New Kids On the Block

The folks over at COACD have been working around the clock in the lead up to New York Fashion Week sifting through the new faces on offer for this season. Judging by the polaroids featured on COACD's twitter page from castings held over the past month, the competition will be extreme with exciting  modelling prospects heralding from the Dominican Republic, the Netherlands, China, France, Brazil, Trinidad and the USA. The new girls this season have a distinctly United Nations vibe, with "good old fashioned - pretty" being the common denominator. Whether it be the va-va-voom allure of Portuguese bombshell Sara Sampaio or the Parisian chic of Vitoria Tuaz and the all-American wholesome looks of Josilyn Williams, what all of these girls possess is a commercial appeal and accessibility which casting agents will no doubt be tapping into to help put a smile on consumer's faces.

Casting Frenzy

With New York Fashion Week in full speed, a legion of impossibly beautiful and statuesque models have been witnessed traipsing all over Manhattan amidst a casting frenzy. A gazillion pretty faces turned out last Sunday for Andrew Weir's ACW casting at the Hudson Hotel, and with client roster including Hugo Boss, Viktor & Rolf, Thakoon, Hussein Chalayan and Ralph Lauren, the competition to impress Weir and his team was intense. Seasoned veterans Trish Goff and Marcelle Bittar were in attendance whilst newcomers Marihenny Passible, Xiao Wen Ju, Priscilla Kabeya, Allaire and Herieth Paul jockeyed to stand out from the pack. With each season brings a new pool of talent and I look forward to seeing which girls sink or swim.
