Katrina Karlina is the third lucky one. The epitome of a Ford-girl, isn't she ? While Megija caught attention with her distant gaze and smart attitude, Katrina Karlina's rock'n'roll mood didn't remain unnoticed for long. Black hair and piercing eyes (sorry if it's sounds cliché but it's just the way it is) immediately put her on every list as well. But what makes her so special is most likely all the energy she put during the whole event. From the moment she crossed the doors of the casting room till the last minute of the finale.
I saw a line-up of the girls before seeing this on FDIB. Despite the bad quality of the image saw on that other site, she really stood out. It's hard to know what she's like from this one photo, but I'll be watching for more.

Good girls go to heaven, bad girls go everywhere. Let her be a bad one and let her go first to Sao Paulo. Then everywhere else is waiting for her. Crow-black hair and delicate pale skin, tons of energy and huge, classy smiles (and so on), Katrina Karlina certainly embodies the kind of beauty Ford is striving for at the moment. So, seeing her among the winners simply makes sense and gives you a little more faith in the agency's vision. A unique girl with some universal appeal. Catch her if you can...
We are proud to announce the winner and six runners-up for the 2009 Ford Models’ Supermodel of the World search. The winner of the Ford Models’ Supermodel of the World 2009 search is Karlina of Latvia (Baltics). Our runners-up in the following order are Charlene of the Philippines, Isabelle of Sweden, Olivia of the US, Maryna of Belarus, Grace of Australia, and finally Bruna of Brazil. Needless to say after five very full days of photo tests, walking lessons, judging, and of course samba it’s been an exhausting process, but not without rewards. Look for these models in next month in Fashion Week Fall 2010!
I actually think she's their best winner in years. Feline, crisp bone structure, radiant smile, effervescent personality. She seems like a cool girl who could start working right away.
^I'm going to agree with everything you said there, waffles. Definitely the best winner in a long time for me (perhaps even since Nataliya Gotsii, foe me). She's definitely gone a very particular elegance to her; something that her doppelganger Katlin Aas is missing. I'll be interested to see how Ford develops her.
