Model of the Moment: Tara Gill

June 23rd, 2010


Model Tara Gill hails from the same country we reside-Canada. Born in Toronto, Tara Gill is part Native part Irish. Her features and bone structure are really strong, and  though she is known for her lips, I think her eyes are so intense. Not entirely new to the modelling game, Gill has been on the scene since 2007. In 2009 Gill was the face of McQueen’s online ad campaign, and walked in his last Spring show. She was recently quoted in Elle Canada saying the McQueen show was the most memorable moment in her career thus far. No doubt there will be many more memorable moments to come.

Model of the Moment: Jourdan Dunn

November 18th, 2009

Jourdan Dunn

Jourdan was spotted at the age of 16, where many 16 year old British girls can be found — at discount fashion superstore Primark. A few years later and she’s gone from Primark shopper to British Fashion Council’s “Model of the Year” in 2008. Jourdan was also on the cover of Italian Vogue in July 2008 with the entire issue celebrating Black models. Her most recent cover was Teen Vogue’s November issue. There have been countless runways from Louis to Prada, and campaigns for Calvin Klein, YSL, and Topshop to name a few. Her feline features are truly captivating, it’s no wonder this girl is a star.

Model of the Moment: Ranya Mordanova

New to the scene and already making a name for herself is Ranya Mordanova. She’s already been dubbed as a “rising star” and one of the “top ten newcomers” by several industry insiders. Since debuting in New York this February, Ranya’s managed to score editorials in French Vogue, W and V magazine as well as a lucrative ad campaign with Givenchy. And that’s just to name a few!

During London Fashion week in September, I worked with Ranya at Christopher Kane and Jonathan Saunders. Intense eyes, severe bowl cut, poreless pale skin, and the most adorable pout. A guarantee that she stands out in a crowd.
