She is listed as 5'11" to 5'11.5" but I bet she's taller, she always stands out in a crowd.

She stands out in both the Armani and Givenchy crowds...seemingly without effort. Gah, give this girl some more print work, seriously! She deserves so much more than she's getting now.

^ It's about damn time! Congratulations Maria! I can't wait for her shot to come out.

What may attract as much attention as the unexpected Badu cameo is the fact that all of the campaign’s female models are women of color (the models Maria Borges, newcomer Riley, and Asia Chow). It follows a season with a noticeable uptick in the use of models of color on the runway, following scathing condemnations of homogeneity in fashion from Bethann Hardison and Iman, sounding off from certain casting directors, and coverage of the issue in The New York Times.

“There was a lot of talk this season in fashion,” Tisci said. “Me, I was one of the persons who ended up not being touched by this. I discovered Joan Smalls, I discovered Maria [Borges]. I discovered a lot of black girls, and I’ve been always supporting them. For me, I grew up in a family and I grew up in a culture, an education, that we all are the same.” (He was already working on the collection, and had Badu in mind, when the first articles came out.)

Maria at 25:51 Just look at that piercing gaze and those stems!

^ Hot damn, Maria looks surreal from that angle! I wish she had done the kissy face or just flash that gorgeous smile instead of a shh lol. But whatever, she looks amazing.
