Miss Fit UK: You Can't Fit Here This Is The War Room

made my day! haha
I wanted to be first! Poop.
My guess here: They were playing with the liquify filter and just put the wrong pic in the site. BEAUTIFUL!!
VW: Trender. Maybe the designer tried to set a trend by screwing 1 pic just to appear here in PSD ;)
phew..better not leave a comment now..this is WAY to obvious!
Is that a model? I thought it was a bloke in drag.
The label "distorture" made me laugh for far too long.
I'm sick of people not planning ahead and having to cut corners later. "fix it in post" leads to garbage like this. All they had to do is pad her out in the photo shoot and it would look better than that, without having to pay someone to punch the picture.
the boobs are killing me.
Not everyone has symmetrical breasts ya know :)
the other shots on the original site are just as bad, especially the last one!
they sure are Meped! (my word verification)
And the shot isnt even sharp.
Doesn't she watch "What Not to Wear?" Stacy and Clinton tell women (repeatedly) that stripes are good as long as your bust doesn't distort the spacing of the stripes. This shirt goes in the trash!
...I mean, at least line up the second buttons down...
If my girlfriend could do that....I don't think I'd like it.
Good Lord...did she step part-way into one of those space-time continuum thingies like on Star Trek?!?
WV: nadlik. That describes the creator of this abomination pretty well.
There is no way in the world that model in her ultra-busty manifestation could get that top buttoned.
But I would pay to watch her try.
No, no, there is no disaster here. You see, the model is wearing new Dupont Ultrastretch fabric and she was recently stung by a bee, to which she is allergic, resulting in unsightly bulgy swelling in the original photo. This should have been *fixed* in postproduction. Unsubscribering!
Are people making bad photos on purpose in order to get featured on this site?

It was never actually here, and is a total fig newton of your imagination.
the more I look at it, the more it seems that her body is pointing one way, and one massive breast is on her right side pointing the opposite direction of her body, while the left one is just sorta... limp and deflated. If it's even there at all. Which makes it look like she's got some sort of strange slope going across her chest.
And my word verification is Scomia, which sounds like the kind of disease this would be named.
That looks like a Miss-fit (misfit) to me.
Its photoshopped? really? where? :/
I barely know where to begin... so I think I'll start and finish by saying: men (boys) please do not photoshop breasts until you have actually seen real ones, in the flesh. And even then, DO NOT PHOTOSHOP BOOBS. EVER.
This is supposed to be advertising a not-overtly-sexy shirt to women. This is the kind of shirt I might normally buy and wear, but do you think I will be swayed by an image of a normal-looking model with abnormal chests? No. I will run screaming from your product, lest I end up looking like that. Aaargh!!
WV: beake - is this a chest-beake i see before me?
Wow...quiet a manly thing she is...
Not distorted - there are two rows of buttons (one over each boob) not just one down the middle. See?
Oh dear. Another male Photoshopper?
It's a demo of the new "Boobify" button in Photoshop 2011!
Although the picture is smaller, it looks WORSE in situ on the website. It's supposed to make you want to buy the shirt, and all it does is make the shirt look badly cut.
WV: Ulasatax. This lass has been atax by something.
This is from a company that sells shirts to women with large breasts but average waist and hips. Since I fall into that category, believe me that being this way is actually a pain...it's hard to find shirts that have enough room in the chest but don't look too baggy around the waist.
However, when I saw this shirt a few mo. ago on their site, I didn't like it...still don't, but I don't think it's PSed.
Gessh, she clearly got her implants removed during the photo shoot...lay off her :-|

Ooooh yeah your right, nothing wrong with the picture afterall. silly me! Geo, i would love to live in your ideal world but sadly i actually see a badly mishapen, and rubbery looking model with a tiny head. 2 rows of buttons or not, she's still a freak and the p-shopper still needs his head checking.
*Robbie* It's a demo of the new "Boobify" button in Photoshop 2011!
I am so upgrading...
Hmm, do I take it that Geo_Rich is being subtley ironic and therefore ignore him or risk public ridicule by taking him seriously and pointing out what an absolute dunce he is?
I'll risk the latter.
C'mon people - can't you see that the unsightly bulge is merely a small owl?
That's where my girlfriend keeps hers too...
WDI - live with the ridicule; you're still wrong.

