Asian Faces In High Fashion

Never mind, Radhika's username still the same and works. Weird.





One last thing: While designers probably get the last word, but sometimes or maybe it's the CD that just doesn't have the best interpretation when it comes to casting.

Though, sure they know best.

At least seven Asian at Marni. D&G should be good too.


If Michelle still cast Hilfiger, and it's a universal theme with all kinds of model, then looking forward to it. She has to step it up like other CDs. She does have influence, no? Either way she ain't that bad, but her cast has't been impressive for the past few seasons, quantity-wise.



Last day. No big opening/closing for Milan...

Sora has no showcard from her agency, so I am assuming she is a Louis Vuitton exclusive again.

Will be interesting to see how Paris will play out without Sora or Jing.
 
^ With those two take into account - would like to see more girls then. Believe last season wasn't the best (compared to FW17), despite wonderful debuts and surprises for the girls.




PDM gonna cast which Asian model for Saint Laurent. Chiharu, Issa or...?




Five at Dior. Great job for Gaoying! She's rad.

Jing has a showcard for Paris though. She didn't have one for Milan.

Happy to see Miki! Is there a reason why she only does PFW? Oh and Hyunji made her Dior debut!

I believe Hoyeon and Sohyun were at SL.

Seems like it was only Chiharu at Saint Laurent.

Interesting to not see the traditional top Asian walkers (Hoyeon, Sohyun, Yoon Young, Cong) at Dior.
 
As expected, Chiharu's the go-to Asian. Good for her, but really. So stale for the past few years.


Sohyun, Radhika, Heejung, Cong, Jing, Sora would all be fitting for YSL. Not sure as to why they don't see or feel Asian models/people could rock that kind of style/lifestyle.

Know this is just one show. Just a group of people. But this also confirm my suspicion of these folks in the fashion industry (even though I may not need to know them personally).

Perhaps they don't think Miki's ready yet? Or not much interest? Know that sounds ridiculous but don't know how to put it...

Plus she's not signed to London/Milan (whether that matter or not, IDK, but that could explain why)? Sure her moment will come.

It'd be interesting to see where she pops up next and different from last season.

For me there should almost always be an established/top walker, like you said, at these big shows.

You have Binx/Selena/Edie etc. there but not Cong/Yoon Young/Estelle/Mona/Wangy (or Jing/Sora). But hey, we do have Hyunji! She covered that area IMO.

And Michelle's showing her loyalty to Miki for Dior, so this is always positive. Then we have newbies a chance to shine. I like the mixture too. (But yes, we could push the cast to six/seven girls with one of the top walkers, and it'd be better!)
