Model Watch Monday: Hello, Sunshine.

Meet Anastasia Krivosheeva, 19 from Russia. There isn't really any story here, she wasn't discovered while walking with some friends to school, shopping or tanning on the beach. Anastasia just walked into a modeling agency in Moscow and said, "Hello" ... and lucky for us she did.  She is now represented by Women Direct NY, Women Milan, Silent, Uno, Place Models, Premier Models Management, and her mother agency World Fashion. Can't wait to see this one evolve, someone shoot her for the cover of CHAOS stat ... with a stare like that, watch out, must contact Women Direct. ;)

Model Watch Monday: Ksenia, from Russia to NYC...

via Direct Women. This Russian stunner comes to us from Nizhny Novgorod (yes, have a moment with that one), Russia. Her name is Ksenia Golubeva, a Leo, born August 16th, and standing 5'11 she has already staked her claim on the catwalk. Ksenia has truly made her walk her money maker having walked for Dries van Noten, Jil Sanders, Issey Miyake, and others. Her jump to NYC was thanks to Women Direct. They snatched her up (not surprised why) and are giving her the momentum she needs to have some serious staying power in our lovely, fickle industry. I'm sure she'll be dominating editorials left and right soon enough.

Not too sure of her mother agency back in Russia, but who really cares when you've gone straight to the major leagues and got your New York City agency. Do you really need anyone else?

Model Watch Monday: Hello, Sunshine.

Meet this ray of sunshine, Anna Rudenko, 19, hailing from Ukraine-Kharkiv. This beauty was discovered while on her way to classes at her university. Anna has done a bit of traveling already and has been working the London market recently.

Anna hasn't made the jump over the pond to New York City [the land of the models] just yet; I do suspect she will very soon though. Keep your eyes peeled while looking through your favorite magazines these coming months, as you may just see her face popping up. With agencies like Premier, Women Paris & Milan, as well as Women Direct backing her she'll be all over the industry radar in no time.
