High Fashion

It’s been happening for several months now. Mannequins in stores are a little less thin and aristocratic, their feature’s rougher, their mouths wider. In advertising the same thing is happening: shorter, wider, coarser. The tall, thin look that has been the western ideal for years is finally going out of fashion.

Of course, there are opponents to the style, remaining faithful to the old concept of beauty. However, most work in the business is going to those models, actresses and actors that have the “new look.”

Possibilities

1 The change is due to deep one agents infiltrating the fashion and beauty industry with human-looking hybrids. These agents are attempting to change perception of what is beautiful, thus making it easier for human-deep one hybrids to infiltrate human society.

2 A lone, once beautiful, deep one hybrid is beginning to change. Terrified by her warping body, she frantically tries to change the human idea of beauty to fit her own image. To do this she is promoting her own look and through the strategic use of magic is winning industry over to her side.

Tragically she takes her own life before the change is complete. Without her driving force behind the movement, the style dies out and the old concept of beauty is reinstated.

3 It is just another fad, which will be forgotten within the year. In later days people look back on the “short ‘n’ pug-ugly” period with some amazement. Any resemblance that the models have to deep ones is entirely coincidental.
