Our savvy photographer, Ashley Jahncke, has been snapping away at Resort 2011 shows, and getting the scoop from all the models.

In her work, Ashley caught model Dorothea Barth Jorgensen shooting and filming backstage and on the street. So she asked why, and found out that Dorothea has her own blog, Displaced Bones.

Dorothea's blog tracks her travels as a model, from backstage, to parties, to hanging out with her model friends including Hanne Gaby and Valerija Kelava. We like her blog because it gives models, who are usually seen and not heard, a voice. It also gives us normal folk an insight into this crazy world.

The 15 Most Buzzed About Models of 2010

I don't like to do a lot of end of year reflecting about anything, except maybe all the shoes I wish I had bought but didn't (a girl can dream, right?), but 2010 has seen some major model mayhem. 2010 saw more diversity in the typically cookie-cutter world of modeling. Was it perfect? Of course not, but the modeling industry may be taking much needed steps into the right direction. The top models of 2010 came in all body types, genders, ethnicities, ages, and sexual orientations, proving that there's a lot more to being a successful model than a symmetrical face and a size zero frame. Click though to see our list of the models that made made it big in 2010.

Monday Model Roundup: Tanya D.'s New Name, DNA's Brits and Marilyn's Margherita

Truth: we love models. So that's why we try our bestest to stay up to date on the ins-and-outs of the modeling world. (It's a crazy place, for sure.) Luckily a little birdy helped us out, with all this useful information. For starters Belarussian blonde Tanya Dziahileva has moved to Marilyn in Paris. Not such big news, except that her new model card spells her last name as "Dyagileva." I'm sure the pronunciation in Belarussian is similar, but for us English-speaking folks, Dyagileva is no easier to pronounce or spell. Perhaps her new agents wanted to give the model a fresh start? I mean, she has been working since age 13.... Also heading to Marilyn is Margherita Missoni, who leaves IMG's boards for the Paris-based agency. It's an interesting choice for an international socialite, since Marilyn has almost no celebrities or socialites, while IMG's board includes fellow social butterflies Julia Reston Roitfeld, Liv Tyler, and Elisa Sendaoui. This could mean Margherita is attempting to go a more high-fashion route, although her family ties to Missoni have kept her from branching too far away. She basically wears Missoni to every event, which is more dedication and loyalty than most models show to anything.
