Daul Kim

Daul Kim
Kim’s already a star in her native country, South Korea, sharing the August 2007 Korean Vogue cover with Coco Rocha. She also appeared in Chinese Vogue in December 2007. And fashion ad watchers will also recognize her from last year’s fall Moschino campaign as well as H&M’s current spring prints. Already a burgeoning style icon off the runway — this novice painter was rocking thick bangs months before Kate Moss chopped her tresses — Kim's on her way to being a runway icon as well. She's scored Karl Lagerfeld's blessing, having walked in every Chanel show since fall 2007.

I have to say that sounds like an idiotic move! Unless steven meisel told her to, I can't see how this will work in her favour.

I was reading about the fading of Asian models and stumbled onto this article about Daul. The excerpt is below:

Daul Kim, 18, a Korean model also at Elite, has felt the cold shoulder. In Paris last season, she was actually told at a casting that they were only hiring white women. "I think it was so rude," Kim says. Not to worry, though. This season, Kim was named one of the "Top 10 Models to Watch" by New York Magazine and is, according to her agent, "surging a bit in popularity."

That must have been about the Undercover casting. Strange, considering it is a Japanese brand...
