Karen Elson

[Kanna]

I've never heard about her of being mean or arrogant since I started to like her.
Magazines rarely flatter a model with faking her personality on the paper, at least Korean mags which have said Karen is always sweet.
Well, I don't think it's really important. Even if she was not a kind person, I wouldn't care about it, but keep on loving her - maybe I'm so fanatical - but it's true that her personality makes her much more radiant, and it explains why she has been getting along with many people related to the fashion business.

Thanks again for sharing your experience, daisies.
If you have a chance to meet her once again, please tell her that here in TFS are many fans of her who love and always support her, even in Korea.

Thanks again daisies

Her personality seems to come across well in all her photos. She isn't just another fill-in-the-blank model. I think she's going to continue to have a long career ahead of her.

Most of the bad things I've read about Karen have come from blogs like The Modern Age, which is made up of White Stripes fans, so I'd imagine anything bad said about her is said out of jealousy.

^ Yeah, I definitely get a sense of spite and jealousy from the comments about Karen on The Modern Age. Everyone has their bad days and their faults, but since the overwhelming impression from those who have met Karen is positive, I think she's probably a sweet girl most of the time (and who on Earth can be sweet all of the time? ). From what I've read about her I get the idea that she's generally considered easy to work with, and not just because she's good at her job, but because people tend to enjoy her personality.

isn't she a wife of that guy from The White Stripes?

Thanks, NickiLee! I especially love the first two you posted. Karen's face looks so especially beautiful when she's pregnant, and I love her profile.

 

[Kanna]

Her profile picture is really beautiful, indeed. Thanks for the pics, NickiLee

 

[Glittery_Bug]

Wow, she is just gorgeous! That hair!

 

[NickiLee]

I wonder if Karen will join the Citizens Band at the Art Parade this year. I know she probably won't be walking during fashion week, but maybe she will make some kind of appearance.

 

[Kanna]

^ There wasn't her showcard on DNA homepage, so I don't think she will make an appearance in any collections for the upcoming season..
I hope she will take part in the parade.

(I'm so happy to put my 5000th post here! hehe )

Can anyone tell me more about Karen's music, and where I could hear some of it online?

I haven't seen this cover posted before, what month is it from? In case I've missed it can someone link me to a bigger version possible editorial. Thanks a lot!

I didn't expect her to, but maybe she will attend some of the shows as an audience member.
