[marlasinger]

Where is she from?

 

[rubydon]

Where is she from?

my guess is ethiopia. or maybe somalia.

Great article...( im sure it wont) but what needs to happen is that come S/s 08 advertising time big names like Dior YSL etc need to feature black models thats the ONLY way imo to fix whats happen ...you have to force it down people's throats until it becomes a norm...otherwise models like Chanel Iman will come and go
Oh BTW thanks for all the Grace Jones pic's I LOVed her ever since I saw her in Boomerang w/ Eddie Murphy and Robin gibbins ...the part that she plays is one of my hands down favorites

Anya is a stunner, but she is leaning towards the commercial-looking side.

You guys who is this model from the LA Heatherette show this year? she's my new crush! lol

 

[Gypsy_Doll]

she favors beverly johnson

 

[marlasinger]

I don't see Beverly Johnson in her but she sure is cute...in spite of that unfortunate outfit

 

[rubydon]

^i agree.

she reminds me of a younger, thinner tracy bingham. in that pic, anyway.

 

[WheresMyUmbrella]

She's adorable! Much cuter than Tracy Bingham.

Ubah, I think she's a mixture between Iman & Ayan Elmi.

The 21st century Iman has arrived! She should have her own thread. What a dynamo.

People may get upset about it, but I can't think of anyone better to be on the cover than Alessandra. She's getting more noticed in the public eye and why wouldn't she?...she's beautiful(not saying only physical appearance is important) With that said, I wasn't digging the clothes she was wearing

OOh I love Zoe! Does she have a thread? I searched and couldn't find anything. Maybe I spelled her last name wrong.
