[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think I read that Bryce Dallas Howard described herself as a size 8. I think she looks good.

Actors are much thinner and smaller than you might think because the camera adds pounds and short people look better on film. Really tall people are an exception and often look hunched over on film. They all look different in person. [/quote]

You also have to understand that a lot of these actresses fluctuate in weight and size quite a bit. If you are just looking at them at awards shows like the Oscars or at film premieres, that is almost always them at their thinnest and fittest because those events are planned far in advance, they know they will be wearing designer evening wear (which skews small and the designers want the actresses as small possible in most cases), and they know they will be photographed extensively. This is like comparing your body exclusively to what women look like on their wedding day. It's way to specific to be "inspiration" for how you dress day to day.

But then if you look at their "street style" you might be uninspired. Actresses often wear really basic, not necessarily super flattering clothes in their everyday lives. Jeans and t-shirts. Often oversized clothes. I am sure it's a reaction to having a job that requires you to constantly wear costumes and evening gowns and spend hours in hair in makeup and have people scrutinizing your appearance on camera all the time. But if you are looking for a cute every day style, actresses are often not your best bet.

That's why a lot of people like the "regular person" fashion influencers online. They may not be as beautiful as most actresses, but their outfits are generally more like what most of us wear every day. They also tend to buy mall brands or from websites that are accessible to normals, whereas actresses are often wearing clothes that the average person can't buy.[/quote]

Thanks, PP. I assume you were the one to write the first reply about the three actresses. I enjoy reading your reasoned explanations.
