I like Alice, but that's just weird. Booking Proenza is a big deal, but otherwise she hasn't done anything of significance, really, and she'd just be one of many, many new girls on hold for Prada. But perhaps Wayne knows something we don't?

Anna Gushina is really moving up as one of the strongest contenders. Of IMG's Prada exclusives, I honestly thought she was the least likely to make a splash, so I'm rather surprised.

Some people seem to think Abbey Lee will fade in Europe, but I'm not so sure about that.

Diana Farkhullina feels like quite a safe bet, even with Milan and Paris left to go. It'd almost be shocking if she doesn't turn into a star.

Then there's Kamila Filipcikova. Very impressive so far, and that VI cover won't hurt her chances. Besides, we already know certain major Milan clients like her.

Adina Forizs has had a good enough start, and I don't think NY is her strongest market.

I'm also feeling fairly certain that Malin Ones will continue to impress in Europe.

The rest's pretty much up in the air. Alana Kuznetsova had a promising NY showing too, and girls like Aline Weber, Austria Ulloa, Natalia Schueroff will likely go on to major things in Europe, but you never know. Competition will be much tougher in Milan-Paris, and someone has to be that girl who doesn't live up to expectations.
