Natalia, Sasha, Jessica, Gemma — we all know the runways' favorite girls. But every Fashion Week brings a crop of fresh faces. From a former cross-country star to the new face of Nina Ricci, here’s who will be dominating the New York catwalks this February.
Ali Stephens
At just 16, this former cross-country star from Utah already has major shows under her belt. After signing to Elite in September 2007, she hit the runways in Europe mere weeks later. She debuted at Prada (as an exclusive) in Milan, then proceeded to walk the top shows in Paris: Balenciaga, Chanel, and Givenchy. She also snagged Chloé spring campaign, her solo face replacing the Anja Rubik, Shalom Harlow, and Freja Beha triumvirate. And she’s nailed down the M Missoni and ck by Calvin Klein ads as well. Confirmed to walk in New York for the first time this February, the blue-eyed beauty has a good chance of being in Francisco Costa's Calvin Klein lineup.
Courtney Smerski
This Washingtonian is following in the footsteps of September’s breakthrough blondes Siri Tollerød and Toni Garrn. Last season she was booked with rising designers like Jenni Kayne and Chris Benz. But her career really took off after landing the Mario Sorrenti–photographed Nina Ricci spring 2008 campaign alongside Karlie Kloss. Expect her New York show schedule to be upgraded this time around.
