Bad photoshopping or scurvy?

Suasoria · Chanel

Farrah · Marc Jacobs

What are we looking at? She seems fine to me...

KaffeeKlatsch · Marc Jacobs

I think it looks more like a gust of wind is blowing the pant leg that way

clothes_horse · Dooney & Bourke

maybe she just has a large growth on that leg...

Her left (our right when looking at the pic) inner thigh is clearly Photoshopped (actually it looks like the whole inside of her leg is Photoshopped) and I think that's why her calf looks so weird. It's totally out of proportion.

Yep. Why do they do that? It does not make me want to buy the clothes more.

I'm more concerned about why one arm is so much shorter and smaller than the other.

gossipgirl · Dooney & Bourke

It can look weird if you analyze it too much, but prolly not photoshopped

VS is so guilty of ridiculous photoshopping, I often see people missing necks or having 3 hands, things like that. Next time you get a catalog, pay attention, I'm sure you'll find a bunch!

Yeah, lots of their pics end up on the Photoshop Disasters blog. I can definitely see evidence of Photoshopping here on the background between her legs where they made her thigh thinner (I see clone tool work on the background).

Gotcha. I guess I was just confused because scurvy is an internal issue that ends up decaying the skin. Hence, I was looking for nasty holes in her skin or something.
