i like that she is not into herself at all, especially when people are labeling her as "supermodel." it would be easy to get a big head.
 
^ I know :( It was just a promo that I found on the Toronto Fashion Week website...You should try saving it and then opening it in Pant and zooming in on the print..that might wirk :)
 
I agree with her (heather). It would be interresting to see more Fashion shows with old and new Canadian Supermodel (like Daria, Linda, Shalom, Jessica, Tasha, Coco Rocha, Lisa, Irina, Yasmine, Yasmeen G., Maria D., Monica V. and more) in Canada (especially in Montreal, because it's closer to me than Toronto). Probably those shows cost a lot more than what do(money money money!!!)
 
Well, if you squint you can kinda read it. some parts are a little too blurry though. Here's what I think it said:

"A model of nationalism"
Supermodel Heather Marks says Canadians should do more shows at home

By Joanne (Something)

Heather Marks may have New York, Paris, and Milan at her feet, but she's still a Canadian first and a Calgary girl at heart.

So when the young supermodel was asked to help out a homegrown colleague, of course she said yes.

Last night, she (something) exclusively for Calgary designer Paul Hardy and became the first top model to walk the runway of Toronto fashion week.

"It's always fun to work with Canadians and friends," Marks, 16, said yesterday afternoon as she was being fitted into one of Hardy's white, beaded (something) evening gowns.

"It's good to help people out and Paul's such a great guy. It's fun, I'm happy to be here," she said.

The absence of Canada's best models from it's biggest fashion event - girls like Daria Werbowy, Jessica Stam, Lisa Cant, and even '90s icon Linda Evanglista - has been one of the biggest (something) of what is now known as L'Oreal Fashion Week. Until now.

"I think the girls who are from Canada should come back home. Like, I know a lot of friends from Brazil, and they always go back to Brazil for the shows," Marks said.

It's not as if Marks' schedule isn't fully packed, because it is. she just finished a season of (#) shows ("It was mad", she said), took a quick break at home and only stopped briefly in Toronto on her way back to New York.

"I wanted this to happen so bad," said Kelly Streit, president of Mode Models, Marks's Calgary based agency, and the man who discovered her two years ago. "It wasn't easy, because she's going from here to shoot Vogue with Steven Miesel.

"I want Toronto to see Calgary," he added, swinging his arm around the room, at Giovanni Model Management. "It's all Calgary in here."

True enough, as Hardy was fitting Marks in the dresses she would wear in a few hours at the Liberty Grand, Calgary Jewlery designer (something) Davidson was ... [I didn't bother translating this part, nothing about Heather, mostly stuff about this other Calgary designer]

"I think Calgarians tend to rally together in a common good, as opposed to being competitive against each other," Hardy said.

... [more stuff not related to Heather, mostly about Calgary's fashion people]...

"I think it's really great that we're all here for the shows," Marks said.

"I think we're all very supportive of each other," she added. "if you're from Calgary, you've just got to help out the other Calgarians."

And she knows that wherever her career takes her, she'll always call Calgary home.

"I'm trying to go back and forth as much as I can," she said. "I always have to go home for that little (something)."

And on another interesting note, from another article while I was trying to find this one online: "Hardy and Marks have been friends since she was 12 (she’s now 16) and practiced her walk in Hardy’s shows long before she made it on the international stage."

Maria Dvirnik walked a Toronto show, she opened and closed Mackage. Her mother agency, Elmer Olsen Models, provided 17 models for that show and they walked for FREE. I think EOM got advertising rights though.

Also, Lisa Cant walked for Pink Tartan the same season Heather walked for Paul Hardy: "Calgarian model Lisa Cant saved the show—she was one of the few who could walk in her heels. As if Pink Tartan and the superpowers behind the label weren’t enough to draw a crowd, this rising star brought her own buzz."

Thanks Caroliiine for the specifications and the translation of Heather's article. I would like to see those models in Montréal too!!! but I think there's a competition between Toronto & Montréal (as usual) and I think Toronto win!
