Sui He Is Thursday’s Top Model

Three of America’s most iconic designers showed their fall collections on the final day of New York Fashion Week. Francisco Costa at Calvin Klein selected this season’s leading face, Daphne Groeneveld, to open for the second season in a row, while Lara Stone closed it. Argentine Tati Cotliar, who appears in this season’s Prada campaign, scored the first look at Isaac Mizrahi, and Brazilian top model Bruna Tenorio had the last look at Ralph Lauren. But, in what is this season’s most surprising casting to date, casting director Jennifer Starr chose Chinese newcomer Sui He to open Lauren’s runway. This marks the first time in recent history that an Asian model has opened for the venerable American label. See these key opening and closing looks in the slideshow ahead.
