Mi cuerpo

Emily Ratajkowski is one of today's most acclaimed international models. Since becoming famous for appearing nude in the Blurred Lines music video, she has taken the fashion world by storm and made a fortune at its expense, in what she once saw as a clear path to personal freedom and power. In this essay, she draws on the knowledge gained over years at the center of the industry to speak openly about what it means for a woman to achieve success through her own image. Always in the first person, it delves into the trap of feminine beauty, the difficulty of having power over your body when you are only part of the chain, the perverse dynamics of certain worlds and the dangerous gray area between consent and abuse. But she also wonders if, once she has learned this, it is possible to find her way to being a feminist woman who uses her own body to enrich herself in a world that she has made a product of. Ratajkowski is the model of the moment, but also the businesswoman who wants to hack the system.
