Model Casting S/S 2026

[Armani]

I am getting very, very sleepy and have to tap out for the night. Got to look 17 of Diotima, with the Greta Constantine lookbook, the Nomia lookbook, Tory Burch (if the show hasn’t been covered in full yet), the Adeam lookbook, Luar, and all backstage + details pictures to go… if anyone has any free time in the wee hours of the morning (or anytime in your timezone), please have at it <3 I’ll be up and open to filling any gaps necessary during the day, but will be offline and online during my usual times.

Vic Cayo has been on my mind since Alexander Wang. I don’t even think there’s a thread for her here.

 

[Fiercification]

Tory Burch had the best cast so far IMO. Nice to see Ashley delivering a high quality, dependable cast without the need to throw someone ~edgy~ in there.

I thought that was the first S/S show for Marylore Heck (Belgian LV opener from last season), but then I see she's been in a few other shows already and I just wasn't paying attention .

I'm keeping my eyes on Luna Yohannan after NY. I didn't pay attention to the last Céline show but I see she was an exclusive and now seems to have gained the approval of both Ashley and PG this past week. Hopefully that bodes well for her game in Europe.

I also think Tory Burch had the best cast — truly impeccable. COS would be my second pick.
One girl I’d definitely consider is Claudia Campana, someone I’d never really paid attention to before, but who might actually turn out to be a strong lead.
And finally, I can’t help but notice how Angelina Kendall only ever books Del Moro shows — except for COS (why COS, of all brands?) — and not even a single Brokaw show.
I’m really looking forward to seeing what the casting directors will come up with in Europe.

Angelina usually only does PG shows until Paris where she walks for other casting directors.

Luna Yohannan is amazing 🤩 if only she had an agency in Milano!! My favorite new face of the season so far!

I don’t understand how Claudia doesn’t do that great outside of NYC. Especially in Milano. I thought Italians loved and supported other Italians, so that has always been a disappointment. But she had an amazing NYC this season!

What I am really curious about is if Anok and Vittoria will walk shows in Europe. I am assuming Anok will as she seems to always do the SS Seasons and her show list is matching up to her last NYC. Vittoria, who knows, but I hope so! Especially with all those campaigns.

Lastly closing out NYC I still can’t get over Selenac Claire, Ava and Chloe skipping. They’re all Americans or live in America! Chloe was literally in the US, but left for a Japanese vacation. But with Claire and Ava are so new so skipping is weird 😐 I hope they aren’t pulling an Ava Christian / Ryleabeth / Addison Soens. Especially Claire Marie! Nervously anticipating if they show in Europe.

The only Italian who could really help her is Piergiorgio Del Moro, also because, honestly, there aren’t many Italians in the fashion world with significant decision-making power over models, whether as designers or casting directors. Models like Valeria Buldini — who has a team very similar to Vittoria’s — are proof of this. Valeria even seems to have become one of Carine Roitfeld’s girls. I’m almost sure Anok will walk in Europe; Mona and Vittoria are more doubtful, but let’s hope for the best!

 

[Simera]

Exactly. But PG casts so many shows in Milano he could have booked her for something.
I thought Valeria was going to have a moment a few years back, but sadly nothing major really ever came of it.

 

[Sasori Saand]

I'll be honest: Claudia Campana is the best italian model i've seen in recent years.

Incredible face.
Elegant and classy like few others.

She can adapt to both high fashion and urban style.
I really hope for her success.

Her thread is quite empty, though. Would love to see some refurbishing over there ahaha

I was today years old when I found out Betsy Gaghan is actually a nepo baby. She's got what it takes to be a top model and doesn't waste her privilege still.

@Simera I think Vittoria is in Madrid!

To be honest, I don't know exactly. There was a Carolina Herrera party, but some say it was in New York, others Madrid... I don't know. Paris Match posted a TikTok.
EDIT:
I confirm, it was in Madrid.

Prayer circle she walks the show!! Then carries that momentum over to Milano where she opens and closes everything hahaha

 

[prylvi]

I hope Thea Almqvist will do some shows.. she's one of favorite new faces

Blanca Padilla was also wonderful! Love her

The lack of support for Blanca Padilla in this industry is CRIMINAL, she's so lovely.
