Fashion week familiarisation - the models

New York Fashion Week kicks off the month-long global schedule of shows this week, and over the course of the next few days we'll be introducing you to some of the names you need to know to get through the most stylish four weeks of the year. Today, we bring you the must-know models.


Currently ranked the world's number one model, Lara Stone is perhaps better known to many as Mrs David Walliams. With her trademark toothy smile and shock of baby blonde hair, Lara is also famous for her wobbly walk - credited to the fact that her feet are much smaller than sample size shoes! Check out a video of her clomping along the catwalk here.


Danish model Freja Beja Erichsen is currently ranked world number two, but with her shaggy rock chick cut and neck tattoos, she couldn't be any different to Lara's blonde bombshell style. Freja's layered midlength and grungy tousled texture is currently being touted as the new must-have cut, with Grazia saying, "Tis chestnut-brown layered cut is about to spark the kind of hair hysteria not seen since The Rachel". You have been warned!

Representing the European model contingent, Anja Rubik and Natasha Poly. These two are particularly typical of the beautiful blonde-haired, blue-eyed, super-tall, super-skinny breed of supermodels who appeared a couple of years ago.


Anja is one of few catwalk queens with short hair these days - OK, so it's not as versatile as a silky mane of extensions, but it certainly makes her stand out on the catwalk. Russian Natasha is the queen of an effortless updo - something of a Bardot in the making!

Keeping things pretty and simple, American Karlie Kloss and British Lily Donaldson. This rosy-cheeked duo keep things natural, with long, loose locks and barely-there styling. When your untouched tresses look this good, why complicate things? These two have racked up hundreds of catwalk miles between them, and thousands of magazine pages. Currently ranked at fifth and seventh most successful model, you're certain to see plenty of these two over the next four weeks!
