ModelManiaDecember'98 You
may have seen their faces but chances are you don’t know their names—yet!
In the first of his monthly installments, Hint’s model editor, Joseph
Tenni, rounds up hot model names to watch and to drop.
Franziska
(dna) This Berlin bunny
has a modern look that photographers are beginning to go crazy for. Equal
parts Amber Valletta and Michele Hicks, Franziska Rieder is already starring
in campaigns for Morgan, Esprit and Diesel Jeans. Look out for her in the
new CK one commercials (print and television). She’ll be inescapable next
year.
Linnea
(IMG) She has an ice cold
demeanor, but natural beauty Linnea is red-hot. Already a favorite on the
runway, and with several Italian Elle stories under her cinch-belt,
this tall fashion find deserves to do well. Diehard modelspotters will
know her from the Douglas Anderson campaign in the recent issues of Italian
Vogue.
Lia
(Next) In the tradition
of Linda and Shalom, this pale beauty is the latest to emerge from the
Canadian model assembly line. She’s the new face of Monsoon and is in all
the glossies that matter. Move over Celine and Shania, Lia Crowe is Canada’s
brightest star.
Danita
(Elite) Elite’s saving grace
may well be All-American blonde, Danita Angell -- an excellent walker who
stormed all the right runways this last season. This Oregon-born stunner
has already appeared in Italian Vogue and was recently shot for
Mademoiselle by Walter Chin.
Kari-Anne
(Next) Kari-Anne Liverud’s career
went into turnaround when she changed from blonde to brunette and switched
from the grandma division at Ford to the playpen at Next. Currently the
face of Aussie fashion house Saba, Kari-Anne’s piercing blue eyes will
soon be peering at you from all directions.
Sienna
(Marilyn) Blonde, blue-eyed
Sienna Guillroy is making serious money, with recent advertising accounts
including Joseph, Hugo Boss, Toni & Guy, Emporio Armani and Max &
Co. The daughter of some 60's folk fossil, Sienna is stepping out with
Brit screen god Nick Moran. Check her out in the latest issue of British
Vogue, shot by Mario Testino.
Vicky
(Marilyn) This big-lipped
Swedish teen is taking over Europe -- next stop the world. Don’t be surprised
if she is the next big campaign princess. She is the Ace of Base of the
modeling world.
