While most high-school sophomores hit the books in September, 15-year-old (!) Keke Lindgard hit the runways. Signing with Wilhelmina this year, the Hawaii native debuted at the spring rag & bone show, walking alongside runway veterans like Sasha Pivovarova and Lily Donaldson. By the end of New York Fashion Week, the Bridget Hall look-alike had also walked Vera Wang and Tommy Hilfiger's runways. Casting directors in Milan and Paris also fell for Keke's sun-kissed, American look: She booked Bottega Veneta, Dolce & Gabbana, Louis Vuitton, and Valentino, among others. Sounds like more fun than studying.
