Model Casting S/S 18

^ Lineisy will follow soon.

Balmain was so bad. A few fallen Eastern European models, a few fillers, a few VS models and Natalia. Nothing to like for me.

SHOOK @ BALMAIN with no Kendull or Gigabyte...I also thought Kaia would have opened the show! Why did Olivier drop the instagirl thingie all of sudden? Weird...
The casting was amazing anyway with gorgeous women like Karolina, Ale, Natasha and Magda paired with the new wave like Luna and some cool upbeat girl (Cara Taylor, Sarah Brannon).
LOL @ poor Luna who had to walk the runway THREE TIMES in that ultra tight skirt

KK at Balmain gave me life.

Where the **** is Birgit?

She's shooting

 

[thatsfierce]

KK, Magda, Natasha, Bianca Balti at Balmain!!!! that was really nice to see.

 

[YeohRocks]

Does anyone know Faretta's last name? lol

Ashley dropped Yasmin like a bad habit, lol...weird considering she used to have her in most if not all her shows.

Sometimes I just don't understand Ashley. She drops a girl like Yasmin, who's not only freakin' gorgeous but also has a spectacular walk, for bland tweens who barely know how to put one foot in front of the other. She really needs to figure her sh*t out.

Isabel was life!! what a cohesive cast.

Balmain came through with the best cast of the season. That opening with Natalia, Natasha, Anna, Kasia was amazing. Plus Magda, KK, Alla, etc. Well done.

Didn't Balmain and Marant use to have nearly identical casts back in the day? Hardly any overlap today.

Yeah and I use to like it ! Remember Isabel Marant show was right after Balmain and girls had to run for not be too late

I think the cast for IM was okay nothing really exciting she just like a type of models ( love to see Kaia opening , Rianne , Yasmin , Sasha and Birgit , would love to see girls like Elibeidy , Jourdan Soo Joo and the OG girls Anna S & co)

And of course Gigi had to close... ( I wonder if she didnt walk Balmain because she had no option to close it)

 

[Scotty]

^ But wasn't that because of Alt?

I think it was Dior that was really close to Marant. I remember one season there being huge drama about girls not being able to do both, or something.

Ah, how much I miss those days.

 

[Scotty]

^ Never knew about that. I thought the drama was over Fendi vs. Dolce.

Anyway, Sasha was at Marant and thank god. Her set of Paris shows were horrible. The worst collections of the season!

What a cast at Off-White!

And Hiandra opened a show that the Queen Naomi closed and where new Super Jourdan Dunn and this season's favourite face Kaia walked. What a star!

 

[FashionPower]

Kaia opening another show...death of instagirls and it's just her first season
She's gonna open Chanel for sure too since she was first face @ Fendi and we all know how predictable Karl is when it comes to models casting and openings LOL
(SS15: Cara, SS16: Edie Campbell, FW17: Cara Taylor)

Yes, it's Isabel Marant who used to be right after Dior. And Barbara Bui, right after Balmain!

 

[thatsfierce]

Yeah, pretty cool cast at Off-White, including Naomi closing the show. I think Aya walked too.

 

[Vitamine W]

I actually preferred IM over Balmain..besides Gigi of course. The goddess without bellybutton at Balmain was great, but generally Oliver is quite tacky, also with his castings.
And I'll say it again, pulling Yasmin from the runway is a serious crime. Or at least a felony.

 

[dsamg]

Wow, the Balmain cast was INCREDIBLE. Natasha, Anna S, Kasia, Magdalena, Sasha Luss, Alla. Unbelievable to see them all in the same show together again.

AMAZING. Far from being 'fallen Eastern European models' as stated above. These are legends and true Balmain girls. I wish Freja had been there.

 

[dsamg]

Btw what is the deal with Maartje? Is she really just not booking at all now?
