Cassi Van Den Dungen

[Trista]

I'd love her to go way bigger than Elite for Europe, because I know she can. She has already generated so much buzz that it would be wise for a larger agency to sign her, I was thinking Women or Marilyn in Paris.

 

[Simera]

It's amaizng she is already with an agency in NYC!
I can't wait to see how many shows she books in the upcoming season!

Bogan Cassi Van Den Dungen set to make mark in Big Apple

PROUD bogan Cassi Van Den Dungen is set to make her mark on the international fashion scene.

Just 24 hours after losing the final of Australia's Next Top Model to West Australian beauty Tahnee Atkinson, the 16-year-old wild child from Sunbury was being snapped up by top New York model agency Elite.

Van Den Dungen, who is represented by Priscilla's Model Management in Australia, has been the darling of the fashion industry since she wobbled down the catwalk in the first episode.

Agency boss Priscilla Leighton Clark said she had been inundated with emails and phone calls from New York regarding Van Den Dungen.

"Elite in New York are desperate to sign her," Leighton Clark said. "The phrase used was, 'They are completely obsessed'. Contracts are with both parties."

Van Den Dungen was recognised on Model as having unlimited potential. However her wayward behaviour, fiery temper, and her devotion to her fiance almost 10 years her senior caused serious concerns for the show's host Sarah Murdoch and model mentor Charlotte Dawson.

But Leighton Clark said she was made for high-end fashion.

"I think Cassi is incredible and a huge career is waiting for her if she wants it," she said.

"The gods are smiling on her. If everything goes according to plan, I am sure we will see Cassi in a Gucci campaign."

The final of Australia's Next Top Model attracted a record viewing audience for Foxtel.

More than 340,000 fans watched the live final, delivering Fox 8's highest rating.

^^^^ Cassi is already assured world domination.

Gucci? hold on second why this particular brand? they could have mentioned ANY brand but they said Gucci and she was SURE. i am very happy . At this point i don't even care anymore if she is lost the show. This is SO much better

 

[Trista]

I totally have to agree, I'm actually glad in a way because she is getting way more buzz and exposure than she would if she was the winner. Oh and Gucci? She is absolutely made for it. It would be lovely if she was a Gucci exclusive.

 

[Bamhutt]

Yeah, I'm wondering why Priscilla mentioned Gucci, it must be a good sign

 

[Trista]

I don't think she would have mentioned it if there wasn't something big coming.

 

[cultstatus]

This is all sounding very promising! It does seem strange that PLC would throw that name out there, but we will have to wait and see

 

[Nils]

This girl is going to give Alice a run for her money

 

[cultstatus]

I think she will be much bigger than Alice, if she truely wants this career.

 

[daggertrepe]

Cassi said in an interview she wants to wait till brad gets more settled in his job to move to NY. Not sure which interview, but yeah. Hopefully someone can pursuade her to follow her dream first. She won't be young forever!

 

[retailqueen]

I don't see it s the end of the world if she doesn't go to NY even though it's a good opportunity. Developing and building her portfolio and even waiting for a better agency might be better in the long run.

On the other hand i am also selfish and want to see her ASAP on the runway.

Me too.

But you know Priscilla is going to push her, even beg her, to start now.

I understand her too. It's puppy love. He is probably her first real boyfriend so she is extremely smitten and it will be difficult with out him. But that shall pass and her behavior will change as she matures.

If she can get something like Gucci so quickly I think it will only be a short amount of time before she gets some largers agency in Paris.

 

[daggertrepe]

I'm just worried that her boyfriend is holding her back.
