Karolin Wolter @ M4 (Germany), Supreme (NY), Women (Milan), Women (Paris), Independent (London)

She's just having a moment in Milan. After having one in London that just came after another one in New York. She's have a season. Her season. It all started with shows like Marc Jacobs, Alexander Wang, Max Azria and if we would like to make a complete list we might miss some. So let's stick to these three it gives an appropriate overview. She opened and closed Jaeger in London and walked for Christopher Kane. Again, she did more there but it's useless, the two are enough to give you the tune. Now Milan. It's right now and not finished but things went so well it's worth a few words. A few lines. Maybe more. She opened Jil Sander and was at a full range of others.  High profile. Only.

We'd like to add a little more. On how it really started for her and how we started to like her looks. Was an editorial in Vogue China by Terry Tsiolis. Was just after we saw her doing faces to Paul Rowland while taking some polaroids. Turned out to be a nice series. It has left a mark. Waterproof portfolio. But it was maybe the way she worked out Vogue's story with bleach brows that pointed out potential to us. Obviously her expressions, poses, her presence on the pictures were striking enough to fall in love. Neither a completely classic model nor a bizarre beauty. The kind of girls that are always on the border between both leading to controversial looks in editorials. It happened again in Crystallized magazines (sharing the editorial with our beloved Dasha Malygina) and Wonderland. We bought all of them we were able to find.

Last one we had in hand was TUSH (featured above). Is it mystery or simply the force that pushes talents to work together ? It happened that it was shot by Felix Lammers with make-up artist Yasmin Heinz. The same ones we've already featured for their wonderful team work. Their ability to pull something great out of a specific model, to capture the sleekness where everyone sees some raw beauty and change to rough and natural some other models who appeared too soft sometimes. In latest Tush - first of this year - they surely offer another vision of Karolin.  It's clean somehow but we also see some filthiness in disguise as if both were meant to work together. Soft and sensual yet slightly spooky. Close to classic but rather classy. Excactly the way Karolin looks like on the runways...
