People used to look like this, and have idiosyncrasies like smallish lips, and we could still call them attractive because they looked like regular humans.
Hot take I think she is still attractive.
I'm a few years older than Karoline but I think a lot of these "She's 28, I'm 35 and I look better" memes underestimate how unflattering that close-up-under-harsh-lights was. The lip injections were gross but other than that I see some visible pores (normal), some textured patches (normal), and a couple undereye lines (normal for late 20s/early 30s, especially fair skinned women like us). It didn't help that she had heavy makeup on, which you would too if you thought you were getting photographed for a national magazine at normal range.
I'm 32. I go to one of the better dermatologists in DC, and I go quarterly. I have been using Vitamin C and tretinoin daily since my mid-20s. My new coworker just told me she thought I was 28. I think my skin looks good. I still think I would fare poorly under the conditions Karoline was photographed under.
Btw, the feminist in me is pissed off that she's the ONLY one whose appearance we are talking about. Not that of JD Vance, who looks 50 when he's 41. Not that of Stephen Miller who looks like the swamp creature he is. We are literally only talking about the young woman.
You genuinely think this is the normal amount of wrinkles for under 35? I am 45 and would love this kind of photo taken of my skin to see what I might be missing, just wouldn't want it published
I hate this entire administration but this is unfair. Nobody looks good this close up.
This is not just a close up photo. This is a photo where the photographer deliberately set up sharp cold tone light - direct into her face and slightly above, the light that churns any make up into the mud; the light that gives the shadow from every slight wrinkle; the light that gives the skin a dead man shade. The photographer ignored diffusor and reflectors, probably stretched diaphragm (like during architectural photoshoot), to ensure that every pore on Karoline's face highlighted like Mariana Trench, that every spot on her skin looks like melanoma. No retouching, of course. But he added contrast and texture, just like a control shot.
There are rules for the portrait photography - soft, filtered side light (better the warmer than day light), reflector from the bottom to ensure that under eye wrinkles are softened, wide diaphragm, correct lensed. When professional make a portrait, he can remove 10-12 years from the face even without photoshop. But he can also add 10-12 years.
The fact that he didn't just do a close up photo, but put efforts to make her look this way for the sole purpose to humiliate the women is disgusting. But he is a man. What puzzles me the most that other women are buying this lie and keep humiliating this woman. We should be better regardless of our political views, and expose this "photographer" for what he has done.
Yeah, I posted above about how I think I look good for my age but would fare as poorly as Karo did here and I agree with this. I'm sick of seeing women be like, "This is Karoline's 28 and this is me at 35. Being evil ages you." Like, one, they rarely don't look great either. And two, if they do, they're using filters and the camera isn't right in their face.
And again, NO ONE is talking about the men who actually do look like shit for their ages. JD is 41 and has worse crow's feet and nasolabial folds than my father, who is 62. Btw, very telling that most of the men's close ups were shot in black and white and the young woman got literally the harshest lighting imaginable.

I like the style and wish more published photographs showed the real thing versus the fake and blurred

The dress is stunning and so appropriate for the event. She might bought it new a few years ago and just re-using. It is totally appropriate to wear the outfits several times, she is not a runaway model.

That would also make sense because I doubt the friend's mom is going to put aside the brand new, full price stuff to send to Usha. It's not like she would get the credit for it. When Usha's outfits get reported on by this one creepy twitter account, they credit Milly, not the boutique.
It's probably older stuff she can take a loss on and Usha pays a heavy discount.
Why do you think our British poster is 'creepy'? I'm not arguing she's not just curious why you think she is. I only post her photos b/c I can only poster twitter pics and Usha is rarely photographed.

She also wore past season Shoshanna at some point this fall and that's a similar style and price range. Would make sense that the boutique is selling them both.

I will say, if I were her friend, I would've told her don't get anything done less than a week before this VF photoshoot. Those injection marks look they were done literally en route. But in her defense, she probably thought that they would be edited out.

I'm the poster you're replying to and yes, I think that's normal. I see a couple undereye lines on each side and she's smiling which is probably pronouncing them. She also has a lot of makeup on and the concealer and powder is clinging on for dear life.
I also have one or two lines per undereye. They look better or worse depending on the day. If it's a humid summer day and I haven't had a glass of wine in a couple weeks and I'm getting all eight hours of sleep, I forget they're there. They were really bad the other day due to the dry air and the fact that I had a few too many margs with work friends at my company's Christmas party and didn't get to bed until midnight.
I don't know when this pic was taken, but Karoline is a mother of an infant in a high stress job. I would imagine she doesn't sleep well and is too exhausted to be fastidious drinking eight glasses of water a day and putting on eye serum nightly. I'm willing to extend her undereyes grace even if she herself is morally bankrupt.
