Supermodel Charo Ronquillo in Ford International’s Top 10 list

Charo Ronquillo, Filipina supermodel
Looks like there’s no stopping Filipina Supermodel Charo Ronquillo from conquering the world.
Over the weekend, prestigious international fashion magazine Vogue released its Top 10 list of Ford’s Supermodel of the World competition finalists who “are making it big” around the world and our very own Filipina Supermodel from Laguna ranked No. 4.
The website, vogue.com carried it in their daily news section. You can check out this link http://www.vogue.co.uk/news/daily/090827-ford-models-search/gallery.aspx and see for yourself.
The website also contained the following information on Charo Ronquillo:
“Charo joined and won the Supermodel of World Philippines Search in 2005 when she was just 17 years old. She went on to the Supermodel of the World Finals the following year in New York City and placed third, securing a $100,000 contract with Ford Models. Since her win, Charo has graced the catwalks of New York Fashion Week for designers including LaCoste, Nanette Lapre, Maria Cornejo, Tory Burch, Antonio Berardi, Kenneth Cole, Mac Cosmetics, Barbie Collection, Sisley and Benetton and has secured many high profile editorials.”
The other nine Supermodels of the World in the Top 10 list are: UK-born model Alexina Graham, Brazilian model Camila Finn, Chanel Iman, Kang Seung-Hyun, Canadian model Kate Somers, Brazilians Liliane Ferrarezi and Luciana Curtis, Ukrainian Nataliya Gotsii, and Puerto Rican Vanessa De Assis.
Charo continues to make waves in the international fashion scene. She currently appears in a huge billboard advertisement for Target in downtown Los Angeles, as well as in Express Boutiques. She will soon be gracing the covers of Vogue India.
Charo was home recently to grace the Philippine Fashion Week at the SMX Convention Center at the Mall of Asia.

Charo on The Early Show
Sarah Haight from Women's Wear Daily explains a few looks with Chris Wragge for some warmer clothes to wear when a chill hits the air.

Thanks for that clip Alex08. Good exposure for Charo but very underwhelming. She seems to register better on print than on the runway or in this case, the plaza outside the CBS building on 5th Avenue.
NY Fashion Week is on its 2nd half already and its not a good sign when the designers she walked for in the past seasons (Tahari, Cornejo, Lacoste) didn't hire her services for a second time. The quantity and the quality of the girls out there far outweigh the demand I guess.

To be fair to Ford, they have a reputation to protect especially now that they don't reign supreme anymore in the model agency world.
Would you let a model that has tjmaxx, target, macys and david's bridal tearsheets on her portfolio be in your show package?
Exactly!

wow, i didnt know that Charo has a TFS thread? she's good yes, but she still needs that "wow factor" if you know what i mean? hope she gets a slot to some internationally well-known brands like Jacobs, Vuitton, D2, Lanvin..
and if ever Charo knows this, KEEP IT UP GIRL!

Except for a much rounder face, Charo's look hasn't changed a whole lot since she placed 3rd at the SOTW finals some 4 years ago. In a business where re-invention is key, perhaps she should drop the one dimensional hairstyle, go crazy and create buzz by sporting a new do. Think Daul, Tao, Iris and Caroline!
Of course, what worked for them doesn't necessarily mean it'll work for Charo too and let's be candid.....at this point, Caroline Trentini would still be jumping all over the pages of US Vogue even if instead of getting big, bold bangs, she had perm or had a Daul Kim like bob.

This forum is more than just a repository where y'all can cut and paste photos and articles on Charo. It is a forum where we can share opinions, have discussions, exchange ideas etc. Most threads on other models have quite healthy debates so let's hear more from you fans of Charo out there. It has just been me and ateguy who've put into words what we think of Charo, lately.
Didn't you post pictures from the Poleci presentation one page back?
That should count for something.New York Fashion Week Spring 2010 Collections

maybe people has nothing more to say about charo that's y? but yeah...this forum lacks discussions, sometimes when someone posts images/articles, no one cares.
