Model Casting S/S 11

[Faith Akiyama]

^I think Natasha's absence from Versace shocked me the most!

 

[Salvatore]

Suvi ... ?
Ok.

 

[Zann]

^ If you look in Suvi's thread, there is a casting board picture and it has Yulia, Natasha, Liu Wen, Jourdan Dunn, Aline, Frida G, Shu P

but they didn't walk

 

[offtodreamland]

I like Lindsey Wixon, but that girls' walk was horrible for Versace. Sometimes the quirky/awkward look works for some shows, but not Versace.

Honestly, where are the Asian girls in Milan? Plenty in town and five of them huge names, but absolute no-shows at Gucci, Fendi, Prada, Moschino, and now Versace...I know Liu Wen is doing something else today, but the overall track record is honestly ridiculous, especially after their strong showings in NY.

Very disappointing... I hope Miuccia brings in an all-Asian cast next season to make a mark. Actually while she was at it with the dark-haired girls, she easily could have included a few stunning Asians. I really wonder why Italians generally feel Asian girls don't fit in their aesthetic. Castings as a whole need to reflect a more comprehensive worldview.

It's funny, I could have used all those models casted at Gianfranco Ferre show for Versace

Totally! If someone only show me the list with the models names, I would think Ferres cast would be Versaces

 

[Salvatore]

It seems that maybe Ferrè had the first pick over Versace. Interesting.

This is what I was talking about:

[nightclubbing]

That wasn't the official casting board, if you go back a few pages you'll see that.

Hmm, I can agree that it may seem like that at first glance, but I doubt it.

The fact that Daphne (the hottest thing since sliced bread), Freja, Monica Jagaciak, Joan Smalls, Abbey and Karmen, all girls who usually walk every major show, were at Versace, points clearly at Versace having first picks in my opinion.

But I agree that the Versace cast was very atypical.

 

[Fernini]

And no Anna Selezneva @ Versace was surprising for me.

 

[Zann]

yeah i figured. I'm surprised that Liu Wen and Shu were considered. I really wanted them to be in it

Yes, Where Sun Feifi. Liu Wen, Shu Pei? So sad

just hear that joe mckenna was the stylist. maybe that is the answer

What do you mean by that, perhaps you should answer here.

 

[fashunviktim]

[cologne_rocks]

HMM.. Karlie, Toni, Sasha.. I don't know but it seems like just speculation who had the first pick, they could be all at Versace and so does Nimue who also did couple Versace seasons. Both have some big names. Versace: Freja, Monica, Abbey, Karmen and GF with and Karlie, Sasha, Toni..

Also I think that Daphne is not doing all the castings (from what I understand), so that could tell nothing about who picked first.

About the Asian: it's a shame no one was included. But still Natasha no Versace

joe mckenna was indeed styling versace this season...last season was brana wolf
