Monthly batch of hot new models to feast your eyes on
By Joseph Tenni

Paloma Jonas

Shaking things up Down Under, Paloma Jonas got her start as a finalist in a model contest organized by Chadwick Models in Sydney. Since then she's appeared in Aussie glossies from Oyster to Vogue. There's no stopping this Taurean.
Ksenia Maximova

After conquering Europe with campaigns for Gucci Rush, Chloé and Moschino, as well as editorials in Pop, i-D, Flair and Italian Vogue, red hot Russian Ksenia Maximova finally found strong management Stateside. Though she still calls Moscow home, the ruble-rouser is poised for world domination. Surrender now.
Trilby Doone

Sharing a name with a millinery style, willowy wunderkind Trilby Doone had an impressive first show season in New York, walking for Marc by Marc Jacobs, among other marquee names. But modeling may already be old hat for the sister of 90's model Raina Hamner and aspiring thespian who's been taking acting lessons on the side. Hats off to Trilby.
Richelle Dobson

Sexy Sasquatch Richelle Dobson can do no wrong. Having walked for Miu Miu, Fendi and Anna Molinari, and appearing in Harper's Bazaar, V Man, American Elle and Details, she's a good reason to stop blaming Canada.
Sydonie Herrera

Her career is moving at the speed of light, but the leggy Leo Sydonie Herrera isn't slowing down. With a look that could be described as equal parts Rie Rasmussen and Annie Morton, the bright-eyed French filly has racked up tearsheets from American Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, German Elle, Amica, British GQ and Italian Vanity Fair. She's our shooting star.
Dana Thompson

A baseball buff, Dana Thompson is in a league of her own. The extroverted Nebraska native first caught the eye of Terry Richardson, who shot her for both Another magazine and the current Sisley campaign. The all-star then scored the London Sunday Times, shot by Robert Wyatt, and the Aldo campaign alongside Model Mania alumna Kemp Muhl. The girl plays to win.
Barbara Fialho

Samba-loving Barbara Fialho has all the right moves. The Brazilian tail-wagger can be seen in the American and British editions of Elle, Interview, Surface and French, as well as campaigns for Diesel and Wolford.

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
