Lara Stone has been working steadily in the fashion arena for about 10 years, starting when she was discovered at 15 on a family vacation. The 25 year old beauty, who has a gap in her teeth, is bigger than most models today and has everything lined up against her, is thriving as sort of an anti-dote to the thin boyish frames and androgyny of many models. Consciencious of how she is perceived by fashionistas in the industry, Stone tries not to dwell on it too much, but does admit to letting it get to her on occasion.
[W Mag] You’re curvier than many other models. Did you ever feel pressured to change the way you look?
[Stone] I guess so. When I first lived in Paris I was a lot skinnier, and also a lot younger. It’s still like that [the girls] are skinnier and younger. I mean it’s not so great for me. It is a bit of pressure. I’m still working enough as it is - but I don’t want to be the only fat one. If you know what I mean.
[W Mag] The irony, of course, is that you aren’t fat at all.
[Stone] I never really know what to say about the whole body thing. I try not obsess, really. Most things fit, and then somethings really don’t fit, and they have a seamstress fix it. I went through kind of a big change a few months ago, and I decided I want to be healthy, not just skinnier but healthier.
Stone’s figure is working for her now as the trend is beginning to shift toward models with more curves and more heightened sexuality. She has been described as having “x-rated lips” and a cross between “a warrior and Brigitte Bardot.” Stone’s body is reminiscent more of Cindy Crawford, Helena Christensen and Christy Turlington - the supermodels of the late 80’s. Ironically, they were on top until Kate Moss came along and the entire modelling world shifted gears. Fashion is so fickle.
