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.

What Model Doc Girl Model Reveals About the Fashion Industry, and What the Model Alliance is Doing About It

Clips of Girl Model, the ominous looking documentary about a 13-year-old Siberian girl’s foray into the world of modeling, more than piqued our interest when they popped up in March. And while we’d explored the murky back story of the film, we’d yet to see it in it’s entirety. So, naturally, we jumped at the chance to watch the full film at a special ‘fashion industry’ screening last week, hosted by the Model Alliance at the Sunshine Theater in New York. So did industry insiders like Natalie Joos, Scott Lipps, Milla Jovovich, along with a slew of models. Even before Girl Model was released, it caused quite a stir for touching upon such heated subjects as models’ ages, rights and working conditions, which the fashion industry has, in the past, tended to ignore or overlook. But thanks to organizations like the Model Alliance--and films like Girl Model--that's changing. Models’ working conditions and rights are finally being addressed by people in positions to actually enforce changes. And after watching this film, it’s clear that this new found awareness is coming not a moment too soon. Read on for our take on the film, plus find out what Model Alliance directors Sara Ziff and Jenna Sauers had to say about it.
