Favourite Fashion Models


High Fashion models. Shallow, I know. Love them superficial~Hah

I cannot really recall how exactly I come across fashion and model.. I think it was when my art teacher assigned us to collect magazines and cut some of the pages to make into I do not remember what now, back when I was in high school. Ahh, life was great and more peaceful back then...

Back to our little story, since the idea was to cut the colourful pages of the magazines, my mother suggested buying used magazines and offered to buy as many as possible. I remember grabbing random magazines at the book stall that night. But gone has the days of collecting magazines..

I casually flipped the pages but an image of Karolina Kurkova fiercely stomping the runway caught my attention. And the rest is obsession interest. Fashion and models come hand in hand, and what do you know, I am very much invested in style even before I know fashion (though what really gave me a first glance into fashion is Adriana Lima and Megan Ewing's Guess campaign at local mall. I remember being intrigued and impressed by the advertisement at the same time. I was sweet 13, dumb and naive, a good excuse thereeee)

So here are my favourite models! Tons of them actually. But on top are always always these girls:



1 Karolina Kurkova
Another fav shot in honour of genius Galliano. Good times at Dior


2 Adriana Lima



3 Daria Werbowy


4 Isabeli Fontana


5 Bianca Balti




For the new faces (runway debut roughly after 2005):


1 Constance Jablonski



2 Bette Franke


3 Marine Deleeuw


4 Sun Fei Fei



5 Aymeline Valade



There is a very obvious trend here, no? All my favourite models share few noticeable traits. They all have strong jaw and light eyes (with the exception of Sun Fei Fei). Not to mention most of them have darker hair and thicker lips. Everyone's cheekbones' game is strong too. It's everything I ever wanted for myself; tall, skinny, light eyes, strong jaw, thick lips.


I will have posts about them separately and talk about their career, fashion sense and whatever we can talk about; about models. Would also love to do a(n) (amateur) profiling on their career choices, trajectories and their current status in the industry.


That is all for now. Stay tune. Chiao~
