less or travel less because of her family.

I guess I ended up bringing the old argument back, sorry.

I don't have the video link, but it was backstage during Prada when she first came back. She said she was open to any work, but it was an important time for Naia, and she was planning to structure it around her.

Beautiful!

 

[kokobombon]

She looks lovely yet so fierce

I'm eagerly awaiting the return of lipstick into Gemma's life, all her comeback jobs have had a very nude or natural face. It seems a shame to let those lips blend into her skin and appear non-existent.

^ I know, so far most of her work has been the same. russh, vogue, v magazine, etc..

It's just her in the nature or the beach with no make up, when are they gonna do something new with her

It's like she hasn't aged!

I agree about everything being very natural since her return, BUT this cover is STUNNING so can't really complain. Just so great to see her.

This photo was tagged with Free People too, so congrats to Gemma because that commercial work will bring in the big bucks. Also suits her hippy vibe.
