Laila and Friends

 
 
  Laila Pudule, Kaya Wilkins and Deana Noop @ FM (London), Heather Koenitzer and Anna Tatton @ Bookings (London)

The Return of the Independent Spirit. A title has never been that true. True to the atmosphere, true to the magazine (POP's brand new version), to the photographer Jason Evans and to all the young models featured in this story. As this is where we always put the strongest emphasis, we'll focus on the casting once again. Three FM girls including Laila Pudule (from 2B Models in Latvia and among our recent choices of Lexposed Faces), Kaya Wilkins (also recently featured, coming from Heartbreak Models in Norway) and an Estonian on the rise from EMA, Deana Noop. And two more girls from Bookings: Heather Koenitzer (featured earlier this Summer, from Ford San Francisco) and red-haired beauty to watch Anna Tatton. Makes a sensational team relying on freshness with a true inventive, creative spirit. Exactly what we are looking for (and waiting for) this Fall, no matter if it's indenpendent and/or spirited as long as it means the return of autumnal excitement.
