Anon #1, I posted the entire article on Fashion Intellect.

Lynette, Gwen Lu's first season (Fall 2008) at New York Fashion Week bombed. She booked only 2 or 3 shows so her agency moved her into catalog work. She is slowly building her portfolio with editorials in French Biba, Taiwan Vogue and various other magazines.

She's is currently on Paris' City Models show package for this season (Fall 2009). Hopefully, she will book some work during Paris Fashion Week.

I think Gwen made muchos money from catalogue work. It really is where the money is. Editorial is image building but doesnt pay much I think, unless you're like ..Giselle.

Isnt that Fatima from ANTM?
