Did Chokelate models for JetJ or is that a person who happens to look like her?

[Anonymous No.7066406]

It really looks like her. Didn't she say the modelling world goodbye though?

[Anonymous No.7066411]

Yeah, it's her. I've seen something on her facebook.
Looks cute. JetJ suits her.

[Anonymous No.7066417]

She's mostly retired from modelling, I think, but she does love lolita fashion and wants to promote her own indie brand, plus she modeled for JetJ at the London fashion show & GLB last year. I'm not surprised she would say yes if they asked her.

[Anonymous No.7066419]

She's in the most recent (released on Saturday) G&LB, along with another white girl I didn't recognize. They have a multiple page JetJ spread.

Found some photos someone else took.
The other girl's name is apparently Marie.

[Anonymous No.7066445]

"retiring" from modeling= cant find anyone to hire them anymore.

[Anonymous No.7066453]

Did she go to Japan or did they shoot the pictures in her country?

[Anonymous No.7066455]

She looks lovely in JetJ, very elegant.
The other girl is super cute!

She said on Tumblr that she went to Germany.
She isn't a official model for them, maybe in the future..

I would really like it if she became a model for JetJ. ^_^

She looks nice. They actually make those funky ass dresses look kind of good. And free wig advertising, everybody wins.

[Anonymous No.7067448]

Why couldnt I be born pretty enough to model for a Lolita brand? !_!

[Anonymous No.7067877]

>>7067163
Yeah, the crazy length JetJ makes their dresses at looks quite good on her, and it's no shock JetJ would ask her to model for them since they prefer to use very European-looking girls.

I don't like Choke's personality at all but I'm not going to deny she makes a good model- especially in clothing that fits her and in a fashion she has experience in.

[Anonymous No.7068916]

>>7066445
I think she meant fashion modeling where you have an agency and such and work all the time and not lolita related stuff. Being a model working for an agency and booking things, flying around the world all the time can get really tiring after awhile, I can understand why she'd want to quit and focus on her shop because it's a lot less tiring.

[Anonymous No.7068925]

>>7067877
>Yeah, the crazy length JetJ makes their dresses at looks quite good on her
Whenever I see her lolita pictures I always thought most of the dresses she wore were too short, and it didn't help that for some reason she always picked the chunkiest, tallest shoes to go with them. I like her in JetJ a lot more, TBH.

[Anonymous No.7068958]

>>7066445
Essentially. From what I remember, she got into the whole wig business partly because her own hair started falling out from all the bleaching/dyejobs she had to go through as a model?

[Anonymous No.7068973]

>>7068958
Wow, I guess that makes sense. I know models' skin go through hell because of how much make-up they put on and take off of them, especially if they're doing multiple shoots or whatever. And plus it also means never having the hairstyle you want for yourself.

[Anonymous No.7069019]

>>7068958
It could explain why she cut her hair so short.

[Spooky No.7069043]

>>7069019
She cut it off because of how bad the condition of it was like the other anon said

[Anonymous No.7069079]

So her hair broke off and she started a wig store? That's pretty ironic.

[Anonymous No.7069083]

>>7069079
I don't think you know what irony is. What you're describing is cause and effect.

[Anonymous No.7069098]

>>7069043
Which is literally what has just been said. So much attention whoring.

[Anonymous No.7069333]

She still models outside Lolita too, she is on Wehkamp.nl (Dutch online warehouse) quite regularly.

[Anonymous No.7069751]

>>7066445
No. It can be due to any reason from too ill to work due to eating disorders to just sick of the industry to cannot find work. Modelling is not an easy job even for those who have the naturally low weight and tall height. Designers talk about how big your thighs are and how your hips might be too big in front of you. The industry is not fun.

[Anonymous No.7069766]

>>7066445
Chokelate not able to find a modeling job?

BAHAHAHAHA

Now you're just spouting nonsense.

[Anonymous No.7069800]

>>7066422
If that's who I think it is then her name is Maria iirc and she modelled at the JetJ meet in London last year too

[Anonymous No.7069815]

If I didn't hate her angular skeleton face aso much i'd be happy for her. but i hate it so I wish they'd chosen someone else. She's got a hard, edgy face that is completely unsuitable for JetJ's image.

[Anonymous No.7069817]

>>7069815
She looks really similar to their other western models.

[Anonymous No.7069822]

>People being jealous of chokelate

She looks elegant as fuck and I think she suits the brand's image perfectly.

