Milan is off to a lithe, pretty-faced start!
Edita Vilkeviciute, who appears in the spring campaigns for D&G and Pringle of Scotland, pulled off surprise opener
and closer at
Burberry, more or less ousting the label's reigning queen,
Agyness Deyn, from the glory roles. We’re guessing a lucrative campaign’s not far behind. Also of major note:
Guinevere van Seenus opened
Gianfranco Ferré. This American’s bucked some modeling stereotypes: She’s over 30 and is
almost normal size. WILL WONDERS NEVER CEASE?! Moving along, runway staple
Anabela Belikova’s been doing her thing in Milan as well; she opened
Jil Sander and closed
Moschino Cheap & Chic. Today’s winner, however, is
Daria Strokous. In her biggest booking to date, she closed Jil Sander, and perfectly nailing the irate model face during her final stomp down the runway. —
