Retouching

Anne V for Numéro.

• BuzzFeed Shift talked to a photo retoucher who said, among many other interesting things: "I work on supermodels, and people are always asking, what do you do to them? We do a lot of skin clean-up to make their skin look perfect, but I don't do any distortion of their bodies because these girls are really genetically blessed. I have smoothed boniness before — like when models have bones sticking out of their chest, they want that subdued. That's somewhat common." [BuzzFeed Shift]
