Irina M. | New Faces We...Contemplate
Once in a while I come across a new face that stops me still. Causing a combination of captivation and bewilderment. The cause being the obtrusive uniqueness of the girls beauty. Usually, an indicator of possible greatness. A kind of face that usually Supreme loves.
That was the case with Irina M. A new face with Storm Management.
I've been sitting on this girl for a two week now, not sure what to make of her. So I poked a photographer friend (Chad Muller) to get his opinion. Here was his reaction:
"Best new face I saw this year. This girl is beyond cool. One great find by Storm, possibly their best new face. The girl possesses not only the right stats but, and far more importantly, the right depth. With a timeless grace and beauty, she also seems to possess an abundant amount of edge. Rare, even amongst seasoned pros. She'll go on to do great things. No doubt."
There you have it.
Will Irina rise to greatness? Will she land a Vogue Italia cover in 2009. And will Supreme pick her up? 2009 will answer these questions, meanwhile here is a look at her portfolio and love to hear your feedback.
Oh, come on. She's too thin and she looks a lot like Gollum in Lord of the Rings.
she is so beautiful....uniqe
Lou is right. I immediately thought of Golem when I saw this picture.
Yeah, looks like gollum in one picture..but i think she still looks beautiful
My precious, my precious!
she looks like a poor ugly desperate 12 years old forced into prostitution.
I agree! She looks like Gollum...LOL! Although she looks beautiful in her other photos, but on this one, she doesn't look hot nor sexy. I think she needs more modeling workshop to look naturally beautiful in her photos.
it s gollum!!!
lou is right! she is thin, her face looks always angry and she is absolutly not beautyful. she won´t be a topmodel or something.
She can't help looking like Smeagol, but the poor girl should at least be allowed to eat a little bit every now and then. Not too much of course . . . this is fashion after all.
She will be a star.
The first thing that came to my mind was Lord of the Rings as well...
GOLLUMMMMMMMMMM!!
Irena is beautiful, and thankfully, she doesn't look like everyone else that you obsess about. But what's this comment about the 'right stats?' I'm really just here to tell you and your stats to go fuck yourself. If you do nothing else all year, I'd ask you to spend 5 minutes thinking about the ways in which stat-worshiping creeps like you harm people across the globe. I don't think you've got the guts to think about yourself for that long.
She's definitely interesting, that's for sure. But high fashion isn't always pretty-it makes you think. She can look really different from picture to picture and that is something that is valued in a model. I think she'll do great and I think she's gorgeous...that one pic. does look like Gollum, though.
She is fantastic. A true gem.
Hmm, she really has a unique face. No wonder people have different reactions about her. I think she has a unique facial structure that can strike anyone as beautiful (or otherwise). Models are usually thin, of course. She can pose and it looks so natural. That's what matters most. :D
