Of all the
conventional entities that get their share of recognition and dues paid back in
fashion, the models have forever and a day been the forerunners. Whether the
retro dandies (twiggy), the original supermodels (Naomi and Cindy) from the
nineties and It girls (the always tenacious Kate Moss), these bold and
flamboyant starlets of fashion are indelible components of fashion now, then
and to come. After the nineties the supermodel phenomenon gradually dialed down
with relatively less ineffaceable faces.
The recent times
have however seen some upsurge in the same. Natasha Poly, Karlie Kloss and off
latest the very cheeky Cara Delevingne- reckoned to be the next Kate Moss in
her social tendencies and runway presence alike- are some names that have
managed to carry forth the legacy of the mighty supermodel.
So here we look
at the most recent contenders for the next big thing to precede this
charismatic lot. Faces that have we been seeing incessantly on the runways, on
a rise in the sphere of advertising campaigns and that struck a convincing
chord with our very own fashion scout instincts. Our favorite faces of spring
summer 2014 and why they stand out for us:
·
Grace Mahary

Malaika Firth

o The
first black model since 1994 to feature in a Prada Campaign (Fall 2013-14). If
Cara be the next Kate, this Brit is deemed to be the next Naomi on the
catwalks.
·
Sam Rollinson
o The tomboyish appeal- check, the sharp cheek bones- check and oh the luscious lips. A face that conspicuously shines through the lot.
·
Edie Campbell
o Although she's been around the block for a while, Edie has been a refreshing addition to the
oddball lot of models. Wearing graffiti all over her body and arms lifted up at
Marc Jacobs’ final show for Louis Vuitton (SS 2014) will be an image
etched in the fashion for long.
