It's safe to say that Alexander Wang's reign as fashion's wonder kid isn't ending anytime soon. So when he says that a certain someone has captured his eyes, we drop what we're doing and turn our attention to whoever he's endorsing. That certain someone is Parisian model Aymeline Valade. The designer proclaims, "Aymeline is very special. She's the girl that I always think about, that I want to dress. When we met, I thought, 'Let's be friends!' She's the kind of girl you want to sit down and have a conversation with. She's not a flavor of the month, she's constant for me."
Aymeline (she's just one of those people you want to be on first name basis with) is a 25-year old classically trained dancer who also studied communications and advertising at university. Although she has already worked for Balenciaga and has posed for Interview magazine, her opening walk at Wang's Fall 2011 show is her NYFW debut. Aymeline's look embodies a sort of maturity and self-assurance, mixed with the right amount of toughness and cool. If she epitomizes the Wang girl, as the designer himself says, then we can be rest assured that her career will be a long and exciting one. More pictures after the jump!
