Model Mondays: Eva Arlauskaite

Eva was a favorite of mine at the start of the shows back in March, and her runway work for Prada, Miu Miu, and Givenchy did not disappoint. Somehow, though, I got a little sidetracked with the explosive careers of my other two front-runners, namely Irina K. and Anabela, while Eva's career progressed more gradually. Her recent performance in a Qvest Germany editorial, however, has peaked my interest yet again and got my fingers crossed in hopes of some more major work. The girl knows how to work a camera without any extra glitz- which is saying a lot for someone who only started getting in front of it a few short months ago. This Lithuanian stunner is represented by D-Max back home, IMG in Paris and New York, and Women in Milan. With a line up like that, Eva's career is set to erupt with just as much force as her contemporaries.

Model Mondays: Eva Helene Skarvig


This week's pick has been in the game a little over a year now, and is slowly but surely establishing herself as a force to be reckoned with. Her Danish roots provoked early Freja comparisons, but Eva's soft features spared her any clone accusations. Now with IMG, she got her start as a competitor in the Ford Supermodel of the Year. Eva didn't win the contest, but somehow I think her spot in Prada's fall show was a nice enough consolation prize. Recently Ms. Skarvig has been keeping busy with spring campaigns for Vera Wang and TopShop and editorials in Cover and V. If her frequent appearances in the cruise shows are any indication, Eva's star is showing no sign of dimming just yet.

Model Mondays: Helen Feskens

prettypretty.be
Another week, another Belgian. This former Supreme model has been flying under the radar for a while now as she finishes up her schooling, but has still managed to shoot for Dazed & Confused, Lula, and Italian Glamour as well as walk for Yohji Yamamoto and Charles Anastase. Her hair is much shorter now than in the above photo, but I find Supreme's cutting practices a tad questionable, so I'll just pretend it never changed. From the looks of Helen's Dominique Models portfolio she has had ample work around Belgium, but for now we can just keep our fingers crossed that the rest of Europe will soon take notice.

Model Mondays: Coryse Smet


This Belgian has strong features without a hint of passé bug-eyed-ness about her. Coryse is on the road to greatness. Signed with DNA in New York and Women Milan, here's to hoping we'll be seeing this feline beauty setting the catwalk on fire next season.

Model Mondays: Laragh McCann

This 16-year-old Dubliner's extraterrestrial beauty is bound to make waves this coming season. She's already captured the attention of major industry players- walking for Marc Jacobs, Dries Van Noten, and Prada as well as shooting the stunning Valentino Red campaign with Mert & Marcus. Hopefully the luck of the Irish will be on Laragh's side this spring once she finishes up school and begins to pursue modelling full-force.

Model Mondays: Evgenia Mandzhieva

Asian models have been taking center stage as of late, and one especially has caught my eye. 21-year-old Evgenia Mandzhieva was born in Kalmykia, Russia and was discovered last year while on a trip to Moscow. Since then, she has appeared in Vogue Paris, Vogue China, and Flair among others and walked shows for Hermes, Marc Jacobs, and Jean Paul Gaultier. She's been on my radar for a while now, but her recent interview with Trace Magazine really got me hooked. "“You feel courage and energy," Evgenia says of her fashion week experiences. "You get to the end of the runway and hear click, click, click and feel so nice.” Adorable, non? Check her out over at Trump Models New York and City Management Paris and keep a look out for her upcoming Moschino campaign.
