Naomi Campbell Rocks A Native Party Look
Naomi Campbell stepped out with her manfriend Vladimir Doronin and friends to do a bit of partying at Acqua Pazza in Ponza, Italy this week. Clearly the supermodel felt it was a fine occasion to get all dressed up … so, natch, she decided to dress like Native American princess Pocahontas:
As a world famous supermodel, Naomi Campbell has access to an amazing closet of clothes and the vaults of many fashion houses. But last night the model opted for a down to earth fancy dress look as she stepped out with boyfriend, Russian boyfriend Vladimir Doronin. But thankfully she didn’t go for complete authenticity, as the mobile phone throwing model opted not to accessorise the outfit with a tomahawk. Naomi and Doronin headed out with a group of friends all in fancy dress, for dinner at restaurant Acqua Pazza in Ponza, Italy. And with her hair in plaits and a headdress, Naomi made sure to look the part of the famous squaw. Her boyfriend went for a similarly striking look – as a naval officer. The 39-year-old model has been enjoying her holidays in Italy for the last few weeks.
I didn’t get the impression from this report that the event was a costume party but it had to have been … right? Sane people don’t just dress up in costume to dine out at fancy restaurants, do they? Whatever the hell was goin’ on, at least Naomi looked good as Pocahontas. I’m gonna assume the event was costume only and not jump the conclusion that Naomi done lost her mind. After all, we know that Naomi Campbell is a bastion of sanity, right?

No one over the age of ten can get away with plaited hair. Of course, who’d be game enough to tell her…she’d probably hit you with her phone or something.

Debho, ha ha ha!
Trent, that picture is hilarious. BTW, Naomi definitely has crazy in her eyes.

“Fancy dress” means costume party in this context, not that they are going somewhere fancy. Even if you didn’t know that before reading this piece, the article mentions that her boyfriend was in costume as well.

Squaw is not only a racist term, but it translates to, “c*nt”. It is offensive to women, as well as Native Americans. It is 16th Century French trader slang for their Native American sex partners. It was never a polite term.

One would think that girl would be able to afford a better costume. It looks like she picked that up at Walmart. Not bagging on Walmart, but come on that girl has the contacts and the cash (either he’s or her billionaire boyfriends) to have an awesome costume made or sent in.

“Squaw” is NOT a word for female genitalia. It basically just means young woman.
And as a NA woman, I don’t really mind the term. I can see why it is offense, because it is a term for a non-white woman. However, this is an article from the Daily Mail. This is a fairly right wing British newspaper/tabloid, so it’s not uncommon for them to say something racist. That said, my bf is English, and many of my friends are English. They use the term “squaw” as a term of endearment. So even though it is not at all weird that the Mail would say something racist, I really don’t think that was the case in this instance.
