Gemma Ward

I seriously doubt she will show up..

But i hope she does!!!!!

 

[Legolas]

Actually a showcard is a bigger ray of hope... and why there's people talking about a Prada camp in the last pages? are there rumors from trustworthy sources or something?

 

[happycanadian]

no, Legolas - unfortunately there aren't any real rumours or trustworthy sources or anything real that suggests a Prada campaign, or any campaign for that matter. it's all just wishful thinking at this point. until we actually get to see her modeling again.

It´s good to see her showcard for AFW. Let´s wait and see what happens.

As much as I'd love to see her at Fashion Week I highly doubt any Australian designers would spend the money it would cost to have someone like her walk.

Well actually Trevor Stones, the creative director of Alex Perry posted an instagram picture of Gemma's show card. So there is definitely a real possibility of Gemma walking. Despite being an icon, Gemma is starting from scratch again.

No, it's an super-old picture from 2007 that was cropped and "instagramed".

Will Gemma Ward make an appearance on the MBFWA runways?
Overnight, Ward's IMG Models Australia showcard, along with Kerr's, garnered some viral momentum after they were Instagrammed by Sydney PR agency Mother and Father PR.
At this stage it is unlikely, we hear, that Ward will make any runway appearances during MBFWA. Various strategic "front row" sorties are more likely.

Sad but at least we know what is happening now, poor girl.
Warding off the spotlight
March 30, 2013

Where's Gemma? For months, rumours that former Australian supermodel Gemma Ward would soon be making her comeback have been falling off the most immaculate lips in the business.
This week, it was speculated she would make a return to Australian Fashion Week but in the front row rather than on the catwalk.
PS hears her modelling comeback may have hit a snag. It is understood Ward had been booked for a major shoot with Vogue Australia, however, the model suddenly pulled out. Editor-in-chief Edwina McCann declined to comment or be drawn on speculation about the Ward shoot - however, the fashion business has been buzzing with gossip that Ward was simply not ''Vogue-ready''.
Last month, Ward's manager at IMG, Danielle Ragenard, hosed down speculation Ward had been ordered to lose weight before the Vogue shoot, one rumour claiming she had been told to ''drop two dress sizes''. Ragenard shot down the rumours but remained evasive about the specifics of Ward's comeback, assuring PS only that her charge would be ''looking spectacular''.

Ward was spotted on the northern beaches in January and was said to be adhering to a strict diet and exercise regimen. The latest rumours claim she has been at a health retreat in Thailand.
In 2004, Ward was at the peak of the cutthroat international modelling game, earning about $4 million a year and the star feature for the biggest names in fashion on the planet. She opted out of the spotlight after the death of boyfriend Heath Ledger in 2008 and the Perth-born beauty, who was discovered when she was just 14, came under incredible scrutiny after she was photographed in 2010 having gained a few pounds.
Once a regular on the Sydney party circuit, she has missed several events she was expected to attend in recent months, including the AACTA Awards and the new Christian Dior boutique opening, further fuelling speculation her comeback was not going to plan.
But with such scrutiny, who could blame her for being a little camera shy?

Sorry guys didn't even think about forum rules before I posted that! I'm assuming it will be deleted so here is the link for what is going on with Gemma for when it does

Ugh, makes me so angry, who cares if she isn't perfect. She is an icon, Vogue Aus should feel lucky to shoot her.

Well it did say Gemma pulled out rather than Vogue Aus having issue.
Maybe Gemma is just wanting a little more time to be in tip top shape to give her comeback a real go.
My optimistic side says this is all for publicity for Vogue and Australian Fashion Week and that Gemma has already scored the cover!

Oh, it's so sad ;C
