Model Call: New York's Finest
When the gold curtain came down Thursday night at Marc Jacobs, it was official: the New York shows had come to an end. But for the girls who walk in them, it was just the beginning. We caught up with three ubiquitous catwalkers before they jetted off to Europe for yet another round of castings.

The New York shows are over. How do you feel?
One down, three to go. London, Milan, Paris, here we come.
What outfit did you enjoy wearing the most?
My pajamas.
What was the best trade or goodie bag swag you’ve gotten?
I’ve been too busy to really look at my trade. I can’t wait to go through it after fashion month.
What show had the best catering?
Hard to say. Once you’re backstage you just eat whatever is left.
What was been the best moment?
Seeing all my friends and all the people I’ve worked with. It’s like a reunion.
