Taryn Davidson
Canadian Taryn Davidson has already become a favourite here at FASHION, posing in our February issue, but is also causing a sensation worldwide, from the runways to the pages of other top fashion magazines such as W and German Vogue. She made her runway debut at the Spring ’08 shows as an exclusive for Calvin Klein in New York and Jil Sander in Milan. In Paris she walked for top shows, including Hermès, Nina Ricci and Lanvin. Her first campaign (with many likely to follow) is for United Colors of Benetton Spring ’08.
JIL SANDER Spring 2008
Finnish model Suvi Koponen got her start in 2005 by winning the reality television show, Model School, which is similar to America’s Next Top Model. Not long after her victory, campaigns started to come through – she replaced Natalia Vodianova as the face of Calvin Klein. Past campaigns also include Mulberry and Balenciaga, and she is currently the face of Blumarine. Gracing the covers of Paris Vogue Beauté and Dazed & Confused in 2007, look out for her in ’08 on the pages of V, W and British Vogue.
Californian model Shannan Click’s steady uphill ride to become a break-out face in fashion began campaign and cover heavy. Her campaigns have included Guess?, Longchamp, BCBG Max Azria, Alexander Wang, Emporio Armani and Prada, and she’s been on covers for Japanese Vogue and French Revue de Modes. Click’s editorials can be seen in more youthful publications such as Dazed & Confused and Nylon. More recently, the page turner was frequently spotted on the runways of the Spring ’08 shows; for Moschino, Celine, Elie Saab, Lanvin and Balenciaga.
