I do like Phelora even for a new model she has lots of expression and faces. She can only get better.

Her face does nothing for me, just the skin and body. SA is the right market for her.

Newface Genesis Vallejo was featured yesterday in models.com and in a matter of hours booked contracts with agencies in NY, Paris, London and Milan :p

Ataui Deng
Joan Smalls
Jourdan Dunn
Chanel Iman
Kinee Diouf
Ajuma Nasenyana
Yasmin Warsame
Sessilee Lopez
Alek Wek
Fatima Siad (i hope they give her more high-fashion spreads)
Jeneil Williams

all in no particular order.

For Men (VERY FEW):

Tyson Beckford
Ger Duany
Dominique Hollington
David Agbodji
Corey Baptiste (i think he has potential)
Nate Gill

8) Rose Cordero
9) Joan Smalls
10) Gracie Carvalho
11) Lyndsey Scott
12) Lais Ribeiro

14) Wakeema Hollis
15) Ariel Meredith
16) Ana Bela Santos (i know she doesn't do a lot of runway or eds but she's just sooo gorgeous & i don't understand why. maybe she should change agencies)
17) R'el dade

Great list! I hope to see more Sedene in the future.

does it bother anyone else that black models are STILL struggling?! i thought the mood had changed in the f/w 2010-2011 & s/s 2011-2012 fashion season but it seems to be changing back. it really IRKS me to see bland models with lackluster personalities & competent walks at best booking great shows while there's still a quota on how many if any black girls should be in a show. to me the ONLY reason to hire someone (black, white, asian, latina, middleeastern, biracial or other) should be:

a) are they pretty
b) do they fit into the clothes
c) can they walk
d) do they have a personality
e) can they portray what i'm going for (elegant, sexiness, innocence etc)

anything else is just irrelevent
