Tayane Leao (Brazil): Maxi dress

From winning the Ford Supermodel of the World 2009 contest at just age 14 to the FW11 Givenchy runway, Tayane proves she can rock more than just her On Duty jobs with her maxi dress coupled with some tough soled, yet heeled boots.

Also has anyone else seen the preview for Karl Lagerfeld's film The Tale of a Fairy on You Tube? The film which features Freja, Kristen McMenamy, and Baptiste Giabiconi will be featured alongside the Chanel's Cruise Collection but will be viewable in it's entirety tomorrow on Chanel.com

Daiane Conterato (Brazil)

If only we could all rock shiny metallic pants like @Daiane (@Ford, NY) when out and about.

Valerija Kelava Off Duty (Ford, NY)





Valerija! Shot by Craig McDean for Vogue Italia and Daniel Jackson for Vogue China, Jil Sander and Diesel gigs for advertising-- she's everywhere right now.

And we are right on the eve of fashion month, which means 16 hour work days, endless nights of uploading photos to FTP servers for clients, and lots of travel. You'll be able to find my photos on NYMAG.com (1.5 million unique visitors per day) and Net-A-Porter.com among other sites this season.

Updates from around the world coming soon!

Interesting how when I was waiting for my flight from Milan to Paris, Alana was on the same flight. For as good as she usually looks, I couldn't believe my eyes when I only saw her get 1 suitcase at baggage check. How does she stuff all those great looks into 1 suitcase. Who knows, maybe my memory serves me wrong :)

Karmen Pedaru (FORD, NY): what's different about her style here?



bag -- Michael Kors Hamilton Bag

There is one major key difference from how this outfit differs to all her others from the last 2 years. Can you spot the difference?

Ming Xi Off Duty (FORD NY): the Givenchy Phenomena


transparency: black under white

So it's Friday night and I'm working on Crosby street doing a gig for Conde Nast France (making a living through street photography means making my monthly mortgage payment sometimes at the expense of weekend partying) when to my surprise, Ming walks by with a friend.

For those of you that don't know, Ming has walked 3 consecutive Givenchy shows: her debut runway show at the January Couture shows, the March Paris RTW show, and the July Couture show. On top of that, she appears in the Givenchy campaign as well. For a girl who hasn't even finished a complete year of runway shows yet , this is amazing.

I can't wait to see how her personal style evolves over time.

Lina Söderström Off Duty (MIKAs, Stockholm)


In Gamla Stan, Stockholm's "Old Town": pants by H & M

Accessories Close Up: she made the bracelet herself


Wedges are from Top Shop: note the Swedish flag in the background

The one thing I like about Lina besides that she is also represented by FORD models New York, besides her creative vision (her bracelet and her sweater are self-made), is that she writes her blog from Sweden in English.
