    Rosie Tupper with DNA models of New York

    Rosie has been on the cover of Vogue Australia, Vogue Mexico, and walked the DKNY F/W 2009 show among others. I almost wanted to offer her a canoe to paddle down Lafayette street as the rain today was non-stop. Instead, I offered her my umbrella while I took a picture. Thanks Rosie!

  • Anna de Rijk (DNA NY) and Sara Blomqvist (DNA NY)

    Sara B. at London Fashion Week

    Besides both having been photographed by Steven Meisel and both being represented by the same NY agency (DNA), they are also roommates.

  • Magdalena Frackowiak (DNA)

    Magdalena Frackowiak (DNA)

    Polish born Magdalena's name in Hebrew origins actually means 'from the tower'. I'd actually say she IS the tower given her January editorial in Italian Vogue with Steven Meisel, her catwalks down Balmain, Balenciaga, Givenchy, Lanvin, and her great outfit as seen here.

  • Epaulettes: the model angle on the trench coat trend

    Epaulettes: the model angle on the trench coat trend

    Liu Wen (Marilyn NY) with a bow tied belt. The first asian model to sign with Estée Lauder. The first asian model to walk the Victoria's Secret runway. Needless to say, the first photo in this post.

    Hind Sahli (DNA NY) also with a bow tied belt. If you ask me, she rocks this hair cut. Look for her editorial in the May issue of VOGUE Italia by shot by Steven Meisel.

  • Jessica Clarke (New Zealand)

    Jessica looking great after the Giorgio Armani show in Milan. Jessica also had 3 different looks in the Mulberry FW2011 show, making me wonder if Mulberry will use her for off runway gigs too.

  • Tara Gill (DNA) walks Jean Paul Gaultier 7 consecutive shows

    Tara Gill (DNA) walks Jean Paul Gaultier 7 consecutive shows

    The first time I met Tara was when I shot her for Teen Vogue.com at Fall/Winter 2009 Paris shows. Little did I know that then Tara was well on her way to walking 7 consecutive shows for Jean Paul Gaultier, an influential show on the fashion season circuit and most certainly an accomplishment worthy of noting:

    Spring/Summer 2018 -- 2x
    Spring Couture 2009 -- 1x
    Fall/Winter 2009 -- 3x
    Fall Couture 2009 -- 2x
    Spring/Summer 2018 -- 3x
    Spring Couture 2010 -- 2x
    Fall/Winter 2010 -- 2x
