Since when WWD cares about who walks what in menswear season? Since fashion houses cast new faces rather than relying on costlier established models in order to reduce the pain of bad economic. And since when those boys down there are new faces? Since their creepy agents lie about the age in order to get their boys on top !
I am just kidding. lol But we did notice some of the NY magazine's model profile states are ridiculously funny, seems like they hired an 18 year old who is not familiar with any year-counting before the year he was born! At first we thought: Er.. Some of Amy's colleges are...just stupid. But then, just like what we said, its getting ridiculous, and then we learned that Some of Amy's colleges are really stupid, but not anyone in the model profile updating office. So looks like someone must has been really naughty, maybe it was becos santa claus won't grand them the "Please make my male models 2 or 3 years younger in stat" wish.
So they lied. It is one thing to lie about the age of a real new face before anybody knows how to spell his hometown name. It is definitely a whole new other thing of lying about - to quote WWD-costlier established models and faithfully expecting no body will find out about it.
Com'on! Is there anyone who thinks that this is gonna work, at all? Who are they trying to fool? Anyone who works in fashion more than a year could immediately pick a two times model in a group of 17 rookies. Because it is that obvious! I can prove to you right away, take WWD's face time for example, tell me any model that you've not seen his face before. Tell me now. You will know right? Because we all know when a boy is enlisted by major magazines, he'd cut some cakes for at least one season around. So you know what am I saying when you find out a boy is acclaimed to be 20 when obviously he's 22/23, you'd laugh.
But this has nothing to do with WWD's list, although we think its useless and paper wastes, we are glad that Lenz and Jacob made it. Lenz and Simon and Tyler all landed a major campaign, ( CK and Givenchy and Dolce). Its weird to call them new faces.
