French Vogue: Bringing up Baby on Cigarettes and Prada
Oh, mon dieu. French Vogue has outdone themselves. The April
issue features a faux pregnant Lilly Donaldson wearing six-inch heels and
doing things with a doll and a baby bottle that, well, defy summary. You really
have to check these photos out yourself.
Call me paranoid, but I think they may be making fun of les americains
in this one. All right, you got us, we Americans ARE totally uptight about not letting
our fetuses smoke in utero.
In the next one, it seems the model confused the instruction, “Check the temperature of the milk on your wrist,” with, “Use the milk to shoot up.”

They don’t smoke, drink, eat raw cheese, etc. They are even careful of eating uncooked vegetables, for fear of toxoplasmosis. And as recently as 10 years ago many French women wouldn’t get in a car in late pregnancy because they said it would cause a miscarriage. It is really an American myth that they do these crazy things in pregnancy. So I think this will shock quite a few French women also.
Laure68 commented on Jan 01 70 at 12:00 amThis looks like something they would do on Ugly Betty, but I don’t think they have even done anything this strange. Just goes to show – reality is always stranger than fiction.
