Fashion does it Better

Jac @ IMG, in Numéro 111 by Miguel Reveriego as scanned by elsaskywalker from thefashionspot.com Exclusive. That little word with a long meaning and a variable definition. How does a girl become exclusive. From many mouthes, you will hear by "signing an exclusivity contract with a brand" and they might be yelling it at you as if it was the most obvious thing on earth. Well, this is a kind of exclusivity as it prevents the model from working with anyone else for the whole duration of that contract. But does it really... [Lire la suite]

        Adina Forizs @ IMG Title stolen for that song by Shantel we can't stop listening to. Pictures stolen from latest issue of L'Officiel Paris (well, bought it). Mood stolen from the virtual salad (was a sandwich, actually) we had for lunch and headache stolen from last night. Good day, that means. And tons of work. But what do we own in the end ? A lot of inspiration, at least. Adina can't stop getting our attention since we saw her in an old ed from magyar mag The Room. Since then, love haven't been able to... [Lire la suite]

Indiamara @ IMG Loved Rodarte's outfits and casting -- especially a thrilling triad made of Juana @ NY Models, Malu @ Women Direct and the girl who's going to haunt this post: Indiamara @ IMG. Pretty atypical look for an IMG-girl and second time in a row the international powerhouse takes us by surprise this season. We were smitten by Lindsay at Alexander Wang, we almost fainted after seeing how Indiamara was perfect for Rodarte's show. The mood was quite lighter, hence the heavy need for dark/moody young ladies to enhance the... [Lire la suite]

        Lucia Jonova @ IMG (Paris, NY) We're just smitten by her free-and-easy attitude and strong presence (with those blue? green? grey? eyes). We're delightfully shocked by her evolution since the first time we featured her and her digitals from IMG Paris show a brand new Lucia, looking more confident than ever and who finally knows how to handle her huge potential. Just in time, we'd say as the slender Slovak (from Exit Model Management in Bratislava) is currently in NY and already caught some attention as her... [Lire la suite]

Lucia Jonova and Julija Steponaviciute @ IMG (NY), Lela and Nathaline Marchett @ Wilhelmina (NY) It's quite showtime and we have to love polaroids and snapshots right now. Can't escape, can't run away from it. Though if castings for the shows are getting full-force coverage everywhere, the last set of polas that caught our eyes are actually for a magazine, taken by photographer Kristiina Wilson. The notpolas as she call them herself are lovely rectangles with wooden background and pale light that literally bites and ates the model... [Lire la suite]

    Barbara Palvin @ IMG (Paris) From sweet to acid to bitter to spicy. Using her sleek beauty from shade to shade, her doll features from angle to angle, Barbara Palvin offered us a unique fireworks of pictures this months. From L'Officiel to Jalouse, from the cover of the first to 20+ pages in the second. We're starting our trip in Barbara's world with our two picks from Jalouse's first story, Teddy Girl, shot by Paul Schmidt and style by Jennifer Eymere. From the heart of the 50's to next Summer, meet the new face who... [Lire la suite]

Nina Meijer @ IMG (NY, Paris) It's not because we said we're not going to do extended show reviews that we don't care about great girls. We're still obsessed with any face having potential and simply fell in love with Nina's look when we saw her first tests. IMG Paris style, like several other girls, but a very unique way to handle that aesthetic and work out the exercise. Next step was clearly on its way when we discovered she will play a part in IMG NY's show team this season with a lovely showcard that makes you hesitate:... [Lire la suite]

Julia Hafstrom @ IMG (NY) Saturday, editorial day. Back to redhead love. Julia Hafstrom, unusual beauty type with a slightly classic edge. Not the tallest girl around and not the endlessly leggy kind. As unconvetional as the description sounds, it has never prevent Julia from booking first-class jobs and building a highly remarkable portfolio. Her modeling story started with Prada and she kept the level at the same height with some Vogue Italia story by Steven Meisel. Easy beginnings, magical pictures. Latest piece to hit her...

  Dovile Virsilaite @ IMG (Milan) Raindrops and snowflakes fighting the blue boots to hit the feet. But they won't make it. Some trends are lasting against time and elements, some faces are made to embody those eternal trends. Hidden in the darkness of the second level of fashion photography, showing up as unforgettable lightnings is the everlasting night of December. We've been running this page for around three years, we should be celebrating. We did it somehow, we ate too much. We're back with green tea and... [Lire la suite]

      Viviane Orth @ Way (Brazil), IMG (NY) We miss Riga, miss Vilnius but we're cheering up with some new pieces of brazilian beauty turned blonde while giving the last touch to our super Riga-special update to be released later today or tomorrow. Southern stunner just in time to forget how much we miss the North, Viviane Orth's new hairdo and unmistakable expressions seem to announce a new season which could be a new era if we think twice. Smart evolution, step by step, or bloody revolution... who knows how the... [Lire la suite]
