Video: How Do You Preen?

Jessica Connelly charms even the camera. Note: It is not a human being

Tricia Centenera, Teresa Herrera, Vania Romoff, Lulu Tan-Gan, Tina Ong, Jessica Connelly, Kiana Valenciano, Martine Cajucom, Laureen Uy, Sara Black, Janina Dizon, Isabel Roces, Rhian Ramos, and Janine Gutierrez are all Preen girls. Evidently, when asked to describe their idea of what the modern woman is like, words like “eloquent,” “strong,” “successful,” “fun,” and “stylish” were all thrown out. Needless to say, this modern woman that they are actually describing is themselves.

In the careful curation of these girls, there was one image in mind: Who can embody the modern Preen woman the most? We think zoning in on one would be too much to ask. So here are fourteen very different girls but only when you draw a thin line across all of them will you see what we’re talking about. They all believe that being online is a way of life, vanity is often mistaken for confidence, and that the world needs more honesty and rawness.
