oooh I didn't know this thread existed! I have so many thoughts to share!
1st - Stella Hanan - Girl what are you doing SKIPPING this season? I see she was in NYC, but I thought after last season she would be making bank at the couture shows. So I was very disappointed by that.
2nd - I think Vittoria doesn't seem to walk much during the FW seasons as much as she does in the SS which is odd. But I wasn't expecting her to show anywhere during the couture / menswear shows.
3rd - THE NEW GIRLS FROM LAST SEASON!
I was excited by some new girls last season. Sandra Murray I think will be the next big PG girl. He needs someone other than just Angelina haha. Luiza kind of bores me after last season. And I thought Hejia was a PG girl, but again, but she seems to walk anything and doesn't do it for me like she used to.
Ryleabeth was the Ashley girl I thought would dominate, even though she has a *unique* look, but she skipped menswear / couture again so I don't expect much from here.
Esther Santos was another stand out, but I think she will become b list walker like Agel and Yilan. Maybe show up at some big shows, but will walk just about anything. That could make her last a while, but idk about star power.
Bibi Breslin was such a stand out last season... until Paris! So I am not expecting a huge season for her.
Other than Sandra, the girls I am really looking forward to seeing are... Mathilda Gvarliani, Song Ah Woo, Mia Armstrong, Betsy Gaghan, Coumba Mballo, Viktoria Wirs, Camille Desjardins.
I expect top walkers to be Lulu, Sara C., Apolline and QUEEN AWAR
Penelope usually does great, but I just do not like her...
Sascha need more bookings too, she never seems to do as good in Europe as in NYC, but her showings at couture week and menswear were nice.
