i still think she looks very doll-like, just a tad more sexier as she matures
she is absolutly stunning in those last pics! THX pinnie for those
That makes total sense! It's probably true because when she first became popular she was one of a kind but now there are clones everywhere so we see her look as becoming more 'normal'. (Not that she wasn't normal to begin with
)

Gemma's face looks changed in some pictures, not so much in others. It's mainly the runway photos where she looks different, her editorials are still the same, as well as most backstage pics. And that's to be expected - a lot of girls look horrible on the runways, what with the harsh lighting and the pancake makeup and everything else they do to the models. I don't think she's going to be out of a job anytime soon. She's different, not worse. However, she will eventually be phased out of modelling like every other lady who comes into the industry. That's just the way it is. If you are lucky you get 2 or 3 years, if you are extremely lucky you get 5 or 6. She's already looking for a way out with acting while she is still famous and able to get roles.

Strangers a liitle bit more info on the Movie
From rags to writer on the back of fear
Two years ago, 28-year-old Bryan Bertino was just a gaffer on commercials and low-budget independent films, hoping to accumulate enough hours to get into the electrician's union.
Smash cut to today, and the Texas-born handyman has been reborn as a newly minted writer-director, with a go picture, "The Strangers," at Universal, which begins shooting in three weeks in a desolate stretch of South Carolina on a $10-million budget. Liv Tyler scored the female lead after actresses as diverse as Thandie Newton and Oscar winner Charlize Theron circled the project looking for a dark suspense picture to give their careers a shot of adrenaline.
Bertino's offering ingeniously mixes highbrow and low, realistic romantic turmoil and in extremis primal terror. On their way back from a wedding (in February!), a couple in their mid-20s decides to forgo the hotel for a night in the house in which the man's family grew up. In the midst of all the relationship turmoil that milestone events such as this stir up, three extremely antagonistic strangers intrude (one of whom will look like 19-year-old Aussie supermodel Gemma Ward, in her unfashionably hostile acting debut). Who gets to keep the "Zoolander" DVD quickly becomes the least of the couple's worries.
The screenplay is deft, economical and dread-filled; it couples a detective's ominous voiceover catalog of items found at the scene with the disturbing imagery of the horrible events' aftermath. The script then quickly shifts back in time to the couple's middle of the night entrance in mid-fight, which provides a realistic, original twist on the standard introduction of the victims. With plot and thematic elements that evoke the claustrophobic thrillers "Open Water," "Straw Dogs" and "Panic Room," the intense experience that follows begs each moviegoer to wonder, "How would I behave if it were me?"
"What I wanted to do was focus in on their relationship and then take this outside force that is more of a traditional horror idea of bad people and play off of it," Bertino says. "I just tried to think about what I was most frightened of, and the moments that I'm most frightened are my girlfriend waking me up in the middle of the night and saying, 'I think there's someone in the living room.' So the whole idea came about as, 'What if you went into the living room and there was somebody there?' "
Bertino had submitted the script for a Nicholl Fellowship, a $30,000 prize awarded to unproduced writers by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. "The Strangers" got knocked out in the quarterfinals, but Bertino landed a manager and a meeting with Vertigo Entertainment, whose film "The Grudge" had just opened to $39 million. The sit-down was encouraging enough for him to take the risk and quit his job, and within a few days he sold the script to Universal for low six figures against mid-six figures if the film was made. "It was enough that I didn't have to work as a grip anymore," Bertino says.
His good fortune grew when music video auteur Mark Romanek, writer-director of the dark drama "One Hour Photo," refused to make the film for less than $40 million. (He insisted on building the neighborhood on a soundstage that he could control so he wouldn't have to resort to computer-generated cold-weather breath.) So the studio offered the novice screenwriter the gig instead. Bertino will have to fit his directorial debut into a packed schedule that includes writing the sharp, genre-blending horror scripts he owes Hollywood mega-producers Jerry Bruckheimer and Scott Rudin.
To celebrate, Bertino purchased his first suit and a TV

I maintain that she looks no different from the last 3 years
^OH YEAH!!
thanks for pointing that out, I didn't recognise her. Jessica did quite well in NY 
, it's so sweet that two perth girls are such good friends..after all Gemma's success and the fact that they live in New York..which is so different to Perth it's halarious

She matured a little, but still remained gorgeous as ever.
To me she looks like Kate Moss more than before.
She looks the best in backstage pictures, I don't think I've ever (or will ever)
seen anyone more beautiful than her off the runway.
As for the movie Strangers.... Can't.Wait.
And now... reposts. Some of my favourite catwalk pics of Gemma.

Gemma Ward is GOD Bottomline. Now whoever doesnt like that, does not need to be in this thread. She is Mother of GOD...ROTFF
No, but seriously she looked great at all the shows. I especially loved her at Marc by Marc Jacobs.
I agree that she needs to take a break, isnt that something though?
We usually say ladies that have been in the game for 10 years or more, should break (IE Kate, Naomi..ETC)
Gemma is truly ICONIC, and will definetely be in the modeling industry for a long time. I expect her to surpass Kate, who i dont think is the end all of it all.
Kate glamourized waif, nothing else. So bew.
