hi.

there is NO GWEN in JAMES COVELLO and BABY PHAT. Its both EUGENIA @ TRUMP. I was at both shows.

I think you should called her Gwen Lu. Though it is pronounced 'loo', Lu is normal and 'loo' means a toilet. ^^

Btw Hyejin is now on 10 shows!

Notice that the Chinese models are taking over from the Koreans...and the japanese models have vanished. Pei Bei has done the best; booking the best shows from a low starting point. She has the age and weight advantage over Mo,Du,Hye-Rim and Hye-Jin but the least beautiful face IMO.

Hmm..I think all the girls you marked in this post as Gwen is not her. The Katy Rodriguez one from previous is her tho.However, my heart belongs to Miss Emma Pei this season! The Nicole Miller & BCBG ones are so fab.

I think Hyoni will grow into her look s soon.

Hmmm... Stephanie Shiu looks kinda funny and a bit uncomfortable...although it's hard to tell.
Hyoni's that new Ford girl, right? I like her. She looks great.

Secret Agent said...

and as far as "anonymous's" comment about Chinese taking over the Koreans and the Japanese...why does that matter?

Du Juan is gorgeous, someone said her carrer is falling fast. Black and Asian models must work toeather if they expect work.

Secret Agent said...

Why is Du Juan's career falling?

Anonymous said...

Maybe because she's a boring model...your opinion may vary, of course. :)

I think Du is probably one of the prettiest models working (not just asian models), however, she really has like 2 looks and is boring as hell.

But, to answer your question, she does ok on the runway, but its rarely seen in editorials and ad campaigns outside of China. She certainly hasn't booked anything huge since that season where she did Vuitton, YSL, etc.

@ secret agent- I don't know. Thats a comment I read somewhere, but I love Du Juan.

HumanAdult said...

I think Du Juan and Mo Wandan are the only two asian girls that could be sensual enough and big enough to land a Victoria Secret campaign. So I dont think its over for Du Juan yet. Its abt time VS to have an Asian girl anyways.

Du Juan is beautiful and her face can take really strong make up and Ive yet to see a bad picture of her. But you know, fashion is trivial...sometimes designer just wants to try something new.

I used to not like HanJin coz I think she looks too rough and bitchy but now I love her for her unique look.

My bet this season is for Emma Pei (I think im repeating myself too much) to land as the coveted asian girl face for the upcoming campaigns. This is just NY so far. We havent seen how this bookings would lead to Milan, Paris & London.

Anne Watanabe is a model only because of her famous dad Ken Watanabe.
