Han hye jin of course! She walked more New York shows than anyone (21 and counting), but she needs more editorials

 

[Faith Akiyama]

[youarearockstar]

I guessed and I believe that Naiad was the one with the factual information on that one

I guessed and I believe that Naiad was the one with the factual information on that one

I guessed too. But it was only guessing from me as well.

So exclusives at Calvin Klein was Johanna Jonsson, Irina Kulikova, Viviane Orth and some girl named Edythe(?).

 

[Faith Akiyama]

^Yes, Edythe! I don't see a thread for her, however...

 

[youarearockstar]

Well that explains were Irina K has been all this time. I cannot believe I didn't put two and two together sooner like we did with Johanna.

Li-Ya, sorry I didn't give yah credit as well, nothing personal, just a bad memory!

 

[Li Ya Fan]

^ I promise, I didn't get offended.

I think many people guessed, because after some days I think only options were Johanna wouldn't do NY at all, or she had an exclusive. And she definitely fits Calvin Klein aesthetic.

Faith, are you keeping lists for all models? It must be much work to update!

 

[Faith Akiyama]

^About 95% of them!

And yes...pretty arduous task it is -- and we're not even in Europe yet!

 

[Li Ya Fan]

So many lists... ...you will be all exausted when show season is over.

 

[Faith Akiyama]

I know But it'll all be worth it

And I love making them because it helps me get more familiar with the new faces!

 

[julesrules815]

Edythe is brand new at Elite. she didnt even have a showcard. I saw her portfolio on Elite's website and honestly, I don't see anything special about her

 

[youarearockstar]

The only reason she stood out for me was that she was the only model at CK that I couldn't ID. The exclusive can only do so much for the career, they have to be able to carry over the success of course.

The lists...oh yes. Well compared to the numerous lists of paper I have everywhere when I'm discovering new faces and remembering features and looks, the list on here are much simpler. Besides, after all of our work is done, I'm pretty sure we're going to have quite a few 8, 9, and perfect 10 scores

 

[style_expert]

I've noticed Kasia Strauss too...in a positive way.

I'm still not sure about Han. Of course she did a lot of shows NOW, but I guess we'll have to wait until Milan and Paris.

 

[youarearockstar]

Don't get me wrong, I would love to see Han on that list as much, if not more, than most people. I'm just concerned that she'll be overlooked because its not her first season. They did that to Daiane Conterato last year. I just can't imagine personally, that if she didn't make it last year, that they would add her this year.

From Style.com

It's too early to tell which models will emerge as the top faces from the Fall collections, but a few have already made an impact. Suvi Koponen, who skipped New York last season to make her debut as the Prada opener, has been everywhere this week. Another new catwalk staple (and the face of Burberry's Spring/Summer 2007 campaign) is Britain's Georgia Frost. And if the Marc Jacobs show is any indication (it is), redheaded opener Olga Sherer has big things ahead. We're also keeping our eyes on Texan Ali Michael (winner of the Kim Dawson Model Search that launched the careers of Mimi Roche and Erin Wasson), Belarusian Veronika Antsipava, and the Brazilian duo, Caroline Demarqui and Carolina Pantoliano. Stay tuned for Milan.

I love both Carols

Carolina's doing pretty well for a new girl - she didn't even have a showcard this season.
