1. Wylie Hays - After a pretty strong start in NY (Wang & Proenza) I was hoping she would pick up some good shows in Milan/Paris too but she only did Missoni... Apparently her walk is really bad so perhaps that's why, hopefully she improves and we see her more next season
2. Kelly Gale - Was also hoping she would do better in Milan/Paris, she is stunning!
3. Alexandra Martynova - she's amazing
4. Vanessa Axente - my favourite face of the season new or not, she's extraordinary!
5. Tonya - it was a tossup between her and Marine Deleeuw because I like both of them and actually I think Marine might have more lasting power but I prefer Tonya
Also: Kel Markey (she's like a young Carine to me) and Marikka Juhler
Top 5 faces who have been around a few seasons or more
1. Magdalena Frackowiak - she looks like a painting in every picture taken of her
2. Jessica Stam - always happy to see Stam show up
3. Jourdan Dunn - her walk is amazing
4. Xiao Wen Ju - she fits so many aesthetics perfectly
5. Anna Selezneva - great walk, great presence always
Worst casting -- I have to agree with the rest of you, I hated Calvin Klein and Dior for their lack of diversity. But I also didn't like Louis Vuitton at all, there were a few good girls but a lot of them were bland 'not gonna be here next season' girls IMO
Best casting -- Miu Miu, Stella McCartney, Proenza Schouler

Now i will do Top 5 Current Runway Stars to me because i don't see Daria Strokous, Aymeline Valade or Kati Nescher VETERANS, veterans is for icons or girls who are in the industry from a decade or at least 5/6 years.
Daria Strokous has been in the industry since Sept 2007... so that is 5 years.
Favourite New Faces:
Stina Rapp Wastenson
Lisa Verberght
Antonina Vasylchenko
Marikka Juhler
Moa Åberg
+ Kristin Kragh Liljegren, Maja Milosavljevic, Grace Mahary, Alexandra Martynova
Favourite New-ish Faces:
Vanessa Anexte - The most striking, by far.
Ondria Hardin
Roberta Narciso
Tilda Lindstam
Not particularly liking:
Natasha Remarchuk
Josephine Le Tutour
Irina Kravchenko
Linn Arvidsson
Dajana Antic
It feels weird to me that girls like Zuzanna Bijoch and Daria Strokous can be called veterans. I guess fashion moves pretty quickly.
I can no longer imagine the new girls staying on runways for a decade.
I think there are exactly three girls that I see staying on the runways for a decadde and estabilishing themselves: Aymeline Valade, Kel Markey (though I don't particularly like her) and Maria Bradley.
The rest of them will dissapear in about five years time.
