Other than the misnomer, there's nothing mild about South Australian siren Vanessa Milde. The jetsetting Gemini, whose ballet teacher suggested modeling, ruled the spring collections, walking for Chanel, Lanvin, Nina Ricci and Loewe. She's coming on strong.

Captivating Angelika Kocheva has the world on a leash. After stalking the runways of Calvin Klein, Ralph Lauren, Marc Jacobs, Jil Sander, Christopher Kane and Alberta Ferretti, the Ukrainian mannequin (Ukrainequin?) scored campaigns for Prada and Philosophy. We, too, are slaves to the Slav.

Since fleeing her frosty home of Latvia, first-name-only Danguole has apparently found Latin love, posing for the Italian editions of Elle, Amica and Marie Claire. No surprise, really, considering the Baltic beauty (and, by the way, spelling bee champion) was discovered in the warm air of a plant nursery.

Chinese charmer Anna Wang turns heads wherever she goes, especially back home, where she's graced the cover of Chinese Vogue three times and Elle no fewer than twenty. In all, we're talking 130 covers. Look for the young mother in the latest Australian Vogue and the new Maybelline ads. Maybe she's born with it...

All-American saint Ali Stephens had a stellar debut show season, walking for Prada, Miu Miu, Balenciaga, Chloé, Celine, Dries Van Noten and Givenchy. The Utah teen and state-ranked sprinter, who's already appeared in Another and Pop, shows no signs of slowing down.

Agents for Siberian stunner and karaoke fan Laura Blokhina must be working overtime. After strutting for Valentino, Costume National, Alexander McQueen, Christian Lacroix, Luella and (of course) Iceberg, leggy Laura can currently be seen in W, as well as the pages of the German and Spanish Vogue.

From a small farming village in Brazil comes sizzling Claudia Seiler, one of few South American exports to have a Prada runway exclusive. Then came shoots for Dazed & Confused, i-D, Russian Vogue and V—all hitting newsstands soon. Now based in New York, she loves Brazilian BBQ-hopping around the city.

If Rad Hourani were writing this blurb, it would be over already. That's because, for the soon-to-explode French-Canadian designer, it's all about extreme minimalism. Thus, the concept behind this one-size-fits-all, unisex, sleeveless T-shirt—printed with the dates and times of a calendar—is that it can be worn by anyone, anytime.

01, 22, 16. Nope, it’s not bingo night; it's the numerical filing system at Maison Martin Margiela. Adding to the mathematical fun is a new line of fine jewelry in absurdist proportions and scale. Also this month: Comme de Garçons for H&M, Louis Vuitton and more. By Franklin Melendez

"Madonna starves herself on a raw macrobiotic kosher vegan kaballah diet and works out three hours a day to maintain the physique of a 12-year-old gymnast boy, and then has the cheeks of a 300-pound woman implanted into her face. And her forehead is like a plastic baby's bottom. It's like Nicole Kidman's forehead at the height of her botox addiction, and we all remember how unfortunate that era was."
