Charo Ronquillo

Great finds Elytrae, thanks!! Google can't hold a candle to your search engines.

The first and third photos from her photo shoot two Januaries ago look fantastic, don't they? I remember seeing a blown up version of that first photo at the models.com coverage of the competition finals.

That Glamour photo is from the September 2007 issue with Claire Danes, Queen Latifah and Mariska Hargitay on the cover. The photo's available both in the magazine (full page) and its website.

^ Thanks! What makeover do you suggest?

John Caplan, the President of Ford Models, spoke to Beet TV about Ford's expansion into digital media and guess whose card he reached for?

just saw the clip and interview with Caplan? So how exactly is this going to help the models get the A-list bookings? How is this going to keep girls like Cameron, Suzanne, Alison etc from defecting to other shops?

Charo is back on youtube! A Ford Models youtube this time. Check her out quick!

Ford likes to call itself the world's most prestigious modelling agency but is it really? I say, the proof is in the pudding. I could count on one hand the number of A list models in their stable. There's Camilla, Nataliya, Flavia and their rising star Chanel and ? The first two, Supermodel winners both, and their place in the A List is even up for negotiation, har, har, har!

The show packages from the major agencies are already starting to come out.....hope to see her, front and center, at Ford's.

Unfortunately, it didn't happen. Better luck in Paris?

Hope springs eternal Elytrae, hope springs eternal. If it's any consolation to Charo, only Chanel from her batch made it to this season's fashion week show package.

That's great to hear. Please post some of your pictures when you have the chance. You shot her for Time Out New York, right?

Here's Charo in an ad for Supermodel of the World Philippines. The picture looks like it's from the shoot she did for Lorena Calma. Well, ateguy, that's what she'd look like with a hair makeover. She pulls it off pretty well.

This girl needs more coverage! She can switch between commercial and high fashion within a snap of her fingers!

 

[ateguy]

I assumed that because she made it to the Ann Taylor website that she would also get an invite to walk for their runway show.....sadly, the invite got lost in the mail (I'm trying to convince myself that).

Anyway, she has new photos in the AT site. She looked particularly fetching wearing those head accessories.

Ateguy, you're right, she looks very pretty in her new pictures for Ann Taylor Loft.

And funkalicious, I agree, it would be great to see her receive more coverage. Here's another shot of her (well, I'm assuming it's her) by Christopher Bush:

Great finds Elytrae, thanks.

She definitely has a rocking body. I wonder if her agents have thought of sending her to audition for those Abercrombie shoots. I realize that its an almost always a lily-white affair but its always worth a try.
