H&M puts real model heads on fake bodies. via Jezebel:

The bodies of most of the models H&M features on its website are computer-generated and “completely virtual,” the company has admitted. H&M designs a body that can better display clothes made for humans than humans can, then digitally pastes on the heads of real women in post-production. For now — in the future, even models’ faces won’t be considered perfect enough for online fast fashion, and we’ll buy all of our clothing from cyborgs. (This news sort of explains this.) But man, isn’t looking at the four identical bodies with different heads so uncanny? Duly noted that H&M made one of the fake bodies black. You can’t say that the fictional, Photoshopped, mismatched-head future of catalog modeling isn’t racially diverse.

What do you mean people have body issues? WHY WOULD THAT EVER HAPPEN?

I never reblog shit like this, but seriously, this is bizarre-o and should stop this instant.

This is pretty ridiculous.

Even the bodies of professional models are too imperfect to properly advertise clothing with. Even with photoshop. The only solution was to invent an entirely virtual body that no human being actually has.
Let that sink in for a minute.

Here, have some extra reinforcement.

We all knew this day was coming, right? I mean, it’s only just a matter of time until they dispense with the models altogether.
P.S. Fuck you H&M. Fuck you and your crappy, ill-fitting clothes.

H&M you’re doing it wrong. The clothes should fit the body, not the body fit the clothes! Silly corporation!

#are you fucking kidding me?

mother fucking bullshit, C’MON!

THE FUCK

OH COME ON

So hey, remember when everyone was like, “no big deal brah. It’s not like they can rig the outcome in their favor.”

yeah…

The government just has way too much fucking power these days. It’s not a problem when the people in powerful positions don’t have agendas but when they do, you get this.

had to stop studying for that one.

I believe something like this would be called a “Kangaroo court” if I’m right.

This isn’t even fair now!

I think it’s time to mass-e-mail the president. I just did.

Everyone follow suite.

I don’t care if you people think nothing will come of it. I think we proved tghe other day that something came of it.

We did something that day. We stopped a Bill.

They aren’t ignoring us. They are fighting back.

People should not be afraid of their governments. Governments should be afraid of their people.

FIGHT HARDER

LET’S FIGHT EVEN HARDER.

So, it seems at this point they don’t even try to pretend they aren’t corporate puppets anymore.

There’s just been a shift of values within government. Their power, now, has become more desirable than their secrecy. They’re going to subjugate us however they can, and they don’t care who knows.
