So random but why not.

New York: Cong, Kiko, Sijia --- Chu, Chaoyu

London: Shujing, Chaoyu, Sijia --- Cong, Kiko

Milan: Chaoyu, Cong, Sijia --- Sora, Heejung

Paris: Sijia, Chaoyu, Kiko --- Jing Wen, Cong

Can you explain what this means?

 

[Prymasquous]

^ Nothing serious it's for fun. Was trying to gauge who will be the top walkers in each city, given their recent status/hype/work - mainly see if these new faces will translate onto runway this season.


You have a projection of who you think will walk the most/get cast the most?

Lovely cast at Burch! A decent blend of faces of variety (ideal if Kiran Kandola were there).

And will we see more of Ling Chen at Del Moro's shows. Probably yes...

Hoyeon, Ting, and Wangy were spotted on Jason Wu's casting board yesterday. I think Hyun Ji will be a top NY walker (although for smaller shows, unfortunately).

 

[Cute]

Jing, Chu, Cong, Xiao Wen(?), Hoyeon, Ting(?) were at Jason Wu.

 

[Prymasquous]

^ Yes at the names. His cast has been lagging for SEASONS. Why the change?


Thought Ting would actually show up at a Bitton's show instead. Appeared she got the like of other CD too! Maybe another show later.


Since Bottega is in NYC perhaps they were planning to change CD anyway. Let's see what Michelle can do while she's at the helm this season...

Oh! Don't know where's Sora, but if she's in town, she gotta show up at Bottega. Which would make a lot of sense.


And either Luping will be at Bottega or she's rehearsing for Kors...

 

[mathiaskatz]

^Sora's mentioned that she's been feeling weak and will take a month off after fashion week in Korea. But she was at her agency so she's definitely in NYC. She's a shoe-in for a lot of shows that happened (Jeremy Scott, Jason Wu, Tory Burch) so I'm guessing she's an exclusive (Bottega? AWang?).

I'm guessing EZ and Sohyun are also exclusives for AWang?

Kennah Lau flew to Paris, so probably Balenciaga WWE again.

 

[Cute]

EZ was at Bottega, also at Bottega was Sijia, Kohei, Hoyeon (3 top shows today!!), Jing, and some other male models I can't identify.
Exclusive watch for Sora and Sohyun!

 

[Tesanger jen]

What about Radhika Nair? Where is she?

 

[Tesanger jen]

New Indian model at elite nyc, Naomi Janumala just opened Matthew Adams Dylan show.��

 

[simon]

Sora confirmed that McQ is a campaign, and that she also got the lookbook (the shots with plain background).

 

[Prymasquous]

^^ Thank you as always! Perhaps there are more South Asian that I/we aren't familiar with.


Radhika will likely show up later at Sies Marjan, though it'd be fantastic if she were to walk AWang.

Dipti also travelled to Morocco w/ Kennah, then Paris(?) and will be in NY too. Not sure for runway or visit agency or shoot.

It'd be cool to see Madhulika, Ravyanshi and Kiran this season.

Diya Prabhakar just walked for Biphu Mohapatra.

 

[Prymasquous]

Don't want to assume much but perhaps Sora is semi-exclusive for AWang like mathiaskatz suggest.

She's going to casting too though:

And who said Michelle was going to cast Bottega. Haha. Bitton did her best I guess. But thought she would also add Ting too.
