The coolest Canadian newcomer out there at the minute. Can see her producing huge editorial wonders!

News Update: Kirsi

Kirsi Pyrhonen at DNA

Racking up both S/S11 advertisement points for Marc Jacobs a cover of i-D Magazine last month, you cannot halt the continual march of Kirsi's instant stardom. Also check out her new story in Vogue UK March 2011 by Tim Walker. New Polaroid from New York.

Photographer Interview: Seth Sabal

I can't remember when I last interviewed a photographer, or generally industry creatives other than models. The whole 'Casting Director interview', 'Agency Interview' and suddendly 'Photographer Interview' thing slowed rapidly down on Digital Diamonds because it became routine and what seemed so special and thrilling in the beginning, lost its sweetness after months and months of the same procedure.
Well, some weeks ago a friend send me a link to an entry on Seth Sabal's blog. Stunning, natural close-up shot by him of stunning, sought after girls. Some minutes later, I found myself browsing the whole site. I am an enthusiast of his style. A first sight of his work, Seth epitomizes powerful minimalism paying close, kind of intimate attention to the appearance of the model. I kind of like that cause most rather new photographers take this oh-so unique independent photography route and they all end up not differing from each other in essential.
Long story made short, I couldn't help but contacting him for an interview and was very pleased to receive his answers as I really learned something new - So don't leave out to read the piece below.

Obsessed with: Eva

Represented by Bloom Management 

It is widely agreed that Bloom Management has become one of Holland's most sought after addresses for intriguing newfaces. Eva seems a worthy addition to the selective roster of Bloom Management.
Review below.

(Heartbreakingly) obsessed with: Kelly

178cm | Represented by Marilyn Agency in New York

My heart skipped a beat when I stumbled over Kelly Mittendorf's polaroids by Marilyn New York.
Shockingly beautiful, it's unreal how much sophistication she has got at this young age.
Intense eyes and sculptural facial propotions give this face its indisputably regal yet archaic charm.
Unique, smart beauty - We're in love!

Madly in love with: Christine

Motheragency: Modelwerk (Hamburg) | Contact: katharina@modelwerk.de

Somehow Modelwerk keeps producing the most incredible models of all, and Christine is no exception.

Information on Christine is rare at the moment as she has only been launched on the German market a few weeks ago but given two or three great testing results and this new set of digitals, we predict that Christine's name is set to ring out everywhere in not too distant future.  

Lean 5'10 silhouette, well-toned physique, strongly protruding cheekbones and womanly charisma - What's not to love about Christine?

Obsessed with: Sven

Represented by PMA Models in Hamburg (Contact: alexa@promod.org)

We just reveived this polaroid preview and thought the countenance of the newface illustrated on it was promising enough for a little entry: 
Sven is the name of the seventeen-year-old PMA represented. 
Being a fairly successful judo fighter, you better be on the lookout for more on this clean, handsome beauty just as we are and check out his portfolio here. Hats off to PMA Models for discovering him!

Obsessed with: Danya

173cm  | Represented by BM Model Management (Contact: info@bmmm.nl)

Scouted by BM Model Management in Rotterdam, Dutch Delight Danya Weevers measures 173cm on the height scale - This little lack of height, she absolutely makes up for with harmonious facial features and great propotions. Besides that, Danya already brings along an effortless sensuality to her early print work which may be an indication for a future editorial success.
So watch out for Danya's progress and don't miss seeing new testing results of this sixteen years old stunner below.

News Update on: Eva

Represented by Modelwerk in Hamburg (katharina@modelwerk.de)

We're going to interrupt this silence right now with a short and precise polaroid entry on Eva Staudinger from Hamburg's Modelwerk. Pretty busy with school and therefore not been off to Fashion Shows in any town other than Berlin this time, Eva just came over our place for a little polaroid session.

Doesn't Nordic strenght transcend so magically into polaroid? We think so. Especially in association with a perfectly thin 6'0 silhouette, you see.

F/W11 Paris Favorite: Alyona

Represented by WM Model Management in Paris

Kazakhstani beauty Alyona Subbotina of WM Model Management in Paris was a pretty unexpected choice for the opening slot of Givenchy yesterday: Somewhat blonder than the others but perfectly transcending into the enigmatic mood of the show just as darkly beautiful Lea Tisci none the less, Alyona knew how to hold her own among this stellar show line up - Check out her new polaroids and prepare for the editorial storm of this stunner!

News Update on: Nastya

 Motheragency: Image Discovery in Ukraine | Also with Premier Model Management in London 
Ph. Squiz Hamilton

We have featured this 'Image Discovery' with a set of mighty polaroids from Premier in London a few weeks ago and we would like to touch briefly on the rather sensual side of nifty Nastya today.

Seeing her brand new testing results by Squiz Hamilton makes us really think how perfectly one can impersonate the term "cross-over beauty". Nastya Smerechevskaya may be the epitome of a versatile model with both shockingly beautiful facial features and soft expressions. We see her doing amazing things in the future!

F/W11 Paris Favorite: Agnes

While many of our favorites faces are already entering the home stretch in Paris after weeks and weeks of 24/7 mad rush, it has just begun for this fresh Swede.
Agnes is her name, starting her first season in Paris via Oui Management.
Her beauty? Rather silent and deep than obvious but not less iconic in any way.
Pale skin that almost looked like porcelain at Rick Owens' all-star show.
Intense eyes evoking Caroline Winberg vibes on the Rue du Mail stage.
Which such a perfect start into the Fall Winter season, we can't wait until astounding Agnes starts to gather print momentum. Keep it coming, Agnes!

News Update on: Arizona

Arizona Muse (Next Models) stars for Vogue Italia in "So Pure, So Modern" by Craig McDean

Came across this piece tonight, can't resist to share it with you. 37 seconds of visual shocks and speedy recovery with Arizona Muse who clearly lives up her surname.
She may be a bit hyped with like ten magazine appereances emerging every month but her phyisical-presence fulfils this omni-presence. I think her appeal or rather aura is difficult to explain, it can't be perceived, it can only be felt. 
So who if not Arizona?

News Update on: Dasha & Lize

Dasha  (178cm) |  Please contact motheragent Michael (Image Discovery) for more information on Dasha & Lize V.

An Image Update on Image Discovery.
Check out brand new Polaroids of Dasha & Lize from Ukrainian boutique agency Image Discovery.

F/W11 Milan Favorite: Mackenzie

At Jil Sander | Motheragency: Stars Model Management  (Contact: kkotik@starsmodelmgmt.com)

Impeccable start for a promising career: Haute Couture debut at Valentino. New York debut at Calvin Klein. Milan debut at Jil Sander. Paris debut at Dries van Noten - One can tell that Mackenzie Drazan's Fashion Week debuts are all about exclusivity and prestige.
No overstrain but clever strategic moves of her motheragency Stars Model Mgmt and Elite Europe have catapulted the demand on this diamond in big heights.
Absolutely not equipped with a girl-next-door look, Mackenzie brings intelligent beauty and grace to the runways combined with a face that simply stands out through its perfect symmetry.

We're quite in the mood for some sensations right now and receiving new snapshots of our favorite seeDS.management newcomers both female and male was seedsational enough to give it a little article.

F/W11 Obsessions: Colinne

178cm |  Represented by Silent Models in Paris & New York

Subtle features and the smoothest complexion ever give Colinne at Silent her classical and understatedly elegant aura. We wonder how Paris will treat this French minimalist!
