Natalia "Naty" Chabanenko

[stiffkittens]

Considering how many bigger named/longer working models are having problems this season booking any work or have quit/taken a break, Naty's doing very well.

I really feel like she's a 'slow burner' model - she is getting solid work now, but will become huge once this 'inter-changeable/nameless face/only care about stick thin limbs' trend has passed (which i put down mostly to the recession). There is no one else around who looks like her, and she's so versatile. It seems like a given that she'll go far.

Missoni + Naty = OTP

You mean not plain & forgettable blonde russian? I agree, isnt it refreshing?!

you are so mean!

i agree with you stiffkittens, today only faces like anja or anna j can guarantee high sales to the brands,
and naty's beauty would definitely disctract a potential client from the clothes

I dont think so... It looks more like Elsa to me but I hope I'm wrong!

 

[stiffkittens]

Damn, the makeup's throwing me off...

i think sedirea is right, it's elsa, not naty

 

[stiffkittens]

Yep, it is elsa - i should have seen the blonde hair poking out...dumb dumb

 

[MyNameIs]
