At Chanel
I think Kaia looks great here - not as tired looking like SS18 fashion weeks - but can I please just say that this outfit is terrible? I know it's haute couture, and it's Karl/Chanel, but it makes Kaia look huge! Even Lena Dunham would easily fit into that dress.
This might be a better shot but that is the most unflattering silhouette ever:
I haven’t looked at other photos from the show but maybe she was the only one skinny enough to make the dress look decentThis might be a better shot but that is the most unflattering silhouette ever:
This outfit reminds me of the outfits Bella Hadid wears...
But, to comment something positive, too, here is some Kaia kind of thinspo from Valentino( you can only see her legs but they are wow enough)
According to a new interview with Bazaar,
http://www.harpersbazaar.com/culture/features/a14530296/kaia-gerber-interview/
Kaia eats
a bagel every day for breakfast
a filling lunch such as steak tacos followed by a sundae
and lastly, she doesn't ever "go a day without pasta"
I guess that just goes to show that for a skinny person to be labeled as "healthy" and "relatable" by mainstream media they must portray themselves, almost always falsely, as carb-loving, wholesome gals!

Wtf, do people actually buy this shit? Ridiculous. And why is it suddenly a good thing to eat unhealthy crap all the time? Smh.
the pictures of her at breakfast show her with a small plate of fruit and a coffee or tea; does she think her instagram doesn't spoil this false narrative?
steak tacos, pastas, and sundae ? I've seen girls 160 lbs eat more light than this...to be fair it says her "perfect day". Maybe a perfect day would mean eating those things.....without the calories
I imagine it's how she used to eat before she committed to losing weight/maintaining her current size. Press aside, just scrolling through her IG and Kaia fan accounts, there are many people think she's anorexic, too skinny, etc. Even if her IG doesn't push the whole ~I love carbs and eat whatever I want~ fallacy, it wouldn't be a smart move to be honest and tell Harper's she eats air for breakfast and salad for dinner.
From personal experience, at my lowest I was allowing myself Chinese take out once a week for dinner and maybe ~10 cookies worth of calories of sweets once a week and was still able to lose. The thing was I had control to not think of it as a cheat meal and sabotage the rest of my day. So she probably does eat these things... but definitely not as often as she claims.

The photo @ravendoan02 posted is certainly the best out of the set
I appreciate the fact that she tried to diversify her facial expression beyond the zombie stare/fish gape that is typical of a nepo model. She's so new to the industry though, I think she could be great editorially in a few years with more experience.additional photos from Vogue Paris

I genuinely didn't feel as though there was as much gravitas placed on the importance of being extra skinny in the fashion industry last year as there has been in previous years. I'm not just talking about models here, but for everyone behind the scenes, in the wings, and on the street and the dance floor too. However I really feel like with the rise of Kaia, and Hedi's return to the scene, we're going to see it's value increase again this year
