Models of the Runway

Here’s a look at the ladies who walk the walk…the ones that don the amazing designs that will set trends for seasons to come. The faces on the runway and in our magazines today are not the same as in the 90’s. Supermodel has been replaced with Top Models. The look of today is editorial, intriguing and really, she’s just the sometimes-odd looking tall girl who sat behind you in history class.

oh la la!

A few seasons ago I snapped a pic of a total cutie and posted it along with the rest of my Fashion Week pictures on Facebook. I was stunned to get comments and find out that he was Taylor Fuchs, from lil’ ol’ Saskatchewan…White City, in fact…about 2 hours from where I grew up. If you’re from a small town…you understand that it is not often that someone from your area makes it into the international modelling world-and its pretty exciting when someone does. I’ve kept my eye out for Taylor ever since….and this year I caught him coming out of the Micheal Kors Fashion Show. Besides being totally smokin’ he was charming, humble and very sweet. Go Saskatchewan!

Here are a few others that make the heart pound a little harder;)

Sean O’Pry. I think many will agree that he is one of the top male models in the industry right now. If he isn’t opening Perry Ellis at NY Fashion Week than he is gracing the massive posters at your local H&M, as well as doing campaigns for Dolce & Gabbana, Marc Jacobs,Calvin Klein…the list goes on. Besides all of this…he is one of my favorites. Year after year he is sweet, talkative and a total gentleman, in fact…he really needs to meet my sister! 😉 Swoon!

Another Canadian! Marcel Castenmiller also walked in the Michael Kors Show. Known for his androgynous look he’s been featured in Kenzo, Theory and Gucci eyewear…just to name a few. Nice work Edmonton!

The German born Lenz Von Johnston…He is usually the most goofy and interactive of the bunch…this year he was pretty quiet….quiet perhaps, but I love his look.

Max Rogers…watch for him in the Tommy Hilfiger Tailgating ad campaign

Models goofing off outside of the Marc Jacobs Show.

…and by the way?! Is this not the funnest blog I’ve done so far or what?! Which one is YOUR favorite..?

MBFW Celeb Sightings September 16, 2010

Last day….sob…I have no words. Tres sad.

In previous years, the last day of fashion week is pretty slow. So…we scooted out halfway through the day to take in a Jimmy Fallon taping-which is always a great time! The other highlight of the day was the Gwen Stefani show…which brought out a ton of paparazzi and made us fight for our shots. Elbows in the side, camera bags in the face, feet stepped on…oh, the glamour of fashion week!

The very handsome Gavin Rossdale, who took his time to take LOADS of photos with his fans.

Debbie Harry. I love the first picture…it portrays a bit of the chaos that was at the back door; Dark..rainy..lots of security..huge umbrellas..loads of people..security…cameras everywhere.

And finally…and I mean FINALLY…out came the lady of the evening Gwen Stefani.

MBFW Celeb Sightings September 14, 2010

Tuesday September 14, was another full day for us down at Lincoln Center. We had met up with the ‘fashion week family’ and now had a lay of the land. Stage, Studio and Theatre. We had more ground to cover than at Bryant Park! Mid afternoon we took the subway across town to the Armory to catch the Marc by Marc Jacobs show. Marc Jacobs isn’t known for inviting celebs but all the hottest runway models walk in his shows. Plus we knew we would get to meet the man himself. By the end of the day Jenn’s flash decided it was tired out and started to malfunction. This didn’t stop her from getting Sarah Jessica Parker as she bolted into Narciso Rodriguez!

We caught these ladies leaving the Badgley Mischka show…
