Victoria’s Secret Photoshop blunder gives model snake-like body
First published in Yahoo! UK and Ireland
First, they chopped off a model’s waist, then they removed a model’s arm, and now those heavy handed Photoshoppers at Victoria’s Secret have made a blunder that’s created a ridiculously sized model’s body.
On first impression, the model showcasing the brand’s burgundy open-back sweaterdress looks pretty normal, if a little skinny.
Upon closer inspection, it looks like the Photoshoppers have created an improbably proportioned body. It’s all gone wrong here, with the model’s arms, stomach and thighs elongated to a near impossible degree.

On top of that, the model’s thighs appear to join up just above the dress’ hem, but her bum is way higher than that. It just doesn’t make sense.
Readers of the Photoshop Disasters blog post entitled Thighs for Miles, where the blunder was spotted, have labelled the image editor a ‘butcher’ and it’s been dragged through the coals on social networking sites.

“Good grief! Did someone put her on the rack?” wrote one user.
“Holy loooong arms! Is she 8 ft tall?!?” wrote another.
While one user simply wrote: “That is just sooooo wrong!”
On Twitter, @PersonalNadir joked: “Spotted: snake woman!”
The alternate view of the dress isn’t much better, either, with the model’s thighs re-sized to a crazy extent – although they’ve done that before!

The image is still on the Victoria’s Secretwebsite, although we imagine once they notice the Photoshop blip it’ll come down pretty quickly.
