They're probrably extensions, it doesn't look quite as long in the previous shows. I'm glad to see Chanel is stepping it up, and making appearences in more shows!

I can't see the Monique Lhuilier image, try saving it and reuploading it rather than hotlinking.

And OMG, that candid with Tanya is SO cute !

 

[Gaultier_Bandit]

She has a great ed and interview in March's i-D. Shot by Hans Feurer, styled by Erika Kurihara.

She seems very confident. Some points from the article:

*"There aren't many black girls around but I'm hoping to help bring that back. Designers had what they wanted for Spring/Summer but I'm hoping to see a change this time. It is fashion, after all."

*Her mum used to be a designer, apparently.

*She used to play basketball and "was always one of the best".

*"I can call [Tyra] with any questions. She's from Cali too so we know each other, we have each others' back."

*"You don't have to be a model to be my friend - you just have to be cool to hang out with." (Well, that's a relief!)

*"I count down the days to when the magazines come out. I love having my picture taken - I used to have this pose with my head tilted to one side when I was younger."

*Her fave music is pop: Britney, Gwen and Fergalicious

*"[Demarchelier] is so fast and his work is so good. I love seeing the pictures he does. I get into any weird poses he tells me to."

*"I'm into modelling 100%. I want to open all the shows."

*She aspires to be an actor: "I'm a California girl, y'know? That's where the movie stars come from."

Classic.

Tough, tribal, unusual, colourful, movement-orientated, set outside (on the street, beach), not posey, fierce.
