Russia's Next Top Model

[Juliax]

Much better now. In the bicycles pictures Katya looks like Shannan Click

 

[Ruspat]

Oh, i forgot to update - so last week they did the nude shoot - in my opinion, the girls look good but the male models really detract. They also had makeovers - most of the girls didn't really have much of a change besides Alisa (who received a red bob) and Katya (darker, richer brown).

The shoot last week was incredibly jank - i'm not even going to post it,
Though they did meet Vlada Roslyakova - who taught them catwalk.
They also met with Women Management -
They said they would sign Katya instantly.
Alena, Daria and Yulia were also shown interest.
Anna S. was too short - but considered.

I like the show this season, they definitely improved a lot and made it on a different level, plus the girls are beautiful and look like real models. My personal favourites are Yulia and Daria, too bad the latter was eliminated. Katya definitely has the potential, no wonder she was picked by Women, well I like all 4 girls as models that were chosen by the agency on in a previous serie
Veronica, Anna K and Valentina are too commercial, doubt they will do modelling for a long time and definitely not in high fashion

Nice to see girls are getting representation at least in Russia
Ulyana has a good look, I can see her working for a brand like Jil Sander for instance

 

[Fiammifero]

Isn't Alisa the little sister of model Katya Elizarova?

 

[dreamgirl]

Anna Sokolova has been signed with Avant models Russia for several years already, but worked just for Moscow market

 

[Ruspat]

Alisa is the little sister of Katya Elizarova.

Anna S. has been signed for a while, but was taken off then put on again - and she is beginning to get more high-profile work.
She recently had a spread in Glamour Russia.

Also here is some pics of Lilya,
She came 3rd in season 3 - which aired during March-May this year - personally i felt she was really good - but sabotaged and they kept picking bad photos of her so it looked like she was the one who was dragged all the way to the finale.

She is signed with Stage Models in Tokyo
GRmodels in Moscow &
She is off to Milan this or next month - where Women Management shown interest on her during the show.

HEIGHT : 176
BUST : 82

She has done some work in Tokyo for a few months after she finished the show - and i'll post it later.

[Sweet rus]

The last serie was pretty boring, I don't get why Yulia's picture won, imo it's quite unfortunate, Anastasia's and Anna K's shots are awful, the latter pic is so vulgar

And can't believe what a b*tch another Anna is, she didn't like the fact she is not even paid for a sponsor shoot, can you believe it?

 

[Deleted member 1957]

some of the girls look really good. The shoot with the nude male models is very awkward though most of the male models look more like assasins than models and look very uncomfortable

[Zann]

Vlada Roslyakova will appear in the show.
http://u-topmodel.ru/video/7166/

i really need to get into Russia's next top model. based off of the photos that have been posted, this is a pretty good competition.

Love the video of Vlada just power walking infront of those wannabe's!

 

[Sweet rus]

They are going over the top with all the advertising, it's annoying

This time Anna K was eliminated, I don't think her picture was the worst though

It's funny to read on the official website how people complain that everything is known in advance and some of the girls were paid for, how Katya and Yulia can still be around (yeah, how the strongers competitors can still be around ) when Veronika and Anna Kare the best, yeah, they are the most conventional and the least modelisque in my opinion

 

[Ruspat]

Yeah ^ This week the girls had another sponsor shoot - for Blend-a-med.
It was a horrific shoot.

From rtvgames:
Before that they had some challenge posing out in Paris in bikinis - Irina mentioned there would be an elimination for the girl who took the worst photos - an unfortunately - a frontrunner was cut: Anna S. - Apparently she had some disease or something that made it hard for her to pose in her bikini in the cold - so it affected her - but when she was eliminated - she was crying a lot and it was really sad - even going through her portfolio it was definitely one of the strongest. The top 3 was Alena, Anna K. and Anastasia - and their photos will be sent to Irina's agency in Spain.

After that challenge - Anastasia was fed up with everything behind the scenes and she was about to leave - but everyone convinced her to stay (there is some backstory to this but i don't know about it yet - but it had to do with things behind the scenes)

The shoot was awful as you can see above.

Alena - challenge winner

Bottom 2: Anna K and Anastasia (both challenge-winners)
Eliminated: Anna K

Lilya Kotsur - Vogue Japan, November 2012

rtvgames - credit to Hollow

some rtvgames people seem to like Veronica, Anna K and Valentina - thankfully the majority like Anna S. and Katya

I personally can't stand Veronica, Anna K and Valya aside from personality.
Especially Valentina who is sooo one-note with her smiling shots.

 

[Sweet rus]

Exactly, but she is pretty and charming and all, and people still can't understand a model is not just a pretty face. I don't like Anna S, heR personality just kills everything for me plus she is on a shorter side. i am happy Lilya is doing well so far, she is the only girl from the first 3 seasons who is a real model material. Btw where do you find all the info on the contestants, on rtvgames?
I realised why I like Yulia so much, she said she was Kalmyk, and when she mentioned it, I finally saw that it really shows in the eyes and I like this exotic mix

 

[Ruspat]

I know Anna S. is whiny - but she is soo photogenic.

Lilya was definitely huge model material - some RTVG users talk to her and she is going to Milan - and signing with Women! We should create a thread for her once she is signed in Milano!

Rtvgames has threads for each contestants - which some of the people speak to them and post info - so that's how i know.

And i really never knew Yulia was Kalmyk, she looks really exotic though.
Anna S. is also not completely Russian right?

 

[Sweet rus]

I don't know, she is not versatile at all, she can take good shots but I get bored easily as they all look the same

I see. It's interesting to know how girls' careers evolve. Wow, that's huge, I knew she would find a good agency and could work well. And meanwhile I keep on checking women's site to find out who they decide to sign with but I guess they'll wait till the show is over. I heard the winner was mentioned on forums but ot was under spoiler and I didn't want to know before the show ends.

She mentioned it during the last shoot, that her eyes will look too small if she smiles too much.
Hmm I don't really know. One designer said she looked Latin and not Russian at all but I haven't heard about her heritage from Anna herself
