This is how we keep our faith alive

Anastasia Kuznetsova @ Next (Paris, NY, Milan, London)

End of July, talking about new faces. Preparing the season, making a quick virtual tour of all the newbies, worldwide. Seeing who bets on what kind of look, who promotes which kind of aesthetic and last but not least who we would like to see on the runways soon. When it came to Next, Anastasia Kuznestova was an easy choice for us as we fell in love with her look as soon as she signed and we were just waiting for the day she starts getting more attention. This happened, this season. She did well in New York, did well in London and does well in Milan. Opened Rodarte and Hervé Léger, closed Max Azria. Walked for Christopher Kane, Jonathan Saunders and, hot news of the night, Prada. Now we know who's the casting director her agent was talking about. "She's going to have a hot season, mark my words" he said. That's what we did and it wasn't difficult for us to trust in Anastasia's potential. Even less after seeing these videos, shot at Next Paris offices.
