This cover of GQ magazine has sparked a debate over magazines airbrushing to 'improve' the appearance of images. GQ admitted to digitally altering the photograph and without consulting kate winslet beforehand. Kate who likes her curves and is comfortable with herself physically claimed to be angry with the magazine as she wanted to show off her curves to show not all women need to stick thin. But the airbrushing slimmed her down to appear thinner with smaller hips and thinner legs.
In my opinion when it comes to airbrushing changing the lighting, skin tone etc is fine but why change body shape and make people appear thinner, its just not right. Kate was trying to set an example fighting against size 0 models and here she just looks like she's following others and slimming down.
