After last year’s Ford Supermodel of the World contest, won by Hyoni Kang, no one knew how much more of the adorably freckled Kate Somers we’d be seeing. Actually, quite a bit. She won over Marc Jacobs, walking in both of his New York shows. And she walked exclusively for Gianfranco Ferré in Milan. With a season like that, there’s hope for runners-up everywhere. —Kendall Herbst
