sports illustrated: Too Hot to Handle

Today I discovered an incredibly exciting modelling prospect in the guise of Silent Model's newest recruit Zoi Mantakanis. Hailing from Karlskrona in Sweden, seventeen year old Mantzakanis owes her extraordinary dark, brooding looks to her Greek and Swedish lineage. Standing at 175 cm, Mantzakanis' angelic face and voluptuous pout conjures up images of iconic models Brooke Shields and Gia Carangi. The lethal combination of Mantakanis' va-va-voom physique and her pretty baby face is simply mesmerising and marketable. I am particularly enthused about Mantzakanis because even though her face looks vaguely familiar, her looks are distinctly individual and unlike any other model that I have seen in recent times. It will be interesting to see if casting directors will be transfixed by Mantzakanis in the lead up to the Spring/Summer collections in September.
