Weatherproof!
Olga Ovchynnikova @ Supreme (NY)
Rain and wind are our guilty pleasures even when everyone is looking for blue sky but we can't help thinking Olga Ovchynnikova might have some sunny days ahead of her and we're quite pleased with this idea. Not intending she's going on vacation, though: you should see her soon, working hard and walking fast come New York Fashion Week. Ready for the frenzy, equipped with freshly taken polaroids and quite a mysterious look that should help her during that tough battle called castings. We'll keep our fingers crossed of course, even under clouds and raindrops and will watch carefully how she translates her mysteries into magical modeling moments. Because this is basically the point with Olga, the way she manages to keep some mysterious aura surrounding her rather classical character. Impossible to guess where she's from before you read her last name. Impossible to tell if her poses and expressions are carefree and natural or if she's using some innate talents to work out polaroids as a performance. Doesn't matter much in the end provided the results are amazing but it was hard not to ask ourselves where her sullen beauty takes its roots. Captivating story with no beginning and hopefully no end as well. Oh, and just in case you're interested in that detail: Olga was one of the Fall 2010 Givenchy girls in Paris (with Major), joining the diversified cast as its most subtle member.
