Model Casting F/W 09.10

[youarearockstar]

As per Mr.Dale's thread from last season:

As every season, this thread is for discussing what you notice in the castings of this season's shows. Any trends in girls perhaps, questions about who cast what or what cast you thought was incredibly amazing or simply bad. What is different in the casts of S/S 09 compared to those of F/W 08.09? Is there really more diversity in color, faces, types of girls? Fire away!

Again, this is a thread meant to discuss the different castings for each show. To comment on ones you like, ones you didn't like and perhaps the significance of those castings on a girl's career, upcoming shows, or editorials.

Just to get this discussion rolling:

Today's BCBG show (that just wrapped moments ago) was cast by Russell Marsh. It's the first time Russell has done this show, and should be fairly indicative of the girls that he's feeling at the moment (in the same vain as Philosophy di Alberta Ferretti). My understanding is that the girls used for the shows will be primarily new faces. Should be very interesting.

Yay! Its that time of year again. Can't wait for the big shows, the big casting surprises etc..

Does he still cast for Generra as well?

[youarearockstar]

^This season, in New York anyway, I believe he's just doing:

BCBG
Herve Leger
Philosophy di Alberta Ferretti
Jonathan Saunders

What shows did Russel cast last season??

[J'ador-DioR]

He did Christopher Kane, Jaeger London, Philosophy, Armand Basi, Prada/Miu Miu and Dries Van Noten (those are the only ones i'm know about). Not sure whether he did Jonathan Saunders too last season. He usually uses the few girls he likes in most shows...like Cato for instance. Last season, she showed up at all the shows he cast.

Marni too, no?

[youarearockstar]

^My understanding is that he does not actually cast Marni, so much as he tells Lucinda Chambers who to take for the show (hence why you'll see a Prada debut-exclusive pop up at Marni and no where else). I could be wrong about that, but that's the impression I've always gotten from it.

Rag & Bone casting director was Ashley Brokaw that casted HUGE girl

[nijuyanah]

Who did the casting at Costello Tagliapietra? Almost all of the Supreme girls where in the show I think..

[1FashionVictim]

I think all the girls at that show were signed with Supreme/Women except Morwenna but she probably signed with Women/Supreme along with a lot of 1MM girls.