[Anonymous No.7069826]

>>7066445
This. Plus if you google search her real name you can find a few topless nudie shots she did.
I found them more than a few months ago but I didn't save them because I just don't care.

[Anonymous No.7069859]

>>7069826
Different anon but I have those pictures saved, I'm just trying to be nice and not post them. Besides I think they were from 08/09, and her last big modeling gig was in 2011.

But tbh, I think it's kind of obvious that she couldn't make it big in the modeling world and switched to lolita because it's a smaller scene with less competitive, picturesque women to go up against.

[Anonymous No.7069866]

>>7069859
>>7069826
Err, you guys know there is a difference between artistic nudeness and slutty, trashy nudeness? I don't see anything wrong with those topless pictures at all.

[Anonymous No.7069871]

>>7069866
Nobody said they were trashy or that there was anything wrong with them. Besides, the girls here with their pro-ana bullshit would probably go gaga for them since she has a 23 inch waist reported on her 2008 model profile.

Her last big modeling gig was in 2012 for the Dutch Vogue. At least, in generally Vogue is considered big.

They're hardly trashy, I don't think posting them is mean. I've seen better fashion shots from her(there's one in particular I liked that looked like it was for a 2 page spread but I never saved it)
Like I'm sure she wouldn't want these to be sent to her grandma or something, but they aren't embarrassing.

tbh I think American Apparel are trashy with a slight ebo/pedo tone

[Anonymous No.7071352]

>>7069751
>>7069859
Yeah, she said herself that she was one of those people with hips/thighs that were too big...because 34" hips are too big in the modelling world. You pretty much have to look like a coathanger with stick legs which is very difficult to achieve even if you are naturally tall and skinny, and different designers prefer different looks so some will say you're too thin, others too fat, others that your waist/hips/thighs are not small enough or the wrong shape...it's bloody brutal and the pay isn't that high for what you have to do. I'm not surprised she gave it up in favour of making money in other ways.

[Anonymous No.7071414]

She is seriously gorgeous and I hope JetJ will continue to use her as a model. I feel like a lot of people rag on western lolita models, like the last two from Innocent World. Chokelate is/was a professional high fashion model so it makes sense as to why they'd want to use her. I also like a lot of Q-Pot's models who are also Caucasian and styled very sweet and whimsical.

[Anonymous No.7071425]

Is the other girl also a lolita? Either way, it's pretty cool that they've reached out to the Western lolita community like this.

[Anonymous No.7071427]

see now chokelates freaks me out and i just realized its because from the front it looks like she and Noel Fielding could be distantly related

Too big for high fashion and runway which is what she did, especially high fashion in Europe. Commercial in the west is much more Antillean

[Anonymous No.7071522]

>>7071496
Yeah, I wasn't being sarcastic. 34" is fine for commercial, but for runway/high fashion unless you're an "it model" you have to be a coathanger, plus European fashion shows seem to favour skinny and skinnier. People like Lily Cole can get away with having 35" hips, but if you don't have the look of the week they just want you to be as close to the fit mannequin as possible.

[Anonymous No.7071525]

>>7071352

It's horrible that they think that someone as skinny as her is still too big.

i think you guys got me all wrong
noels one of my idols ive sketched him numerous times in the past
so every time i saw choklts something in the back of my head nagged "where the fuck have i seen a similiar structure before" then it hit me
it freaks me out because noel's facial structure is so radically uncommon-looking
(it actually didn't hit me till i saw her BJD inspired makeup with the dark wig because i am captain obvious today)

[Anonymous No.7071605]

>>7071525
In the regular modelling world she's not too big at all. In fact the move now is away from that image and to more reasonable proportions. If anything, she's now too skinny in the face and arms but her hips and legs are just right.

The problem you get is there are different standards for different types of modellig and different fashions within that. Choke is too big for some brands in some regions and too small for other brands in other regions. On /average/ her top half is too skinny and her lower half is too big. But people like to think and talk in extremes and absolutes, hence why you hear things like she is too big period or too small period.

[Anonymous No.7071636]

I remember assisting on a small fashion shoot and the model was from Premier models, I accidentally looked at her while she was changing and she way too skinny. You could see all her ribs while she was standing straight, her arms looked too thin and she looked close to anorexia. It's a sad world where when you're already slender enough you're pressed to be thinner. I think editorial/advertising isn't as bad as catwalk modelling though.
