I was going through Bauwens withdrawl, so here's a couple super HQs from backstage at Alexander McQueen! I still really think she needs to be a part of this season's Nina Ricci campaign.

Jill is in the new issue of Muse Magazine... they did a story on all the new IT girls!!!!

 

[ediewarhol]

Good for Jill.

 

[Inaya]

Does anyone have Muse to scan it for us?

 

[youarearockstar]

^Well, I believe that Shannan's editorial for Muse was recently scanned so I would have to imagine that it's only a matter of time before that editorial is available. In the meantime I uploaded a few backstage shots I had saved of Jill to hold us over Inaya!

More of Jill and her scandalous denim shorts. A little matchy for me, but Jill definitely has her own sense of personal style, which is certainly refreshing!

 

[ediewarhol]

God. I love those shorts. She just makes them cute.

 

[Inaya]

What a sassy young lady

Thanks for the new photos, yaars

[ediewarhol]

AW. I just noticed your signature. Wow. I am slow. But, yes I am glad you are in this wonderful thread now. Jill is way to pretty not to show off to all my favorites.

04.15.08 MODEL OF THE WEEK: JILL BAUWENS
The Belgian teenager with a killer sense of style is setting NYC ablaze

Jill Bauwens (Ford NY)

Age: 18

Hometown: Antwerp, Belgium

Discovered: On the street by Tom Van Dorpen of Dominique.

Favorite food: Desserts—dame blanche, tiramisu (with fruit or cinnamon, not always coffee), eclairs, lots of Belgian chocolate, and American cheesecake!

Who are your heroes? My sister who is eleven months older than me and studies fashion in Paris. She's my role model and like a second mother to me. I live with her in Paris and when I'm in New York, she calls me every day. She's so supportive and I wouldn't know what to do without her.

What is your earliest fashion memory? When I was 8 or 9, I was designing with my friends Sarah and Steffi. We had our own label called SaJiSte.

Where do you see yourself in ten years? I just want to succeed in something, whether it's modeling or any other field. I want to love what I do!

Look for Jill in an upcoming issue of Numéro, photographed by Liz Collins.

I cannot wait to see Jill in Numéro!

 

[Inaya]

Aww she seems so sweet. Thanks for posting it! The SaJiSte story is so adorable

Also that second akris backstage shot... stunning!

 

[ediewarhol]

I am seriously in love with her personal style. And she comes off so sweet.

 

[1FashionVictim]

I love that jacket.

 

[SirSunday]

She has quite the sweet tooth! A girl after my own heart. It's so nice to know that she's close with her sister too - Jill is still young but sounds so grounded, which is a great measure of her character. Her personal style rocks, too. Great article. Love the photos from Akris too, the profile shot is gorgeous.

 

[teza]

I can't say she's proven to have a killer sense of style yet, but I'm looking forward to seeing proof!
