Susan Eldridge

Well, to me, abandonment isn´t quite in the same category as other kinds of abuse that a parent might inflict on a child so I don´t see it as a serious a topic as if it were for example sexual abuse etc.. Secondly, talking about something that was written about in a magazine (and even though Elle may not scrupulously verify their sources it´s not exactly some crazy tabloid) is hardly pinching something out of thin air. And re-reading the posts I don´t see that I assume anything or that I´ve said something bad enough to qualify as a personal attack. If you´re offended by this you should check out the Tyra Banks thread.. But this is getting very off-topic, so if you have anything else to say why don´t you send me a message?

Well, she hardly had the greatest parents, they abandoned Susan and her siblings. I´m not sure how old she was when that happened though. Anyone can speculate on whether she was abused or not but the girlchild kind of sexappeal seems very insecure to me if nothing else. Why would someone want to be seen as childish and unaware?
So then maybe chances are, Natalia Vodianova may have been abused like that too because she also has child-like appeal to her looks in photographs.....???:huh: It just doesn't make any sense to me.....You just can't assume someone was abused and because of that she is bringing out her child-like appeal to editorials. Perhaps, it's just her face? She looks so young. And at the same time, her personality from what I can tell is pritty edgy. She's not afraid to be herself and show her sexuality into her photos. Where is the source you know that states her abuse? :huh: :flower:
 
^ Well, you have to consider that the photographs - at least in editorials - are largely the vision of the photographer. For example, Ellen von Unwerth seems to often take Lolita-esque photos. Some models are better for that type of photograph. Natalia V is well into her 20s and she's still looks 12 in some photos!

As for abuse, i don't know about during her childhood, but i would consider being with Terry Richardson as a form of abuse. :blink: :innocent:

(edit: rereading what you wrote, i think we are in agreement. :) )

Once and for all, I have not ever used the word "abused" and that was not what I was talking about either, my opinon on some of her work is not related to anything that may or may not have happened to her.
 
For me I think Susans Pictures pre Terry Richardson show a different more sweet, "I'm a young model thing." Post Terry she definatly started the serious Lolita thing.
 
Is she still modelling?

I love her. She reminds me of Michelle Tra...aadkshda (Harriet the Spy) + Michelle Williams. Adorable!
 
I think Susan may have been bit by the acting bug......That would be great if she got into some indie film or something....... :woot:
 
Oh, sorry, I was actually going to ask if someone could post if it hadn´t already been posted, I don´t have a scanner :( I´ve asked in the thread for that issue so maybe someone will post it there.
 
That's okay eostre :flower:
Is it the current issue? Maybe I can get it in Australia...some places carry UK elle.
 
Yup, it´s the current one, with Evangeline Lilly on the cover. It could be from an older editorial or something, she´s wearing a pink one-piece bathing suit with black dots on it and she´s holding her hair up with her hands. Very cute :)
 
This is the one, it´s from an older editorial it seems.

Gah.
I love her so much.
I wish there wer more pics of her.

:heart:
 
Her personality shines through every photo taken of her, more so than any other model I've seen - it makes it impossible not to like her.

And I totally dug the whole Terry Richardson pairing. Hot freaks ;) :D :innocent:

Come back Suzy! :(
