Very great news for Danielle. She had a great season, and I was hoping that she would transfer that into at least one campaign, but this is great! She'll be perfect for MJ.

Eh "safe bet" models are like fillers. I'm not surprised there wasn't much on her last season. The legs are the only thing that's really annoying me. Too skinny, no shape.

 

[julesrules815]

She looks friggin amazing at Dior! Her headpiece is sort of channeling Wonder Woman, no?

^^Oh I would hadly go as far as to call her a filler model. Yes, her facial features are not as individually defined as some new faces out there, but I think she's still a rather striking and unique girl. Her bone structure is amazing, and her nose is so cute.

Anyhow, so called "filler" models, tend to not book campaigns.

 

[julesrules815]

^I agree!! Also, I have a feeling she is incredibly gorgeous in person!

Incredibly beautiful shot right there! I love her profile. Thanks Jules!

This girl needs more editorial work. Hopefully her MJ campaign will open more doors for her. Love that profile shot as well.

shes so plain jane to me....
anyone else feel the same??

 

[youarearockstar]

^Well apparently post #88 feels the same way, but that seems to be about it.

Look, I could go into why I appreciate her beauty again, but defending her subjective appeal isn't my job, nor the intent of any of these threads (though feel free to hop on over to Model's Who's Appeal You'll Never Get in the Etc. forum). Its in the eye of the beholder and all that cliche stuff. Still, I'm sure the success of her recent, first season mind you, bookings are not a result of the fashion community finding her to be "plain jane" or "filler."

I love this pic!

why not

^Oooh, Jules I really like that picture! Nice to see something new from her! Thanks.

Yes. There's a reason why she never made it until now, when plain models is an actual trend. But she's a solid runway model.

Danielle is featured in this month's Model Mania @ Hint Mag:

[FONT=Arial,Helvetica][SIZE=-1]Alabama babe Danielle Hamm has had one hot season. At the collections, she walked for Dolce & Gabbana, Burberry, Marc Jacobs and Marni, and hit cover-girl status for Amica magazine. She's also a Marc Jacobs groupie, even appearing in his spring campaign, shot by Juergen Teller. It's no surprise that the industry hearts the southerner born on Valentine's Day. [/SIZE][/FONT]
