Model Casting F/W 14.15

[kab348]

Sort of strange for Holly Rose to not show up in NY then walk House of Holland and Hunter as her first shows?

 

[TheoG]

Kristen Owens opens Mary K. that was a nice surprise

 

[cocolette]

Johnatan Saunders + GILES: Anita Bitton
Antonio Berardi: Maida & Rami

Does anybody know who was in charge of Mary Katratzou this season?

 

[Dutchhie]

Soooo Marsh with just C. Kane now in London?

 

[anlabe32]

^ Did he loose Richard Nicoll as well?

 

[Marc10]

Such a great cast a Burberry. The diversity was so on point that I didn't even bother with their cheesy Victoria's Secret moment with Bradley Cooper and whatshername.

 

[StoneSkipper]

^Indeed it was! Such a breath of fresh air from the tokenism London seems to be doing.

 

[Cold]

Great diversity indeed. I'm not very fond of Matilda Lowther, wish Malaika opened instead.

 

[Riseup]

Burberry was great, very diverse indeed.

 

[Fiercification]

Lovely cast at Burberry, although could've done with seeing Riley there and having Malaika open.

At any rate it's nice to see how faithful Bailey, Nicoli and Ananna have been to girls like Senait and Xiao Wen.

 

[naya]

Christopher Kane on the other hand... Some great girls (Sam, Malaika, Karolina), but truly awful in terms of diversity. There was 55 looks for crying out loud!

 

[TheoG]

^ I agree I wasn't going to bring it up but Russell is awful he has a great eye for girls but he is awful when it comes to diversity I can only recall Kai,Feng, Malaika... But it could others involved in the process but it's quite sad.

 

[StoneSkipper]

^^ Sad but very true. The cast would've been perfect had it not been for the absolute lack of diversity. Such a shame.

 

[Cold]

I wonder what's the deal with Riley being short, it doesn't seem to hinder girls like Anna, Sam and Marine. She would have been great at Burberry.

Good for Janica Compte for scoring CK and Burberry exclusives this season.

 

[Cold]

^ Oh, scratch that Janica isn't a Burberry exclusive. Still, good for her.

 

[masquerade]

I agree with your thoughts about publicity but not on the second point. I believe they are deemed "models" because they can get the publicity not because they are models and they would not have been signed BUT for that ability. That goes for Ireland Baldwin and Gigi Hadid at Img and Zoe Kravitz at Women, Hailey Baldwin etc etc.

Well, yes its for publicity, but I still find it arbitrary. A model in the 60s looked different from a model in the 80s who looks different than a model today. What a model looks like is constantly changing and based on arbitrary criteria

 

[Cold]

Of course Katie Grand brought back Kendall at Giles

If you're saying that concept of model should change to whatever Kendall Jenner is than, i'm sorry, we are all doomed.

 

[TheoG]

I don't kind Kendall to be honest I just hate how everything is going to be "handed to her" her connects with people in the industry, that's just my thought.

 

[ad31214]

Am I the only one who doesn't mind Kendall? It's better than having Kim walk or something along those lines. The proportions are right, the look is obviously pretty and not earth-shatterring but so are a lot of girls walking at the moment. The only negative is the nepotism.
