Valerija Kelava

[mariemaud]

Ahh..

why

wow

well, this aside , I still hope the best for her, she's so exceptionnal...

 

[Teja]

Valerija is now with Ford Models NY!

WTF?!

 

[cologne_rocks]

Such a pity, how can one leave Next unless there were drastic issues? Hoping the best for her, of course.

 

[teacakes]

To be honest, I like this change. She seemed like such a Rowland girl from the start, though I don't know if Ford will be able to manage her like she was at Next. The agency switch on top of her campaign frenzy will either keep her on top or leave her in the dust, but she seems like the type of girl who can hang on for awhile.

 

[KatJenahMckey]

Wow.

Can someone explain to me what is so tragic about joining Ford?

 

[nijuyanah]

^ Well, I can only speak for myself and I really didn't mean my previous comment in a bad way regarding her new represantation by Ford, but it was simply a bit out of the blue IMO - especially considering the fact that Next has got her plenty of great (a-class to be precise) jobs and I always found their way of managing Valerija very well-elaborated and conceived. So, I don't really see a reason why she would switch. But as I have no insight in all of this: I'm very surprised but also very eager to see how she'll do with Ford

Nothing as far as I'm concerned... Paul Rowland (formerly of Supreme) is at the helm...

There is basically nothing tragic or bad in joining Ford per se. It's a good agency or an exciting project at least. What shocked most people is the fact she left Next who worked very (let's even say extremely) well for her. But as I said in the "Models switching agencies" thread, we never know all the reasons, all the connections and we have to trust the girl's own decisions as well.

 

[hysteria]

To be honest, that's shocking me a bit..After such a great success with Next this step seems to be quite odd, but I hope that everything will be as good as so far.

 

[WilhelmF]

Thanks guys! Now that I've read your comments, I'm getting a little worried about it.

I really hope this is a wise decision. I'm pretty sure everyone here agrees that she is the golden girl from the ad campaign season and if she can't keep up with the good work she has gotten so far due to this radical change, it will hurt me as hell

meenalmistry Valerija Kelava might just be my new favorite model. Her answer to the question "Modeling Idol?" was "Patsy Stone."

I'm looking foward to see her working with a new agency, I'm sure she'll do as good as she is doing now, and perhaps even better.
