The model obviously was born with no eyes, and "Victoria" made an executive decision to add a pair of eyes in post-production (heaven forbid impressionable young girls start blinding themselves). Unfortunately, the guy they gave the job to didn't have any eyes either.
oh! I was looking at them individually! Look at them together as a whole and yes - they are eyes! Probably left over from enhancing the color on a model's eyes in a previous shot/project!! Rule #1 - ALWAYS start with a fresh clean slate!
Very interesting blog, and particularly powerful for pushing for more accountability on the part of Ralph Lauren and others.
But I do really wish you'd be a little more explicit in your descriptions of each image and what's wrong with it. You may be quite experienced at looking at these distorted limbs and such, but most of us are not. While our instinct may often tell us that something looks wrong, and our brain may often provide the optical illusion of correcting it for us, it takes a particularly trained eye to really appreciate exactly what's wrong with the anatomy in many of these pictures.
this makes me think of two things: 1) alice in wonderland - maybe it's the early stages of the cheshire cat... 2) the movie "les yeux sans visage" that's also supposed to be creepy 3) the song "eyes without a fa-" this makes me think of three things...
Part of the fun, for me, of this site is trying to decipher the PsD through the comments. It's almost always explained, and adds intelligence (and snarkiness) to the post title and the PsD...a commentary without comment, if you will.

For all of you who don't see the eyes, turn the image around aproximately 170° clockwise. Those are not only eyes, but creepy staring insane-looking eyes!! One doesn't recognise it at first because the eyelids are missing, but it's really a pair of eyes from a semi-frontal perspecitve.
I'd say they are beads from a necklace that was removed... look at the shadow on her neck on the original picture... quite awckward to see a shadow that straight !
I'm not surprised it's in the clearance sale. And what is wrong with that girl's neck? She looks like she should be in a wheelchair with spittle on her chin.
I'm not convinced it is a photoshop error. I think it's possible Jedediah & the little Roman dude are having a battle. Did either of them have a cannon?
it's like the old, old SNL skit where women in the future evolve with eyes where their nipples used to be, that was the only way to get men to look them in the eye.
At first I thought they were rusty-looking metal grommets on the shirt... then it kinda looked like there was cotton or fluff stuck in them. THEN I realized grommets should not be located where they were, all uneven and stuff. !THEN! I read the comments and saw the damn creepy eyes. Jaysus.
They are clearly not eyes, and are no where near where her nipples should be... So not really funny and neither is it educational (in terms of avoiding similar disasters) if no one can tell what it is or how it ended there.. So, I'm sorry.. in the words of the comic book guy: Worst post ever... Consider more descriptive captions for posts: eg legs/arms/torso missing, cloning errors etc
I agree with Chaari, although most of these disasters are easy to spot, I do wish there was a more in depth description of each. Sometimes those of us who are novices need a bit more explaining so we can spot the more vague problems. Great blog though!

I can't decide if they look like alien nipples or cigarette burns
I'm gonna have to go with gunshot wounds.
I think they're eyes.
Whatever they are, they were removed from her lower bathing suit region. Ahem.
Tis a sad, sad day when phantom nipples have to resort to public tomfoolery to further their cause.
WV: traenes - Men that dress like women.
Oh God I think it's moving!
I vote for it being eyes.. Scary :(
The top one looks like a yin-yang symbol.
At first glance, I thought of them as weird buttons, but then I looked closer. There is no doubt in my mind; they are eyes!
I'm really creeped out, now. Who photoshops a pair of eyes into a random place on a picture?
It's a pair of eyes, folks. Staring into your soul, ready to devour.
It's Photoshop wage slaves purposely fucking with PhotoshopDisasters!
I like the tatoo of a magnifying glass on her arm...

Hahaha! Spook-o-vision! Hahaha!
They didn't come from her "lower bathing suit region" Those white spots are beads for the drawstring, not blanks.

Oh yes, I see I see.

The perfect post-swim piece.. if you are gonna swim in a country where Democracy has just brought in.
wv: bulat as in bullets at your belly
I thought nipple-eyes were all the rage this season?
Did anyone else notice her legs?
Agree with Chaari, and thanks to Melissa for the explanation.
this makes me think of two things:
1) alice in wonderland - maybe it's the early stages of the cheshire cat...
2) the movie "les yeux sans visage" that's also supposed to be creepy
3) the song "eyes without a fa-"
this makes me think of three things...
Creepy beady little George Bush eys aside... VS hired a model with NO BREASTS.
I HAVE HOPE!
Ahem...sorry for the caps, I got excited.

Now that's what I'd call Drop Dead Gorgeous. lol

Chaari, if you cannot spot the disaster in any of these images do you not think that the previous comments might give you a clue?

You know, i have nothing really to add to the conversation other than to confirm they look like eyes.. buti couldn't pass up this word verification.
wv: foometed
AAAH!

I'm going to have NIGHTMARES!
so.... which photo did they come from?
Are those eyes!? That's terrifying.
EITHER EYES OR GUN SHOT WOUNDS
I can't decide, this is too scary :/
I'd say they are beads from a necklace that was removed... look at the shadow on her neck on the original picture... quite awckward to see a shadow that straight !

Those are water drops on the camera lens that took the original picture, not a photo shop :p
"Nice shot but shame she's got her eyes half closed. Could you PS some open eyes?"
"Yeah sure"....
At first I thought they were rusty-looking metal grommets on the shirt... then it kinda looked like there was cotton or fluff stuck in them. THEN I realized grommets should not be located where they were, all uneven and stuff. !THEN! I read the comments and saw the damn creepy eyes. Jaysus.
These two spots look like Eyes? -Really!!!
Eyes, with very blurry & soft edges cut out! o_O
This was my reaction:
"Oh no! Oh my God! Ha ha ha ha! Oh nooo! Ha ha ha ha ha ha!"
My favorite PsD yet!
wow alien beetles.. cool.
and I realize it is not photoshopped, what is that expression? she looks like she is having slight labor pains.

There's no way this wasn't done on purpose... I refuse to believe this was an accident... *hugs knees*
I am intersting in your blog
