Another shot of the gorgeous Austria at Philosophy...someone get her to Europe as soon as humanly/'agent-ly' possible!

Philosophy di Alberta Ferretti F/W 08.09:

She looks great on the runway!

Oh, wow! I wonder what the Ford people are thinking right now?

How could you NOT sign her?

 

[J'ador-DioR]

Rumors circulating about a Prada exclusive. Philosophy is a good indicator as it was cast by Russel Marsh, who also casts Prada and Miu Miu.

If she does happen to be on an European exclusive with Prada/Miu Miu..i really hope they are not just using her to make some of sort of a statement. And yes...Ford models have messed up really badly. Maybe it's Austria herself who has chosen to sign with IMG. I don't think that Ford would pass her up just like that.

I fell in love with her the moment I set my eyes on her during the ford smotw competition. I hope she gets Prada exclusive and maybe even opens! She would change the industry! Chanel who? Austria is in the house!

^I knew someone would bring Chanel up

 

[FashionBoy86]

haha i feel so sorry for ford models!!! what if she gets the prada exclusive? haha

 

[Deleted member 103203]

very beautiful, how tall is she, she looks about 5"11

 

[Common_1031]

IMG has her as 5'101/2

 

[Deleted member 103203]

wow she's tall she looks more ethiopian to me, gosh she's really pretty

As much as I love Austria, I hate the airbrushing that they did to her in the latter of these pictures. It takes away all of her quirkiness and most of her unique coloring, and leave her looking a little empty...

Still, I have plenty of faith in Austria's potential for the success!

^i agree. she has an old-soul weariness about her that's a big part of her appeal. they've airbrushed that completely away in the last four of these pics.

 

[Common_1031]

I have Faith in her too...i think she could do good in milan and paris

Her name on IMG is now Austria Alcantara.

 

[youarearockstar]

^ Interesting...I'm going to change the title to Austria Ulloa Alcantara temporarily. That way, those that know her as Ulloa won't try and create new threads for her.

Wow...I'm incredibly impressed. A girl hasn't stunned me like this since I saw Bruna Tenorio. She would do well at Prada, I can completely see her in the cast so I hope Miuccia and Marsh don't pass this one up. And another mistake you can add to FORD.

 

[aquatine]

they used my pics in that cronicadigital.com.do report

 

[yourbestfriend]

congrats aquatine. I noticed your images on a showcard too

Here's a video of Austria giving a tour of the Dominican for FORD.
She's 15 and in the 11th grade, so i'm assuming she will be 16 later this year.
