The F/W 2026.27 Show Schedules...
I am so glad she did not dye her hair dark!
It was a cool change for the cover, but I like her natural fairness....
Lara Stone the model whose Bardot-esque looks have the fashion world agog
Every so often a truly original model emerges. Lara Stone is 25 - comparatively old in an industry where most are deemed past it by the time they reach their mid-twenties. She is a relatively curvaceous British size 10, with feet that measure a six (instead of s sample size seven to eight), wispy fair hair and a noticeable gap between her two front teeth. Yet somehow its a mesmerizing combination. Stone's unique look has designers and fashion editors swooning; Prada contracted her for a semi-exclusive catwalking deal (preventing any other designer from using Stone before she walked in its a/w 09 show), and French Vogue dedicated its entire February issue to her - making the return of sultry, Brigitte Bardot-esque, womanly proportions. Born in Holland, Stone first emerged when she entered the Elite Model Look competition in 1999. She didn't win, but the Elite judges glimpsed a flicker of potential in the 15 year old, and agreed to sign her regardless. After several frustrating years her breakthrough finally came when she made it on o the books at IMG International, and a prestigious catwalk debut in Givenchy's a/w 06 couture show followed. This season has seen the renewal of contracts with Givenchy and Hugo Boss, and Stone has also been signd as the face of Jean Paul Gaultier and Jaeger - whose chief executive, Belina Earl is quick with praise for the star of its new campaign. 'Lara is stylish, confident, chic, and most important she's a real woman.'
Perhaps these defining qualities go some way towards explaining the fact that for a/w 09 Stone walked in no fewer than 14 ready to wear shows in 19 days, not to mention a further three in Paris last July, when she opened both Chanel's and Jean Paul Gaultier's haute couture shows. She might not fit the stereotype, but this certainly hasn't stopped her fro having the fashion world at her feet. Welcome to a season in the life of Lara Stone. - Esme Benjamin
