So there was a random VMan model search a few months back, and it all looked chic and legit. Even our neighborhood male model, Donovan B., was in it, and was doing quite well if I might add (#20), well some months later he dropped to #50, and randoms started to get on it, like girls for an all male model search, and ultimately the finalists were one of the last entries (#949, #950, #951). Anywho, I will give you the winner and the finalists who got a photoshoot with Hedi Slimane, designer turned photographer, a contract with FORD, and a cover of VMan Fall/Winter 2008. I personally don't believe in this person, because he looks too much like a Ryan Taylor/Cole Mohr/Terron Wood hybrid. But it is what it is. And the other controversy is his application photo was shot @ FORD, clearly, we all know that wall who have been to the FORD NY Flagship Agency.
Hopefully, VAMODEL Search for V Magazine runs a bit more smoothly. But so far, not so good. I mean look at the girls so far, not chic, not flattering, and where is you neck number 1???
Ladies and Gentlemen! If you don't know: For the July 2008 Issue of Vogue Italia, there will be featuring only NON-WHITE MODELS! That means Channel dust off the pumps; Alek use extra body gloss, and Iman just be Iman, because you guys are taking over the magazine! Thanks to our friend in our head, Steven Miesel, he heard an upcoming top model's rant of their are more than white in London! (Thanks Jourdan Dunn). So far there have been a few confirms, and so far it looks like Jourdan Dunn is going to grace the cover! However, I find it a bit hypocritical when you go years rarely putting black models on covers and editorials, but you are going to use 30 black models in one issue, and the next issue go back to ZERO. Where is the diversity in that, Franca Sozzani?
