Seventeen year old Marina Nery from Bahia, Brazil looks set for a killer debut season at New York Fashion Week. Represented by Ford Model Management, the 179 cm statuesque beauty was spotted at castings for ACW Worldwide and COACD in the lead up to the shows. Nery clearly impressed casting directors and designers alike, with appearances so far in eleven NYFW shows including Ohne Titel, Sachin + Babi, Carlos Miele, Cushnie et Ochs, Ruffian, LAMB, Custo Barcelona, Rachel Zoe, Lela Rose, Candela and Nicole Miller. Nery's unruly, curly tresses and her bambi-like green eyes, have drawn comparisons to nineties supermodel Brandi Quinones, who was the first woman of colour to feature in a Chanel ad campaign. Nery most recently appeared at Rio Fashion Week where she was one of the most coveted new faces, appearing in a total of 18 shows. With a few days left of NYFW, Nery has clearly emerged as one of the standout new faces of the F/W 2012 season.