This picture is mine, (Nikki Hesford) and is for my business Miss Fit UK. I am a young single mum running a business on a shoestring (£8,000 credit card limit to buy website, prototype products, stationary, advertise, PR, manufacture garments....... and then boot-strapped from there) so sadly the budget isnt huge. This means I model the products myself, so apologies if you think I look like a bag of spanners but one needs to improvise.
However this image has NOT been photoshopped. I have had breast implants yes, and the bust has also been padded out with an extra 2 chicken fillets in each cup as our earlier images had received criticism from ladies saying "how can you be a big busted brand when the models look flat chested" so we ensured that the bust was extra padded as not to insult our customers.
Our brand is for sexy, 20-something women who like tight fitting, curve hugging clothes, if you dont like it you can go to Bravissimo.
Although you may ridicule the picture, our sales of this product are phenonemal and that says it all and its my customers I care about. Oh, thanks for the free PR and google rankings boost :-) Website traffic and sales has hit the roof this week on the back of this!
Ive just checked my Google Analytics, 11,000 visitors in 2 days from this blog!! Thank you very much!!! :-D
Hooray for you, Nikki! The commenters here apparently know almost nothing about textiles - for example, the rather eye-popping patterns that stripes can form over curves.
I also find it hysterical that so much of the criticism on this piece is about not knowing women's bodies... Guess what? Fake boobs as well as real ones point up, down and all around at various times and with varying degrees of coordination.
Best of luck with your business!
From "Some Like It Hot," Jack Lemmon to Tony Curtis:
JL: "Now you've done it."
TC: "What?!"
JL: "You tore off one of my chests!"
Either hire a busty model or DON'T!!! What these idiots don't realize is that that shirt would look awful on a woman with a large bust anyway. Faking it on a normal-sized model looks even more ridiculous. Has the creative director even LOOKED at a woman's breasts? I mean...he can't have...what?
Ohh, the creative director's boyfriend Shaun okayed this? Well, that explains it, but it doesn't excuse it.
WV: grento
Glad Grento shot first. Unfortunately his laser blast distorted her boobs for life.
Nikki, I'm not sure that it's the size that most people are commenting on but the distortion of stripes that looks exactly like a badly executed liquify tool.
If, as you say, no Photoshop has been used then it's one heck of a moiré effect.
@HelenaBucket "Either hire a busty model or DON'T!!! What these idiots don't realize is that that shirt would look awful on a woman with a large bust anyway. Faking it on a normal-sized model looks even more ridiculous."
Erm, 1) Im not a normal sized model, Im a size 8 34DD/E that is far from normal. 2) Clearly the "idiots" buying 50-100 units of this product each day dont think it looks awful (the proof is in the sales hunni) and 3) I dont want to hire a bigger busted model, I am very happy with my own, FREE, agency represented modelling skills thank you.
I understand why people think its been photoshopped, but its a pin-striped pattern and that is what happens when a pin striped pattern is stretch over a large bust!!
Helena, I don't think you quite understand the clientele for this line of clothing. There is a growing (heh) population of very thin women with (in my opinion) disproportionately-sized implants. This is a brave new world of apparel fitting and sizing... and while you may not agree with the overall aesthetic effect, a woman who's willing to a)pay for and b)haul around enormous chichis on a small frame is probably NOT looking to de-emphasize them. We're not talking me at 5'2" with my natural double-Ds and a little round tummy to go with them.
Not a look for you? Fine. Your opinion is your privilege. I could pick apart the photo for a half-dozen other things - the creases in the shirt, the wavering focus, etc. - but you know what? I own a small business. I know what it's like to be responsible for everything. And I think Nikki has not only been incredibly polite about this idiocy, but is doing a damn fine job, too.
Sorry, WDI. You haven't participated in it, but the charming peanut gallery has in fact been vociferously commenting on the size and shape of her breasts.
As for the moire effect - ever seen a newscaster with a poorly-chosen, thinly-striped tie? It can get much, much worse than this pic. I've worked with textiles professionally for 25 years now, and this may be an unfortunate choice of angle plus lighting, but it's entirely believable.
And in the words of Forrest, that's all I have to say about that. :-)
I have indeed seen a moiré effect on TV, Ann Marie, but this picture still appears photoshopped.
Compare the spacing of the top two buttons between left and right. Then compare the image to the other three pictures. Then look at the distortion, which doesn't seem to affect any other part of the image.
I'm always happy to be proved wrong but I'd still bet a pint on this being manipulated.
Thankfully, the world will not end because this image has or has not been played with.
I never pass up a free drink.
It's gone awfully quiet in here. Come on people; surely you can defend your positions?
Mine's a Wild Turkey on ice, Ann Marie
;)
Thank You Ann Marie, much appreciated. Although you are (slightly) wrong about my demographic, for exmaple a size 8 goes up to a DD cup, a Size 10 goes up to an E cup... etc which Im sure you'll agree aren't massively disproportionate sizes.
Our clientel have possibly had implants, but often not - they are mostly aged 18-30, strong, sexy women who love their bodies, love their boobs, they dont want to hide them or disguise them. There are enough clothing brands out there for 30-50 year old busty women, such as Bravissimo and ODLYdesign but there is nobody catering for the younger girls with large boobs and thats our market.
Chicken fillets? Well THAT's your problem. (Just kidding.)
@Nikki: I'm not concerned about the pinstripes at all. Stripes do funky things to curves (I try to avoid wearing them) and can warp in weird ways.
That being said, the area just under the breast on the model's right side is my issue. When I looked at the other photos on your site the shirt does not fit that closely. (Specifically photo three.) There should be more of a straight line between the third and fourth buttons in the photo of concern instead of that strange warping.
In addition, the front panel is not supposed to be superglued to her left breast, as evidenced by photos 2 and 3. But in the worrisome photo, the fabric seems to have warped together.
I also find it highly amusing that the only product review (5 stars) on this garment says:
"gorgeous
Posted by nikki on 1st Jun 2009
thank you very much for this top, its my fave i love the style the colour and the perfect fit, really light and cool to wear."
If you have to fake reviews, I wonder about these supposed sales that you cite.
Haha @Crash Fake Reviews?? Seriously, if I was going to submit a fake review do you really think I would use my own name?? This reviewer is Nikki Lyons, a photographer at Modelworx studio in Middleton who received 5-6 different products to sample and review.
I dont understand how photoshop works so cant say I understand the technicalities of your arguement. Photoshop is always used to edit pictures and give a polished commercial look to them, but not to enlarge the bust as far as I am aware. I saw the raw images and I dont recall the bust looking any different, and knowing my own bust apprearance reasonably well I can say with certainty that they definately look like my boobs!
If I wanted to fake a review, dont you think Id have the intelligence to use a name other than my own? LMAO. That particular reviewer to which you refer is Nikki Lyons, she owns Modelworx in Middleton and was the recipient of 5-6 free samples to review.
@Crash Give me some credit, if I was going to post a fake review I would at least have the intelligence to use any name but my own. Believe it or not, of the 500 customers we get each month, occassionally there is one called Nikki.
Any second now!
Imminent button failure!
Quickly, people...SAFETY GLASSES!!!
Ok, "Nikki," it was funny the first two comments, now it's just becoming inane.
