Our favorite all-American model Hilary Rhoda covers the latest issue of chic LA-based surf mag FOAM. The editorial is Rhoda's first since moving over to Women Management from IMG, and we love that she's doing some less commercial work. With her rocking beach bod, dark brows and piercing blue eyes, Rhoda makes the fiercest surfer girl we've ever seen. Advanced copies of the mag hit newsstands today.
We're always curious as to why we don't see Hilary Rhoda in more magazines. Maybe it's because she's so rich that she doesn't have to do editorials? Maybe it's because she doesn't like doing them? Maybe it's because her All-American looks don't work in high fashion? Yes, we realize that final suggestion is preposterous. But Rhoda's card for her new New York agency, Women, is more directional than anything we've seen her do recently. And that's not saying much. We're wondering if the move from IMG--best known for repping commercial models like Tyra Banks--means that Ms. Estee Lauder is looking to book some Love editorials.
Marloes Horst: Height 5'9\", blonde hair, blue eyes Those lips, those eyes. We can't really find the words to describe this fresh-faced Dutch beauty. Since 2007 Marloes has graced a few magazine covers and has appeared in a handful of editorials, but we're betting that 2010 will be the year she really takes the modeling world by storm. We just want to see more of her, please!" ?> Hannah Holman: Height 5'8\", blonde hair, blue eyes This American girl has some serious Italian fashion cred. Hannah made her debut in New York over the summer when she closed Prada's Resort show and opened for Miu Miu's the next day. And recall those pretty fall Miu Miu ads? They featured Hannah. Miuccia's taken quite a liking to the young model. Who will fall for her next?" ?> Ginta Lapina: Height 5'10\", blonde hair, blue eyes Ginta's striking features caught our attention, but it is her versatility in editorials that has held our affection. And it's this same convincing versatility that reminds us a lot of another model: Daria W. Ginta can be sensual in Vogue Italia or playful in Dazed. We don't mind which role she plays, we'll take her any way we can get her." ?> Frida Gustavsson: Height 5'11\", blonde hair, blue-gray eyes Frida only just signed with IMG this past year, but her star is rising rapidly--she was the fourth most requested model of the spring season and walked in a staggering 60 shows! We first noticed Frida after Dior's S/S10 show. (The baby-faced Swede can really rock a red lip.) Will Frida break her own record and walk in even more shows this season? Stay tuned!" ?> Nimue Smit: Height 5'11\", blonde hair, blue eyes Nimue's walked in her fair share of shows (Stateside and abroad) and has been featured in a number of campaigns and editorials. Her most recent Armani ads left us wanting more--those eyes are bewitching! We've fallen for Nimue's pixie features and are looking forward to seeing a lot more of her." ?> Valerija Kelava: Height 5'9.5\", brown hair, blue-green eyes This super-new brunette is bound to make a splash all over fashion week. After opening Chris Kane's SS10 show, she's been featured in Proenza's and Prada's pre-fall presentations and most recently shot by Juergen Teller for Celine's SS10 ads. We're obsessed with her edgy bangs and intense stare, which reminds us of our other current obsessions Jaqueline and Iris. We think she'd be perfect at Givenchy, don't you?" ?>
