Alexander Wang's All Star Cast

What do Maria Bradley, Aymeline Valade, Britt Maren, Mirte Maas, Freja Beha Erichsen, and Raquel Zimmermann all have in common? Well, they were all marked for success by designer Alexander Wang who selected each model previously to open for his collections. With all eyes firmly cast on Wang's  Fall/Winter 2012 show on Saturday, Danish newcomer Nadja Bender emerged in opening slot, as the model who will be most coveted for the season ahead. 

As is the case at Alexander Wang, the show's line-up consisted of an all-star mix of newcomers, established models and iconic faces. Nineties supermodels Shalom Harlow, Gisele Bundchen, Karolina Kurkova, Carmen Kass, Querelle Jansen, Frankie Rayder and Elise Crombez were joined by the current generation of stars; Abbey Lee Kershaw, Anja Rubik, Joan Smalls, Natasha Poly, Karmen Pedaru, Jourdan Dunn, Aymeline Valade and Liu Wen. Amongst such a stellar line-up of talent, a new generation of models emerged from the fray unscathed. Lara Mullen, Maria Bradley, Kati Nescher, Ava Smith, Josefien Rodermans, Laura Kampman, and Nadja Bender looked right at home amongst the seasoned pros.
